A long Blogger drought

STUDIO 48 -- Do you ever wonder why I always seem to start my Blog entries with a hypothetical question? {That was a joke} Today I would like to welcome at least one new member to my Blog audience. Let’s see... there are now about three of you guys out there. I will, be careful what I put up here from now on because the new member is not afraid to dig for dirt when she wants information. I kid, I kid!

Life is swamped right now. I’m not complaining because it gets this way during March Madness every year. In case you live in a cave or just don’t care, my Lady Dawgs came up short against UConn the other day and ended another successful season on a sour note. But I am nothing short of proud of the way they played and way coach Landers and his staff coached. We will get to the top of the mountain someday; I was just selfishly hoping that it would be while I was here at Georgia. I will not take the time to complain about my fiasco in Stamford / Bridgeport / Hartford / Springfield, Connecticut last weekend because it is just not worth dwelling on any longer. If you wanna know, you can just ask me. But I will say that if you ever have the opportunity to NOT go to the state of Connecticut, then take it! You can look for pictures from all the Basketball band post-season trips in my Facebook pictures. (I'm not sure if this link will work, but you can go to my Facebook profile and navigate from there if it does not)

G-Day is only nine days away and I am surprisingly not stressed out. I know that something is getting overlooked, but I think that my section is ready to go and everything is prepared. I have delegated some of the work and I think that it is all getting done. We’ll see! I am going to use the morning rehearsal that day to let perspective section and rank leaders for next fall lead a warm-up and rehearsal so that I can see how they do it and so that they will know exactly what they are getting themselves into. Other than that, we are Eastbound and down with our preparation for China. Wow, it is going to be tons of hard work, but totally worth it... I think.

I am looking forward to getting through the politicking (ie: officer elections, drum major crap, sucking up to rich alumni... etc) of G-Day and actually getting to the game itself. I really wanna know who is going to be our quarterback and who is going to step up in the defensive secondary. I trust coach Richt. We will be fine, but I’m a little concerned about our lack of experience. My early pre-G-Day season prediction... We’re going 10-2.

I have three papers due and an exam in the next six days. Don’t expect too many subsequent Blog entries until that is all over. There may be some big news in my future, but we’ll just keep hoping and praying about it and not discuss it until it happens... or doesn’t. I could use some prayer from you guys as well. Thanks for being patient with me and I’ll try not to slip into a Blog drought.......
