wow....

weirdly enough at 2am, i'm feeling this strange sensation that is driving me to burst out in song. what should i sing---oh what?

a little U2? maybe a little old school Queen? Oh, I don't know--maybe relive my days of yore and bust out into "Bye Bye Bye?"

no, no dear readers, i think i'll try something a little different--yes different, but a perfect fit for my sentiments on the day:

In old Ohio there's a team
That's known throughout the land
Eleven warriors brave and bold,
Whose fame will ever stand.
And when the ball goes over,
Our cheers will reach the sky,
Ohio Field will hear again
The Buckeye Battle Cry!

Drive, Drive on down the field,
Men of the scarlet and gray;
Don't let them through that line,
We've got to win this game today,
COME ON OHIO!
Smash through to victory,
We cheer you as you go!
Our honor defend we will fight
to the end for OHIO!

wow--that was pretty good--but i don't know that i'm through--

Fight the team across the field
Show them Ohio's here,
Set the earth reverberating
With a mighty cheer,
Rah! Rah! Rah!
Hit them hard and see how they fall,
Never let that team get the ball,
Hail, hail, the gang's all here,
So let's win that old conference now.

not understanding, sweet reader? oh, soon and very soon you will....all you need to know is that...

I LOVE IT WHEN THE OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY BEATS MICHIGAN!

it's especially delicious when it's done at the big house, enemy territory.

If this means you miss church this morning and/or choir practice there will be trouble.

Just so you know.

Big Brother is watching you.

Bummer. Ok so my Michigan support is linked to a t-shirt. But... Bummer. Perhaps an OSU t-shirt would change my mind... ;-)

I tried to call you today (once again) and you aren't there and I have lost all confidence that you will ever call me back. Just wanted to let you know that back in the good ol' O-H-I-O we are having our first official day of snow!!!! They say it's going to be 2-3 inches but we'll see. Perfect timing, I suppose, since the hot water heater went out last night...
CALL BACK YOUR SISTER DANG IT!!!!!!

Jo- I don't speak 'proper English' but if by 'your drive tried to give birth' you mean my transmission went out on my car. Yes, Yes it did. If that's not what you meant...then I am kind of scared on what you did actually mean.

hahaha--i think she meant our frontyard ash, not your transmission. hahaha.

you're the one that was dying to tell me about pregnant landscaping and you can't make the connection.

HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! THAT'S HILARIOUS. Well I was confused on what she meant and I did the WORST thing you could do in that situation. I took advice from mom. HAHAHA!!! Sorry Jo. It's quite clear to me know what you meant by that. =)

Okay, Brit and Ash, I DO read your blog every time you post. It clears that I am a topic of conversation from time to time. Just remember at some point in time you too will be a parent and it'll all come back to you. (Both of you) It's my understanding with each generation it comes back worse. Just imagine!!!

Yes, I also just read my typo. So no comments.

Ha Ha Ha! Ash, you are hilarious!! I have no idea how you jumped to the idea I was referring to your car... But it gave me a mighty good laugh! What is it with you Lenhoff's keep making me cry with laughter?! Priceless.
The Lenhoff Mom: Can I call you T-Lizzle??
I would take your advice, I think it's sound.

Jo:
You can call me T-Lizzle ANY TIME you want.... especially if you take my advise.

There seems to be lack of respect for my vast knowledge and experience in the US. It appears the UK is much more tolerant of advice, comments, observations, given by parents, specifically moms in the US. What's that about?

P.S. Brit:
It's amazing how an entirely different subject can morph out of your original posting. Oh Yeah.. I MISS YOU!!! Kisses

Jo-I really honestly don't know how I got that you were talking about my transmission. I guess I was a little thrown off by the fact that you referred to my yard as 'the drive' I mean...the only thing I can relate the word drive to is my car. Not to mention I am easily confused....

As far as you taking advice from my mom?? Come on Jo. Do you really want to take it from someone who can't even spell the word advice. Do as you wish, but don't be surprised if her advice doesn't steer you in the direction you had hoped for.

LOVE YA MOM! =)

Are you planning on coming back over here anytime soon, it was cool escorting you back to the Adelphi last time to pick up your luggage.

Crashley: Can I call you that?! You have a major car complex, I love it!! ;)

Wow we are having our own convo on Brit's blog and she ain't even here for the weekend!
