Fiesta Bowl

It was too great to be there at the ending of the best OSU season!! Go Pokes!! Kendra and I headed to the desert Sunday night. After nearly winning tickets on Friday and then not getting them within a couple hours, Kendra decided to go ahead and find a sweet deal on some tickets. Driving all night we made it into Scottsdale, Arizona, around 9 am to pick up the tickets. After resting up in the afternoon we headed to the stadium. Our seats were great and the game was better. I don't think we sat down even for halftime. I can barely talk and still have a headache from yelling so much. Jumping around and cheering for the game was amazing. I'm still on a high from the win even after driving back starting out at about 9 am. Too much fun and I hope we can do it again sometime. Go Cowboys!!!!!

Phone Upgrade +

At work on Thursday took a trip over to Target next door. Wandering around, I asked the electronics guy of they had a phone buy back program like I had seen online. He let me about the sweet deal they had going. They bought my old iPhone 3G back for $100 on a gift card and then had the iPhone 4 on sale for $75 with upgrade. So I upgraded to the 4 and still had $25 left on the gift card. It was a good deal, basically got a free case. The salesman was really good and even gave me a red card discount. It was my lucky day. The next day during my haircut, I was told I was going bald and they tried to sell me a rogain type shampoo. Not my lucky day. Later,

To the OSU family,

It is with the deepest of sorrow that I inform you that the Oklahoma State University family lost two members last night when women's basketball coach Kurt Budke and assistant women's basketball coach Miranda Serna were killed in a plane crash in Perry County, Arkansas.


Coach Budke and Coach Serna were on a recruiting trip. The pilot and a fourth person, who were not affiliated with OSU, also were killed. There were no survivors.


Kurt was an exemplary leader and a man of character who had a profound impact on his student-athletes. He was an outstanding coach and a wonderful person. We send our deepest sympathies to his wife, Shelley, and their children, Sara, Alex and Brett.


Miranda was an up-and-coming coach and a great recruiter. She was an outstanding role model for our young ladies.


I ask that you join me in extending your thoughts and prayers to the families of these two wonderful individuals.


Burns Hargis, OSU President



OSU will hold a press conference regarding the Cowgirl Basketball program this morning at 10:30. It will be streamed on OKState.TV.

Thoughts & Prayers

Proud and immortal
Bright Shines Your Name
Oklahoma State
We Herald Your Fame
Ever You'll Find Us
Loyal and True
To Our Alma Mater
O-S-U

Sad day for the OSU family with the loses of our OSU Cowgirl Basketball coaches and others in a plane crash. Thoughts and prayers are going out to all those impacted.

K & C's BIG Book of Don'ts

So, add another one to our list of things that shouldn't be. Kendra and I should really run things. We can get things straightened out! List item for today of things that shouldn't be: Daylight Savings Time. It gets dark way too early, there's no need for the time change and it messes with my sleep! Why is it dark before 7, because everyone set their clocks back an hour, that's why. It gets dark way too early in the evenings, I get tired and I don't feel like doing anything. Annoying. Do we still need this time change for farming? Isn't that why we decided to mess with the clocks? The number of people farming has dropped and it's increasingly mechanical which doesn't care what time of the day it's light outside. Just saying. So, they say we got an extra hour of sleep with the fall back hour time change, well I don't agree. My internal clock is still set on the same time, so I was just up earlier and tired later. Now, I need to adjust to get up and then not do anything in the evenings because it's dark. Whine, whine, whine, I'm pretty good at it. Let's see what else we can add this BIG Book of Don'ts, I know we have a lot on our list. Later,

Maggie's Fall

Maggie's Fall I am currently reading Ricki's book, Maggie's Fall. I know, I am a slow reader, but I am picking it back up! Good read, and I hope Ricki keeps the story going or writes some more!
