It's my party
So my kid has been a little baby lately. And it's driving me nuts. I'm not an emotional void when it comes to things but seriously. Crying over the littlest things? What, are you 2? Oh wait, you are. I'm sorry baby, I didn't mean that. I just don't get it. ONe day he is a super boy who is captain of the place and the next day he decides he wants to be a cry-baby. Just give me peace for a moment. I even think I would take overly-aggressive boy to weeping willie over here. Nothing big going on in my house. As you can tell by my post. I'm sure for the next week the time not spent doing some exercising or working you will find me holed up in my bedroom watching the new seasons of all my favorite shows!

Fun weekend
So this weekend we went to Kansas City and it was great. We went to the movies, to the mall, watched a fight at Buffalo Wild Wings (on Pay Per View, not in the restaurant!) and went to the Raiders game. Nothing too ridiculous but things that we don't usually have a chance to do together when we have the monkey with us. One thing that made this weekend especially good for me was the time in the car that we could just talk. We don't usually have a lot of time that we just sit together and talk and it's not like we talked the whole way there and back but still enough time to talk. And I got something off my chest that I've been wanting to talk about with him and we had an actual conversation. No jokes were made (and if you know my hubby you know this was a big step) and even though it wasn't completely resolved we made forward progress and I think this will make us a better team. Nothing too exciting, just stuff that if you don't work on it will just fester and then turn sour. So all in all a fabulous weekend! And we saw the movie Extract. A little weird, but I thought it was pretty good. Very dry but good.

All the haters in the house
This weeks spin cycle is about hate. What do I hate? I hate a lot of things. I think in light of football season though I will talk about my hate for football fans. Now I LOVE football! I've talked about it on numerous occasions. But we are going to the Kansas City Chiefs game this weekend and they are playing division rival the Oakland Raiders. Now my hubby is a die hard Raiders fan. I have slowly become a Raiders fan (they are now my new second favorite team behind the REDSKINS!) just because I want to know about what is going on with his team. Anyways...my mom got us tickets to the game for the hubby's birthday. And now he doesn't know if he wants to wear Raiders clothes. Why you may ask? Well because drunk football fans are the worst! (here it comes)
I hate that a person that has no bearing on the outcome of the game feels that it is their place to make other fans uncomfortable and be as rude as possible because they are not going for the same team that you are. And I'm not even talking about the rude, obnoxious fans for the other team that are jeering and cussing and just being rude. We went to a Redskins/Cowboys game in Dallas a few years ago and being the Redskins fan that I am I was cheering for the Redskins. I was not even being obnoxious yet the Cowboys fan a few rows behind me started heckling me. Telling me I was white trash and that my engagement ring was cubic zarconia (sic). I was just cheering for my team and this douche bag had to go and ruin my good time by personally attacking me. I have been to a Chiefs game that I didn't really care who they were playing but I saw numerous people get into fights because they were cheering for the "wrong" team. I really don't know how this weekend will turn out. I am planning on wearing a black t-shirt (Raiders colors are Black/Silver) and I'm sure I will get yelled at but honestly people, it's a game.
And just to be fair, this does not only happen at football games. I went to a baseball game (Royals vs. Cardinals) and the hubby was wearing a Royals shirt at Busch stadium and he got heckled. I just think it is ridiculous. And I think it is even more ridiculous when these people personally attack you. They don't know you. What if it was their mother and you were doing that to her, I'm pretty sure they wouldn't enjoy that. Let's just take some advice from Rodney King and let's all just get along. I hope my weekend is uneventful and if you want to check out other people's hates go to http://www.spriteskeeper.com
