Terps filled weekend

by - Monday, November 16, 2009

My weekend was full of Terp activities.

Basketball season started on Friday and I was lucky enough to have the best seat in the house for the game. Maryland runs a program where season ticket holders can donate their tickets back to the booster club, who then gives them out to young alums who can't afford the crazy expensive tickets. I was lucky enough to be graced with seats from one of our big, big donors. My seat was exactly at midcourt close enough that I could see all the action, but high enough that I didn't have to strain my neck to see the jumbotron. Perfect. Plus Maryland smacked the opponent and won by like 30 points or something.

Saturday was a bit of the opposite. Maryland lost 36-9 to Virginia Tech. It was so pathetic I left at the end of the 3rd quarter. The BF got sick of laughing at the win by about 5 minutes into the first quarter. My parents had come down for the game too. Too bad they saw such a stinker. (Although really, our whole season has been pretty bad.) But the tailgate was tons of fun. Thanksgiving themed with a turkey, stuffing and potatoes and delicious desserts my mom made.

My leg hamstring has been tight all weekend for no apparent reason (maybe I tweaked it playing cornhole on Saturday haha). So I've been resting it up. I'll see what tonight holds workout wise when I get home from work.

Other than that nothing too exciting for me.

Happy Monday!

  1. maybe I tweaked it playing cornhole on Saturday haha

    Gotta ask, sister - does "cornhole" mean the same thing down there in MD as it does up here in Joisey? Because I'd expect to read about cornholin' an' banjo pickin' on Car. Cletus's blog, but not yours.

    Please tell me it means something different.

  2. YAY TERPS! I'm glad the only football game I went to ended up with a win. What a bad season it's been!

    Nice score on the basketball tickets! Playing in the pep band usually yielded me some pretty good seats...I miss those days!
