A Hurricane for the Cowboys

Not a whole lot has happened lately. I worked at Happy Hands both Thursday and Friday. Boy, I love those kids. They are absolutely the sweetest. I can't share any pictures of them with you, but trust me, they are super cute! The easiest way to share the rest of the week with you is through pictures. Sorry for the overload, but at least it's easy reading!

 I spotted this when I was out with Becca once. Um, what? Why is NAS advertising in Tulsa? Not a whole lot of people are crazy enough to drive 12 hours just for that. I don't count.

Thursday night, Becca, Elissa, Amy, and I went to the Greek Festival in Tulsa. It was quite interesting. We had some Greek food and watched some dancing. Woo culture!

Next up? Football.

We did some pretty serious tailgating where we explored the Army truck. It was really quite lovely. I am terribly bad at shooting from a tank. Thank God I'm not the Marine in this relationship.

She was thinking, Who let her on this truck?

 Once we got done tailgating, and I managed to lose everybody, but refound Jessie, we made our way down to the stadium for a fun-filled evening of getting dominated by some cowboys. The game was scheduled for a kick-off time of 9 PM. I'm not sure who decided that but it was a horrible decision.

Right after the band came out and did their opening song and some jazzy sax player did the national anthem we were required to evacuate the stadium because of weather.

Waiting for the footballs to come....

This sign said something to the extent of Leave because a storm is going to eat you if you stay

Leave? Pah! We waited until 9 for this game. Play in the rain!

The sky was actually pink, not that this is a very good representation but it happened. Fo real.

There's Tulsa. Right in the middle of the PINK. Yeah. Lovely.

Apparently during this mini-hurricane nonsense, Lafortune got hit by lightening. I wasn't there so I'm not sure if anything was damaged but it appears to be fine from my room. The game simply couldn't be cancelled so they set the kick-off time for 12:15. I was one of the brave souls that showed up for the game.

The game actually had a decent show out, but I think at least half of that was OSU fools who just couldn't miss a good butt-whooping. I left at half time absolutely exhausted. We lost. But I'll still cheer for us. I mean we at least gave OSU a hurricane to deal with.

Today I had a meeting for my study at Gallaudet. I can't believe I'm going to be in Washington DC in a couple of months. Awesome! It will probably be the best class I take, and I'm okay with that. Jessie and I then went from there to get some outfit ideas for a great adventure that is going to take place next weekend. I can't tell you what just yet, but hopefully there are a ton of pictures to help you understand.... Here's Jessie's outfit choices..

Yep. I'm excited, too!
