This is amazing. No one thought they'd do much in the CWS this year, and they haven't lost yet. One win away. One very hard win away.

2. I just gotta find a way... |
|
to make sure my best friend (also a UT alum) doesn't find out about game 2 tomorrow. If she even knows the Horns are playing they lose...she doesn't even have to watch the game...she just has to know about it.

7. LOL I meant to come to the last one, but I got a day off |
|
so I visited my parents in Mississippi, instead. They aren't in the best of health, and I see them only a few times a year.

8. You're off the hook then... |
|
'cause seeing your parents is way more important. I hope y'all had a real good visit. :)
But you do need to come to a gathering one of these days...and I will tell you my Karl Rove story if/when you do.

12. I'm gonna be scarce most of July myself |
|
either visiting my momma for her birthday or visiting Andy Stephenson up in Seattle. But we will eventually meet and I will learn once and for all whether you're just a sock puppet for GOPisEvil. :)

so I was listening on the radio. The upside of that is I had the same guys who did the regular season Horns' games doing the broadcast. Total homers. :)

I haven't said a word bad about the Aggies today or told one single Aggie joke so you can just blow it out your bloomer leg, Tex. :P

36. Hee...never been called TOO diplomatic before |

I can't help it on this topic though. I'm too much of a Texan. Gotta root for all of 'em. Granted, Tech comes first, then UT...but otherwise if a Texas team is playing...I'm rootin' for 'em. :) Y'all should see my 6 year old nephew...he knows how to "get his guns up", do "hook 'em Horns" and "gig 'em Aggies". It's too cute. :)
And on that happy note I am headed off to bed. You boys have fun fighting amongst yourselves. *smooches all around*
