The "a" is short like in the word "laugh." ;)

Um... they capped it at 50% and it doesn't include alcohol. I'm sure they'll be fine.

465-4292 Haven't had this number in over 20 years, though. The area code has changed since then and now it's a business number. Now ask me what my phone number was when I lived in East Hartford and no... can't tell ya. I've forgotten my Florida and Connecticut numbers. I remember central...

Ugh. I had someone come by last summer trying to sell me Dish. I asked him about SNY. After being on hold for 15 minutes, corporate finally confirmed what I already knew. Um, thanks but no thanks.

Awesome. Makes me feel not so weird for a college coach seeing Mini Chick's shooting form when she was still only three years old. LOL!

My grandparents honeymooned there. :p

When I lived in Alabama, I had one. It was a Saturn V plate that read GOHUSKZ. Now that I'm in Iowa, I don't have one. 1, Car registration is more expensive here and 2, No matter what I get, I'm stuck with a freaking ugly silo in it and I just can't will myself to pay more for the same plate...

I mixed us up with current conference foes, former conference foes, schools not too far from me so I can actually attend games, and other schools I just plain hate. I called it The Big Mess. Needless to say, it's not a popular combination.

I'm 2.5 hours from Des Moines and it KILLS me that I couldn't get tickets.

I'm ARGH!!!! That is all. I live 2.5 freaking hours from Des Moines and even if I could get my hands on tickets, I couldn't make it to the game. I think. Pfft.

That's in my queue! No joke! <3 I loved The Sound and The Fury. I always think of A Rose For Emily every time I see the video for Bad Romance. ~shifty eyes~

I like to almost everything. Hubby and I have around 1200 books. I'm currently doing a 52 in 52 challenge. 90% must be new reads. 10% can be re-reads but not within the last five years. I'm currently reading White Oleander and The Man in the High Castle. I've also read Little Men, The Good...

I've been saying that for years. Maybe this is the year!

Ugh. While I like the idea of it potentially helping us get into the conference, I don't want him at Michigan any more than I want him at UConn. ~gag, vomit~

I keep DirecTV and the sports pack just for this. It's well worth it. ;)

That's not fair. We also have... Never mind. You're right. ;) I-80 is a little over 300 miles from Council Bluffs to Davenport. Even the drive from Wilton to Iowa City is painful and I did it weekly for four years. :-/

Iowa State won't have a lot of ice and snow. We get bone-chilling cold but not a whole lot of snow out here. Too cold for it. :-/ I had to laugh because I was in CT about 18 months ago and everyone was panicked about it going under 10 degrees. Yet no one seems to notice 6-10" of snow. Then...

Mini Chick loves Trouble. She has a Scooby Doo version. When she first got it, she had trouble saying "Scooby" so it was "Goofy Doo." We didn't play a lot of board games when I was growing up. Which is odd because I'm such a gamer now. I love Trivial Pursuit, Logo, Scene It, Monopoly, Life...

Yeah, probably not. The 2.5 seconds between NCAA tournament (with the Final Four being a convention of sorts) and the time recruiting opens up again... this is pretty much their summer break. LOL.

Don't I know! :( She's going to be five in July, adores her Huskies, and is very smart... and extremely opinionated.

Thanks! Hubby LOVED it. Of course, I always think of you when I see the pick of mini chick that you edited. I had people spazzing about it because they thought she was really wearing makeup and a tattoo. <3

I normally wouldn't but... is it okay if I share on Facebook? Props to you? Too hilarious not to...

They can't usually. If she turns 22 this year, she's fair game.

Yes, which is why I specified Iowa City.

If it were to happen, I'm sure Kiah would have gotten a homecoming.

I'd love to see them in Iowa City but I have a feeling that's, um, never going to happen.

Nice! I've only been to three games since I graduated nearly 10 years ago. :( The biggest one was the Florida State game in 2010 for our 89th consecutive win. OSB (who disappeared a few years ago) and a friend of his went with me, my husband, and a not-quite-five-month-old Mini Chick. Lots...

January 21, 2008. Down by 11 points to NC in the first half. Came back and won by 9. So not the 40-point swing I was thinking of but a good 20-point one.

Er... LSU? NC? One of those teams, I think, a number of years ago. We were down by a LOT. I think we ended up with a 40-point swing to win the game. Don't quote me on it. I'm going to see if I can figure out which game it was or if I'm just imagining it.

Awesome! Thank you! Woot!

Fine on DirecTV in Iowa. Sorry you experienced that. I've had my own issues. (When I lived in Alabama, my internet signal kept dropping and it was impossible to stream games. To the point where I nearly stopped subscribing.)

That's awesome! And enjoy Michigan for me! I don't get out that way very often. ;)

Online scalpers? I rarely go to games when I'm in CT because usually I find that I have to order from various sites and they really jack up the prices. I think one of the last times I wasn't up in the sky (which is bad for me as I get really dizzy), we paid about $70 per ticket. But because...

OMG, YES. I was just wondering about this. I was SURE there were two. Thank you, it's not just me! LOL!

Sending healing vibes. Get better quickly, Kib. <3
