- 8 days. Unbelievable. [smoking cig emoj]
- One of lass’ friends told her we should sell our Bama tickets and cover the cost of our whole season; I can’t begin to describe the size of that FALSE (lass agreed).
- I say it every year around this time and will never stop: hearing the drumline practicing at night to bring on the season and fall is one of the true joys of living where we do.
- All the late 90’s/early aughts UK sorority rankings are pretty consistent and right. Tier 1 easily Theta, ADPi, Chi O; Tier 2 Pi Phi, Kappa, Tri Delt. The order within those confines really makes no difference.
- If you never hung out with Pi Phis, you missed out. Hot, a little more edgy, and just knew how to have fun. We always had to order extra kegs when planning mixers with them. No cap.
- Saw Mitch at Starbucks this morning. He was probably celebrating the renewed deal with a nice, ice cold, venti cup of milk.
- Working the Friday bingo tent with Jaimanth and some other friends for Oktoberfest, if for no other reason than to see the Spin Doctors. Two Princes is the epitome of a 90’s rock classic.
- Catching a game at EKU on a crisp fall night (when not conflicting with UK, of course), taking in the atmosphere at a (relatively) small-town/small-college football school, is an underrated local entertainment option.
- I know nothing compares to real, homemade sauce/gravy, but for a long time Rao’s was the best if in a bind and going store-bought. Hope the Campbell’s acquisition won’t ruin it (it will).
- Wrestlers looks pretty entertaining and is a very cool moment for those people, but as even Matt himself said, not real sure how this will necessarily springboard any of them to the next level. No one is getting a shot at WWE or AEW solely by reason of being on that show; they don’t need the “crossover publicity.” That said, really do hope something works out for at least some of them.
- Steps/walking: I get that it’s time-consuming to really get in a decent amount, but if you have time it’s such an underrated form of cardio.
- Lass was cleaning out a closet of ours and found an old “homemade weight gainer” recipe I consumed in early college; 4k calories plus a few solid meals for 5-6k+, every day. Wish I still had the “problem” of not being able to gain weight.
- 90’s youth sports movies are all ridiculous (and awesome), but Little Giants had two old men setting odds then trying to move the lines with simultaneous, rogue recruiting calls. That might be the peak.
- We’ll circle back around and work out the particulars on another Friday soon, gang. Make this one great.
