I am not a sports person, but...

I am not a sports person. I watch the Olympics every other year. That's usually about the extent of anything sports-related for me. Although, every year, there is the possibility that I could jump on a very huge bandwagon that comes through my city every March. I'm always late to the party, and I suffer the ridicule of all my friends.
But this year, I find myself strangely excited about the UK vs Louisville game tonight. See, I live near Lexington and I went to UK. Literally almost every person I know freaks out about every single UK game. You don't know sports fans if you haven't been to Lexington, KY in March. It's insane.
So alas, I will be watching the NCAA tournament game tonight. And if they win, I'll watch the championship game. Now, many people, including myself, believe that I can be bad luck, since I rarely ever watch a game and usually when I do, they lose. But I secretly watched the UK vs. Indiana game last week and we still won, so I feel okay now about watching the game tonight.
I just felt like this was a milestone I needed to share, because it really is rare for me to get excited about sports games. I really don't even claim to be a UK fan. I like UK. I always hope they win. But I'm not a fan like the fans I know around here. It's more that if you live around here and you don't watch the games at this caliber, you're really making a concerted effort to avoid it. So I'm giving in.
Go Big Blue!

10 on Tuesday: 10 Favorite 6 Month Pics

This is completely gratuitous, just me posting pictures of Isis, but my friend Hannah took some pictures of our family yesterday! She is such a great photographer & she is also going to be watching Isis for me in the fall when I start my student teaching. I feel so blessed to have her as a friend on top of the fact that she takes gorgeous pictures of Isis!! I also realized that I didn't put any of the ones where she is smiling in this post. This just means I'll have to post more another time! Get excited! (And this is not a great comment-grabbing post , but who cares? This is for the digital baby book!)

How to Efficiently Read Blogs

Have you ever been just completely overwhelmed by the sheer volume of blogs out there you can read? I have. Wow. So many fabulous people I'm interested in reading about! I love the stories, the humor, the pictures, the tips, the giveaways, the links, I just love it all! So I've found myself having to streamline my blog reading in order to better manage my time & make sure I hit the "must-reads" for me. Here's how I've done it: First of all, if you leave a comment on my blog or if you follow my blog, I will go to your blog & at the very least I will follow you on Google Friend Connect . This way the blog shows up on my blogger dashboard when I log in. I always look over the new posts that are there when I log in each day, but if you've looked at my Google Friend Connect page lately, you'll see that I follow a lot of people's blogs! So I had to come up with a more specific approach in addition to the blogger dashboard. This is where my Goog...
