The Weekend

Soooo yeah. Interesting weekend.

Yesterday we were waiting in the car and where we were parked there was a pumpkin dropping thingy so Mom and I got out of the car and watched. Butch was there, for those of you who don't know Butch is the Cougar mascot (pictured left). The event finished and we went back to the car, Dad decided we needed to get really for the game. So we got out of the car and began bulking up. Butch was walking around, looking at his reflection etc. He walked over to our car, my Dad said, "Hey Butch." Butch then proceeded to take a blanket from our trunk and run away! Mascots don't talk so he explained through hand motions that he was cold.

We all had a good laugh and he walked over put the blanket around me. Then he pulled my hat off and put it on himself! That's why my hair is so messed up, my face is red because well. If you had a mascot walk over to you and pull your hat off, wouldn't your face have been red too?

The Cougs lost, but come on! They didn't play like they've been playing. Oh well, hopefully they'll pull themselves together before the next game.

Rosanne! Oh my word! That is too funny. Which floor were you on? The top or the lower one? I was thinking about how many people were watching that when I cropped the picture today, there were some guys walking by and I thought, "Hmm... There must have been other people watching."

Ha! But I wouldn't have thought you would have seen that. Awesome.

Kristy: Yeah... Not as red as I got tonight though! We were playing some sort of game, I'd say it's basketball played sitting down with more shoving and grabbing. I was in mortal hand to hand combat with a guy over the ball and I won! Ha ha! He's like, "Elyse is strong." But if he had been on crutches for as long as I was he probably could have had muscles like me too. Not that I have huge muscles or anything. >_>

<_<
