The Winter Blues

I’ve never actually seen a groundhog so I’m not sure I truly believe they exist (kidding!), but if I ever do meet that dang groundhog who saw his shadow on February 2, 2012 in Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania, a place I’ve never been, I’m going to drop kick him to the next continent.


I mean, seriously, Mr. Groundhog? Did you have to see your shadow? Did you have to stick your nose in the air declaring 6 more weeks of winter? Did you have to cause my 60 degree January days to come to a screeching halt so they could turn into yucky, yucky cold February days? Did you really have to make it…snow?!?!





So…yeah…the white stuff was pretty. But, Mr. Groundhog! Seriously! I’m ready for Spring!


Although, I do really like to wear my rubb-ah boots.




Polka dots in the snow, yo. I love this picture so.


It’s the only thing keeping me sane Mr. Groundhog. The. Only. Thing. This picture…and bacon.

Oklahoma State vs. Iowa State 2/2/12

Our basketball team may not be perfect, they may have lost more games than they’ve won, but they definitely know how to grab the attention of their fan base. And quick!


Let me tell you a little something about #LobStilly…and yes, I realize I just willingly used Stilly on my own blog when I’ve ranted here in the past about how much I despise the popular shortened version of my beloved Stillwater, but it’s what the people want. And the people get what the people want. I guess.


Anyway, let’s get back to #LobStilly, shall we? It’s a little thing called…


“OH MY GOSH DID YOU JUST SEE MARKEL BROWN DUNK THAT BALL?! OH MY GOSH DID YOU JUST SEE BRIAN WILLIAMS ALLEY-OOP THAT BALL TO MARKEL BROWN SO HE COULD DUNK IT AGAIN?! OH MY GOSH DID MARKEL BROWN JUST DUNK THE BALL AGAIN?! OH MY GOSH DID YOU JUST SEE THAT PASS FROM KEITON PAGE TO BRIAN WILLIAMS SO HE COULD DUNK THE BALL LIKE MARKEL BROWN?!”

I could watch this ALL. DAY. LONG.




And if that’s not enough for you, here are Brown’s two rockin’ dunks against Mizzou…

I really don’t think those Ts were warranted, but hey. What do I know?



Markel Brown. Oh my. #LobStilly is right.



But enough about Markel Brown.



What about Le’Bryan Nash?! With his last second almost game winning shot that led to THE game winning block also made by one Le’Bryan Nash! AWESOME!!

I really just want to give him a big hug. He’s such a little cutie. Well, maybe he’s not little since he’s more than half a foot taller than me, but whatever.










Oh, Cowboys, how I love you all! Keep it up ‘boys!



***Update*** Oh! And make sure you check out #LobStilly on Twitter! It is positively blowing up over there. Crazy. Seriously crazy. There are shirts here and here and there's desktop wallpaper here. The power of the World Wide Web. It's truly amazing.

After extensive (and by extensive I mean I saw it on my timeline) Twitter Research…Twitsearch?…whatever…I have found the person/persons who claim to be the originator. Good job guys! You’ve started a trend!
