Another year gone by.........

I've got nothin' for you today, pallies. The cow is dry. I'm tired from marching season and my brain is fried.

We are recovering from our last football game and heading into our End-O-the-Season party over at the SuperFan's house. We are packing up the drum boxes and washing the colorguard uniforms. Uniforms are being sent to the cleaners and the concert band tuxedos are being dusted off. We've hugged our Senior band parents good-bye and anointed a new SuperFan--I guess it is officially done for another year.

Commence melancholy.

Aw!!! I've never been much for school sports, but your enthusiasm even got me a little excited. lol.

My cow is running dry these days, too. Winter is a lovely season for bloggers, I think. I hope to have more time to SETTLE DOWN and fabricate wild and humorous yarns, like the olden days.

Rest and recuperate, for life goes on!

Maybe now you can get some rest. :-) Okay, you're only allowed a couple of days of melancholy then you gotta get on to the next thing.

Ann said...

Sit back and breathe a bit now, after the party that is :)

Helene said...

Rest today, wish me happy birthday tomorrow from Hobbes.

Melancholy, that comes for me next Friday at the last football game--senior night. My final and forever required marching band/football game.

Today I just need for me and you to cross our fingers and toes that the kids win a nice big trophy at Greater St. Louis Marching Band Festival. (Guess what, Aurora and Normal are performing...not in our division but the IL friends have traveled the distance for a great competition. I think ABS should come here next year?!)

Now enjoy that party at Superfan's house and may the best man be bestowed the #1 finger!

There's no harm in a little rest. Put that giant orange stripped ottoman in your lap and chill out.

Grace--And what a party it was! ;)

Mystery Man--In a way, I'm glad for the free time I've been missing. Let me know how your contests go.

Terra--Yeah, I really need to get back to the blogs I have fallen behind on!

Jodi--Oh NO! It's ending FOREVER???! :( I hope they win that trophy for you, Jodi. I'll bet this is all very bittersweet for you. Enjoy the last of it, my friend.

Pricilla--Yeah, but I've got 2 more years. I don't know what I'll do when it is over for good.

Betty--It was! We have a great group of kids and parents that make it that way.

Jean--Oh, I can't do the hardy part anymore. :O

Beaded Tail--Bill P. was anointed on Friday night. I'm hoping someone sends photos for he was HILARIOUS! SuperFan is gonna take on a whole new meaning with this guy! Uh--I'm sewing him a cape to make his reign extra special.

Catherine--Yes! I'm looking forward to reclaiming a bit more time on the weekends! Now I can do more blog-hopping.

DG--Yes! I'm looking forward to some couch time with the remote and the cats. I need to chill out a bit.
