YEAR TWO

Could this be? Is is truly one YEAR later from when I started this crazy blog? What a beautiful year it has been!

It is the night before the first day of school. I'm so excited! I met my new group last week and I think I am in for a treat! I have a total of 21 (15 boys and 6 girls)! Last year, I had 21, but not a crazy boy girl ratio! Eh, bring it on!

For those that know me, you know that last year I was on a fantasy football league. For those of you who don't know this story, I'll make it brief. Eric and his college buddies organize a league for fantasy football. I like football, but fantasy football was over my head. Anyways, one night I came home from a long night of working at school and babysitting. As I was walking up the steps, I heard quite the commotion in Eric's downstairs apartment.. I walked in to find quite the sight. Seven grown men sitting in the living room all with their laptops being men. The second Eric saw me the words that came out of his mouth where somewhere along the lines of "Emily, you're in the league. what do you want to name your team?" UHHHH. WHAT. Turns out, one guy couldn't do the league for whatever reason, so at the last minute they needed someone to be the 8th person and look who that lucky person was! I decided it might be entertaining to pretend to know what I was doing, so just to make a statement my team name ended up being "Sparkle Baby Princess" (thanks Jess!!!!). It took me awhile to get the hang of it, but just so you know, I took first place and won a decent amount of cash. 

Anyways, I tell you this story because of this....here I sit, the night before school starts....waiting for the fantasy football draft for the second year in a row to begin at 10:00. I think some people might be out for blood this year. Ain't no one likes to lose to a girl.

Round 2 for Sparkle Baby Princess.

Good luck to all of the teachers, principals, support staff, and the countless other VIPs out there! 

HAVE FUN! Make it a memorable year!
