I really do enjoy the football season...all the screaming fans, hot dogs for lunch, cheering for the home team and just the overall smell and sound of football. But, I have to admit, I'm uber-excited for it to be over. With a wandering 7 month old, I'm looking forward to having my baby daddy back and being a family once again.
This season has made me realize that i have a serious LATE (love/hate) relationship with football. Here are the top 10 reasons why:
- Holding a squirming toddler during a game is less than comfortable. It's even harder trying to explain the game to him. It's unbelievable that he doesn't know what a 4-3 is yet.
- I'll be home in 15 minutes...football time=hour
- Football calendar: I'd love to come to your party this weekend...but, let me check if we are home or away...
- For 3 hours I can sit in the New Mexico sun and get a great tan
- Being the full-time caregiver is HARD-PROPS to all single mommies out there
- On Saturdays my breakfast is a brat. (This is an actual LOVE)
- At the home game parties I can eat 5635235 appetizers for dinner and it's perfectly acceptable (notice my awesome food habits and love for junk food)
- The excitement and spirit in the stands reminds me of my college days and I feel young again.
- Watch the football game, go home, talk about the football game, turn on TV and watch other people's football games...poop footballs?
AND THE NUMBER 1 REASON...
- I love seeing the smile & excitement on my husbands face after a W. It reminds me of when he used to play.

ReplyDeleteHate that the end of the season means I see our coach LESS! Grrr recruiting season.
