Dear Football Season,

I don't really like you. I don't like what your presence means. It means that summer is coming to an end and a looooonnnggg season of cold dreary days are on their way. It means that every time I sit down to relax with my husband I will be watching you... and you take so long to finish a game! It means that every day my co-workers will spend at least half of their work day arguing about and comparing fantasy football points. It means (even though I love the Utes with all my heart) I will most likely sit throught a game and get rained or snowed on. It means instead of recording one of my shows Jake will end up recording you. Since when is football more exciting than 90210?!?

Oh Football Season... I will try to tolerate you... as I do every year. But I assure you... you will never hear the words "I love football season" come from my mouth.

Sincerely,

Me

Oh, is it football season? But I just went to a baseball game? You need to come visit me and we'll NOT watch football!

It's a shame because football season is the BEST!!!! I can hardly wait for this time of year!!!!

Natalie said...

Oh football season, I love you more than most things in this world. Ignore Kristine and you will be much happier.

Oh football isn't so bad it is the cold weather that comes along with it that I don't enjoy. Ryan just picked his fantasy team and that is all he talks about now with his brother.

Natalie... you can't talk to the football season... it can't hear you. It only hears me, because this is MY blog. See you at the game on Saturday!

Catherine said...

That's great! I couldn't agree with you more on that! And PS, just for the record, you can't go to the Dodo and not get the Tollhouse Pie. I would still be bitter too.

Hope you're doing well!

Racie said...

I have to completely agree with the entire letter. Thank you for writing it! Would you sign it for the rest of us next time? :)

Kristine- How are you guys? I'm glad you have a blog because we never see you. Now we can keep in touch. What's new? How's the puppy, we just got another one. We need to get together. Do you guys have tickets to the U games? If so we can get a hot dog at half time and discuss what football freaks our husbands are.

Lauren said...

Yes Boston Terrier!she's awesome. If you aren't planning on having kids any time soon, i highly recomend two dogs. they are soul mates. it's hilarious. The puppy bites Lucy's colar and Lucy drags her around. We definitely need to get together. I'll have Gordon call Jake. Yes we are loving our house. We'll have you over soon!

OH my little kristine, I feel your pain and sorrow! I stumbled across your blog and I have loved all your little entries but I had to let you know that I am sorry and I am in the same boat. Amen to all that you said about "Football season" and I wish you luck! It is my husbands other lover and I struggle but I loved your positive attitude. Take care and I'll probably see ya at one of the games. BTW your wedding pics are so beautiful! -Laura Jackson
p.s. I hope you don't care but I'm adding you to my list, and thanks for making me laugh so hard! I could't agree more! Go 90210
