Football and IKEA Chaos

I would have to say I am a super star girlfriend who has recently earned herself some girlfriend bonus points. Last night we went to the Cardinals vs. Broncos pre-season game with a friend of ours. One of our friends is a season ticket holder and had two extra tickets and asked me if Andy and I would want to go with him. Of course I was not that interested because I just have no interest in football and especially not a Cardinals/Broncos game, but I said yes because I know Andy would want to go. He recently said he would want to go to a Cardinals game this year just to check out the stadium. I endured a whole football game for my man. Now that is love! Then this morning I watched the Badger game on television with Andy. I usually only watch half the game with him before I move onto Lifetime; but I watched the whole game with him. Talk about super girlfriend status. Even though I am not much of a football enthusiast I had a good time at the game last night with Andy and our friend and again this morning watching the Badger game this morning with Andy.

Oh, an update on our pantry door – following the Badger game we drove to IKEA (aka the cluster f*&% of all stores) to see if we could get a new door to replace the one Madison ruined (read how in an earlier posting). We got lucky and did not have to purchase a whole new pantry as they did sell the door separately. Also, IKEA is another store that should ban children. Talk about a playground for children, or parents that allow their children to think IKEA is a playground. We had to dodge in and out of the aisles so we didn’t bump into or run over children. It was chaos. On my way out I saw a box with a sign above it that read “Please give us your comments to help us improve our store.” My first thought was “Yeah, don’t allow children in your stores as it might help the actual customers shop better and faster.” Again, this would be a rant stemming from my previous post titled “Kids Should Not Be Allowed in Public.”

So, it’s been a good couple days filled with football and IKEA chaos!

Jaimi, I'm very impressed that you watched the entire Badger game! Those of us who were at the game tended to leave early and go to the "Stadium" because it was too hot and we needed an icy cold beverage.

So, you see how I just earned super star girlfriend points? A whole Badger Football game! Too hot! It's still in the upper 90's/100's here. Can't wait to come home for the Penn State/Badger game in October!
