today was a devastation in the football world, more specifically to the broncos and their fans. i have become, by marriage, a bronco fan. so, for all you, charger folks that have tried to talk to me about being loyal to san diego, i'm sorry, my loyalty lies with my husband. and besides, maintaining peace at home is key to a marriage, and what better way to maintain peace...becoming a rockies, nuggets, bronco, avalanche fan. its just easier this way, i'm sure one day when you folks finally get married, you'll understand. but for now...i'm purely a colorado fan in all aspects. and if anyone knows my husband, the man is a sports fanatic. he's always reading about sports and keeping track of things pertaining to the sports he watches. there is no end in sight for him, so i've learned if i cant change him then i may as well join him. ha!
today was my first day wearing a bronco jersey. yes, a bronco jersey. i own one now. not just any one, but a personalized one. yes, dan and have almost matching jerseys. as a matter of fact i think we'll be buying orange matching jerseys in the near future.
so as a fan, i complained about a few things today. one...why the hell did cutler throw the f-ing ball away? why dude? were your sugar levels not stable enough for you to figure out that #88 was wide open while you maintained to throw it to marshall as he was being guarded by 2 chiefs? seriously dude, how are you supposed to win games when you have you head up your ass! get your shit together. secondly, why the hell couldnt the broncos maintain possession of the ball. marshall...you wear gloved for a reason...clearly today, you did not wear them to grip the ball, because you fumbled it. same goes for you royal. supposedly the two of you are the best receivers on the bronco team, today certainly does not prove it. it hurt watching ya'll play today. if only cutler threw to open guys, and if we could just maintain possession of the damn ball the broncos could have been 4-0. what a disappointment.
to make matters even worse in my world, i have managed to catch a cold watching you guys lose. i certainly hope next saturday, you all will get your game together and pull out a win to make up for this loss. oh and...i hope #10 is okay. its always daunting seeing a man being carried off the field in a stretcher. a speedy recovery to you!
thats all for now...

treasures
every morning i wake next to my husband...its a peaceful wake...something good to start off the day. its funny how relationships grow and things just become the norm...just like that...almost with the snap of fingers. 30 months now that we have been together...3 months of them as husband and wife now. there is nothing i want more than to end my days with him and wake next to every morning.
there are so many things to love about him...and many more i am learning of as time passes. and i love it. but you see, each morning, he carries a tune. he's always singing in the shower or saying something clever with a catchy tune...almost every morning he does that. and each and every time it brings a smile to my face. he probably doesnt know this, nor will i ever admit it to him. but in any event, i always find that the little things will always brighten my day. i am a true believer of cherishing the little things in life. i think dan is too...he places a lot of emphasis on cherishing what you have not what you think you should have.
everyone who knows me...knows that i am a dreamer. what do i mean by this? i see something and i want it and when i put my mind to something there's no turning back or telling me otherwise. its just the way i am. why do i bring this to your attention, you ask. because i think i may be getting out that habit or shell or mind frame. what is the saying....patience is a virtue...good things come to those that wait...
from first hand experience...all the times that i have waiting for something, it was always the best outcome for me. funny thing ... i thought about this at work...while i was slammed with work. its definitely odd - how my mind works. i can be under total stress and have an epiphany yet be under no stress and cant figure out what to do next. i have always been a person who works well with pressure - ok so some of you who know me may say otherwise - but i'd like to think i work well under pressure. dan will tell you that i always seem to take on tasks that are grand...and require a lot of attention or work to be accomplished successfully. and you know, for once i will admit that he is right. there's something about a challenge and me knowing that i can push myself to make it through successfully and have a very rewarding outcome.
my life definitely goes through peaks and valleys - just like anyone else life...but its only now that i can say that my life is coming full circle...in its entirety. i think the one thing i am missing but not caring much for is a house i can call my own..or actually our own. oh and that kid i've been contemplating on having. but other than that...i think everything else will fall into place quite nicely. its the first time in my life since i've lost my independent status as a single woman that i am able to save money. it feels good. it feels good to know that i can put away half my paycheck for something grand in the future. its damn nice to know that i have no debt except for my student loan. its nice to know that i have a job that i go to every day and actually like...granted there are the days where i hate it, but who doesnt have those days?
i will always find the time to treasure the small things in life, to stop every now and again to smell the roses or admire a beautiful sunset. i am learning that patience is a virtue. i am also learning that it isnt a bad thing to dream but it can be a bad thing to want everything. i am quite thankful for the treasures i have in my life...because it was in time that i finally found them.

Vent
hasnt the theme to this blog been one of bitching and moaning and venting...well this blog here will be following in suit with those of the past. i've been told that i have a problem letting this out and getting over them...and quite simply i do. so...here...i turn to vent to the whole world...or whoever is bored enough at night to stumble...quite unfortunately...to this here blog. i'm sorry reader...but you're the one that keeps reading the words.
i think the last post i did was months ago...i have been quite unsuccessful at posting regularly. maybe if i think to blog after i shit, then it would be more regular...but blogging seems - to me - to take too long. actually, i take that back...i dont blog because i'm tired of sitting on my ass in front of a computer all day...so when i get home - blogging is the last thing on my mind.
today's blog...consists of dependency. more specifically people's dependency on me.
i understand that at my job, people depend on me to do my work...as i depend on people to do their work. the ebb and flow of what i do for a living in my cubicle alongside the same people that share what i do...is integral to people's healthcare. this i understand.
what i dont understand...is how certain people in my life...not to mention any names...constantly feel the need to call me and almost harass me to an almost very annoying state. i cannot comprehend, nor will i try to even begin the process of comprehending how grown people depend on me for the smallest and quite normal functions of life....to the greatest extent. i hear questions such as...chris..why is your dog throwing up? ...cause i think its because the heat...when i came home today it was really hot in the house...do you think thats why they're throwing up and sick? hmmm...let me figure this one out - no brainer...i think yes. and i'm quite surprised you were able to piece all that together on the phone with me, but was not able to in your own mind before you called me.
did i forget to mention that this is my week of the month? i am mood swing heaven right now...so all you people watch out.
so you think that's all i'm venting about huh...well you're right. i am too tired to even type on this keyboard....wait let me take that back...i'm too lazy. maybe the next blog will be on a positive note...i hope for your sake and my husband's sake...he's starting to think i'm going looney.
that's all folks....
