Just the Facts

TGIF
yes...thank god it is friday. this means in two weeks i will be at TMS (Texas Motor Speedway)! Can't wait!

Blogging
i have been doing this blogging thing for about a year now. it has been an interesting learning experience. i have found it to be somewhat fun. i never kept a diary or journal as a child--i guess i just wasn't very disciplined enough. This is soooooo much better. i found several interesting "blogs" during this process, some i read every day with out fail and others...well, come on people, if you want to keep me interested post something---damn it! i will be the first to admit that blogging takes time--some days i don't have it, but here lately i have been some what a fanatic about making sure i post something of some interest. for those of you who have recently ventured into the "blogasphere" welcome. it's free and definately way cheaper than a therapist.

Squish
i don't usually talk too much about things in my personal life on this particular blog, but i just have to on this one thing. i had my first mammogram yesterday--that's right folks i got "SQUISHED". it wasn't as bad as i had played it out in my head--i was thinking there it was going to be some medievel torture device the way my doctor described it, but it wasn't all that bad--i was in there maybe 15 minutes. the lady who was there was pretty nice--could have been a little more friendlier and understanding of why i was there, but all in all not too bad of an experience for me---everything turned out ok. so don't be afraid of the Squish!

March Madness
March Madness has struck again! last night Duke (#1 seed) was beaten by LSU...Gonzaga was beaten by UCLA after Gonzaga DOMINATED the entire game--UCLA scored the last 11 points of the game...and Texas beat West Virginia...even though i am all about state pride---i really wanted W VA to win...as an alum from TTU it is very difficult for me to rout for Texas to win in anything...i will admit i did want Texas to beat USC in the rose bowl--state pride and all, plus all the media was just falling all over USC--Texas clearly was the better team at that point. Last night's results really screwed up my husband's bracket--HE ALWAYS PICKS DUKE TO GO TO THE FINAL FOUR--not this year baby! I hope Texas doesn't win the tourney--UGH--that will mean more people wearing burnt orange--not a good color on most people.

NASCAR
Last but certainly not least---NASCAR! It's short track time! I love to watch short track racing--all the beatin' and bangin' going on--tempers flaring--makes for some EXCELLENT racing! Good Luck boys!
