Hey all! I've been busy with grad school (and then taking a break once the semester was over), but now I'm just getting bored enough to where I want to make something. I started small today. 

When I was cleaning my room, I found a fan towel from when I went to a Giants game last fall with my dad. I already have one that I use as a sewing machine cover, so I put this one aside to use in a project. Today I decided to make a pillow out of it.



As I said, pretty simple..but a good project since I haven't made anything since before Christmas. The towel itself is terrycloth (which is a bitch to sew), and the pillow is backed in plain red fabric that was handed down from my grandma. Yet another piece of sports memorabelia that will be hanging around my bedroom :)

1. The Giants game was absolutely amazing. During the National Anthem they had the flag from 9/11 out and, after, 3 blackhawk helicopters flew over the stadium. I'm not gonna lie, I got a little misty. Or seats were high up, but not as bad as my dad had been making them out to be. The game was great. Eli, Osi, and Jacobs are my loves. So much fun, and the fans were absolutely insane! I need to recruit some of them to come to UA games. ;)



The view from the top of the stadium.... )
2. When we got home, I watched the VMAs, and I just have to say....HOW BIG OF A TOOL IS KANYE WEST!?!? Ugh. I cant believe he would do that. Seriously, grow up and find some class.

3. Also, anyone see Mark K from SYTYCD Season 4 dancing with Lady Gaga? I heart him.

1. I'm going with my dad tomorrow to see my very first NFL football game. Its the Giants' home opener, and it will be amazing. Our seats are 3 rows from the very, very top of the stadium. My whole family is convinced I'm going to have a panic attack....let's hope not!

2. I just got back from seeing Julie & Julia...and now I want to do the same thing, except with the Hungry Girl cookbooks.

3. Vampire Diaries = HORRIBLE show, with an amazing soundtrack. *sigh* I might just watch it if they keep it up with the music.

I just got home from seeing RENT in NYC. And OMG!...IT.WAS.AMAZING. Its probably my favorite musical ever and seeing it on Broadway (my first Broadway show, at that) was just the best thing ever.

Little things I loved:
-During "Rent" Roger tugged on Mark's scarf (soooo cute...god....I'm such a Roger/Mark shipper)
-All the little things Angel did (put up her sticks in a cross to ward off Benny, 'weee' when her and Collins are spinning in "I'll Cover You", her little dance during 'new york city' in the beginning of "Santa Fe", "golf claps!", the way her voice would go extrememly deep at random parts)
-Being close enough that I could see their facial expressions
-"Over the Moon"...Maureen was HILARIOUS..the different accents were the best
-"One Song Glory"....Will Chase will be the father of my children...even if there's like a 15 year age difference. His performance was omg.amazing!!!!
-When Mark pans the camera across the audience at the end
-Roger acting out Mark's 'inability to hold an erection...' with a bottle

yeah...and pretty much the entire play


Now I must go to sleep since I'm shlepping my ass back to NYC tomorrow morning to see the Mets play. Thank god I'm on summer break or I'd die of sleep deprivation by Tuesday.

HOLY FUCK

I know its been almost 24 hours, but I haven't had time to post since it happened....

WE FREAKING WON!!!!!! My amazing G-men actually beat the Pats in what has to be the best Superbowl game ever played. I'm so proud of my Eli Manning...and Strahan...and Burress..and Tyree (my GOD that catch was insanity, and Eli somehow staying standing was a miracle). I was in total shock for about a minute before I started screaming and crying. Take THAT Tiki (*cough*whineybitch*cough*) Barber

I can't wait until this summer...its going to be INSANE. I better freaking meet my Eli, and get a freaking autograph this year. I can't believe this might be their last year coming to good ol' Albany for summer training camp :-(

NY GIANTS. SUPERBOWL 2008 CHAMPS!!!!!!!
