Brandelyn: Lyrical Contradiction

This weekend taught me a lot. This weekend was the kick off the amazingness we know as Cal Football season. If you know me at all, you know my smack talking started months ago and became even more serious with the W added to the Cal Football Schedule, Go Bears. One thing I did learn though was that I am way too old actually attend games. While I have an outfit that I have created that is pure foolery and can only be fully appreciated amongst other hardcore Cal Football fans, the fact of the matter is that standing up, in the sun, wearing thick striped Cal socks, because honestly, the outfit wouldn’t be complete without the socks, screaming at the top of my lungs for four hours was cute in undergrad, now, not so much. Today is Tuesday and I am still recovering from the foolery. I like to think I did my part in keeping my team amped and focused, but honestly, my whole life is still drained. But, as any true blue fan knows, sometimes you just have to take one for the team. But I can honestly say that the thrill of actually attending games is gone. I will be at home, fully decked out in my Go Bears gear, watching from the comfort of my living room, drinking wine and indulging on pizza because that is how we get down. Go Bears. Please be prepared for many updates and stories and plenty of Smack Talking...*BeccaAnne, you know I love you...but I’ll talk to you in February...LOL!!! Let the games begin....
