I love Jesus but I curse a little

I love Jesus, but I curse a little....

Okay, y'all guys, that's a damn lie. I curse a LOT, like, ALL THE WORDS. I say them. Probably at least a few times a day, just ask my friend Rachael who can hear every breath I take over our shared wall in our gallery offices. I do love Jesus, that part is true.

On Saturdays and Sundays, I curse even more, and I say "Jesus!"

Sometimes, I am asking him to intervene. For instance, when the Razorbacks were down 21-zip, Stephen and I were sitting in Chili's getting our pregame on before the Texas Tech kickoff and after checking the Razorback score, I said, "Jesus". In my heart I was begging him to get into those Hogs and help 'em out. I mean, seriously, y'all guys, I thought it was bad then! And you know what else? I heart me some Gus Malzahn. I am on the Gus Bus, every game, rooting for Auburn except when they bend my Razorbacks over and spank the hell out of 'em! Shit.

Sometimes, I am praising him, like when my Razorbacks pulled out that TD at the end of the TCU game in overtime a few weeks ago. It was a frenzy of praise in our house, "Jesus! Thank you Lord, Sweet Baby Jesus!" and I meant it with all of my tiny little grinch heart.

And then sometimes, I am just calling out to him, like, "Dude, are you seeing this shit?" This was the case at the Texas Tech game this weekend.

And before I get any further into this, let me just say, that generally speaking, we really love the folks we sit around at the Tech games. We get to sit in the section next to where all the players' parents sit, and the group of us in our little block of season tickets are all pretty passionate about our team. The seats immediately in front of us are purchased by maybe a group or something, because it is different people every game, but the same folks that were showing up last year if that makes any sense. So you know, familiar faces, but not friends. Acquaintances.

So we are standing the entire time on Saturday night, rooting for our Red Raiders. The stadium is buzzing with anxiety and excitement, the place is packed and our boys are playing well. It was glorious compared to the previous game. Keke Coutee, which is super fun to say, is running down the field, slowing a bit on his way out of bounds on the Visitor side and an OU player, who is supposedly hurt, and not even dressed out, Samaje Perine, shoves the hell out of Coutee, to the point that he grabs another OU player to keep from hitting the damn ground, and no flag is pulled. In my anger, I call out, "Jesus!", you know, in my "Dude, are you seeing this shit?" tone, and the man standing in front of me turns around and says to me, "Yeah, He walked on water and you shouldn't use His name like that."

So I'm kind of shocked, because a) Mmmkay. and b) he isn't my dad, but I give him a small smile feeling a bit like an ass for offending someone.

Shortly thereafter, The OU QB, Baker Mayfield picked up a personal foul for taunting and the student section, along with the man in front of me, who just reprimanded me, starts shouting "F*ck you, Baker"! Hypocrite much? Sheesh.

With me, you get what you see. I am exactly this girl. I love Jesus, but I curse a little.

And to all y'all who are whining about Tech being hard on OU, get your thumb out of your damn mouth and quit acting like you've never been a passionate asshole for your team. Pussies.

#allthethangs

Near the end of 2016, one night while Stephen and I were lying in bed, I told him, "2017 is going to be our year. I can feel it. I know it. We are going to have all tha thangs," and then last night, he reminded me of this and *GASP* told me I was right! This year has been wild, but this summer has been bountifully, overwhelmingly perfect. Obviously, you know we closed on our home, which was hitting the biggest goal we have had for the last (almost) four years. We also bought a new vehicle, which we desperately needed, but were holding out until after we closed on our home, you know, 'just in case'. There is something else  that we have been wishing/hoping/praying for since I've known Stephen, and it has finally come to fruition. She's here y'all, and not just for her required 42 days this summer. She's here. She is going to school here, I just dropped her off for her first day this morning. She is making friends, learning to drive, and buildi...

SO CLOSE!

Y'all guys, OHEMGEE, y'all guys! We are now less than THREE weeks away from closing on our home and moving in. WHAAAAT?!?! I need to get busy! Anyone wanna volunteer to come help me pack? This weekend, next weekend, or the weekend after that, I'm totally free... you know, for packing. Come on and make a trip to A-Town! We got wind and dirt for days, you can't even imagine! I'll wine and dine ya', take you to Cadillac Ranch, and tell you how pretty you are. SWEAR IT. Seriously though, so much to do and I want to do it all right now! We are beyond ecstatic. For one, our final rent payment cleared our account this week, and it was one of the best feelings in the world. Knowing that after 3 years of saving and planning, we are about to move into a home that is ours. Speaking of the rent thing, it got my brain wondering how much money we have spent in rent in the last 3 and a half years... Do you want to know? Its insanity. SEVENTY TWO THOUSAND DOLLARS. Gone, jus...

TWENTYEIGHTEEN Y'ALL GUYS!

Y'all. How has another year already gone by? And seriously, has it really been almost five months since I blogged last? What the actual F?!? Where did 2017 go? I wasn't done kicking ass and taking names yet... honestly though, I'm not even a little sad its over. I got a whole new freaking year to kill it. Right? I'm pretty sure I have hit those years that my parents used to talk about 'time flying'. SLOW DOWN. Or, you know, speed the hell up, like, get me right to retirement, I'm moving to Honduras! jaykay, jaykay. I am loving all the kids, and soaking up all the memories. I know. It only happens once. all that. So many of my high school friends/acquaintances have either just had their last baby, or are about to. And I'll be honest, I'm super jealous. There have been tears. Many. And I don't even like to cry. But then, I start doing some simple math, and I'm like, I will not even be 45 yet when my youngest graduate high school... y'all ...
