My mom got free tickets to the Lady Raider basketball game, so she and I headed out to see the Longhorns mop the floors with our not-so-talented Lady Raiders Lady Raiders beat the Longhorns. Much to my surprise, we hung with them. We were ahead for most of the game, and then we sent it in to overtime #1. We hung with them then, too. With just under 30 seconds left, we were up by 4. Then, they stole the ball on two consecutive in-bounds, while managing to shave 2 seconds off the clock, and that sent it to overtime number 2. It was absolutely ridiculous. As in, I felt like I was watching Little Dribblers basketball or some comedy routine about basketball. Pathetic. So they kicked our tail and we lost it in the second overtime. Pitiful.
Here is the video:

I especially love the part where the coach tries to explain (unsuccessfully) why her team completely choked tonight. It must have been because they were "hurting".

Welcome to the Big 12, Coach Curry.

Okay, sorry. I'm back to being nice again. Rainbows. Sadiekins. Ah, yes. Much better.

Then, I went to my Mom's to see my puppy Dillon Lee (my first puppy love) and she had to get the security system installed on her new (and completely fab, by the way) house. Well, AT&T did some weird thing during installation, so the security dude came out for no reason because he couldn't put the system in today after all. Sigh. Gotta love idiots installation men.

Thank goodness for Martin Luther King Junior. He is the reason I don't have school Monday and ya know, he was pretty good for his Civil Rights stuff, too. But really, thanks Dr. King for giving me a holiday. I heart you.

And, for your daily dose of uselessness randomness... I think I screwed up my hard palate today. I have this little piece of flesh that is suddenly just gone from the room of my mouth... like right behind my front teeth. It feels weird... and rather scary. But hopefully I'll live. My parents have paid for way too much college to croak now. Must. Keep. Breathing.

So excited about the Golden Globes tomorrow night. And excited about the crock pot meal I am thinking about throwing in tomorrow for the week. Yay for that delish crock-pot. And fashion. And Sadiekins. And my couch. And my heater. And my house. And hot men galore. Go Sandra Bullock. Get it girl!

I would really love it if WLISD (you important peeps understand this lingo) would get it's act together. Hey Mr. Principal retarded, worthless human being, terrible leader, moron Man: you are making my dear sister crazy. And I, as the darling younger sister, am not okay with this. Don't mess with her. You are stressing her out, and really... she is around 13 and 14 year olds alllllllllll day, so go easy on her. All we need is for you to use your brain at least once in your lifetime. Is that really too much to ask? She's the best sister ever. I sort of need her around to take me to Celine another million times to take care of my future children. And seriously, she makes some mean chicken enchiladas that I am hoping to con her in to making for me this weekend when she's in town for her b-day. Annnnnnd, for the record: she's the best teacher you have and will ever have, so be nice to her. She doesn't have to be in W-town forever. So there.

The people of Haiti are really on my mind and heart lately. I just can't even fathom what it must be like for them.

I am a little bit pissed bitter with the IRS. Why do I have to pay taxes, but I get nothing, nada, zilch back from the government? So unfair. But, such is life. When I rule the world, there will be no more taxes. Money for my family only everyone!
