My girls

So since I became obsessed with the Miike Snow song I posted last week, I have been kind of crazed. I am making the perfect Amy Cotlow mix CD. This is my compilation:

Ok, nevermind. Apparently I can't copy and paste into blogger. Lame. I don't have an order yet, but once I do, I will post it.

On Thursday, Daniel and I went to a Seahawks preseason game v. the Raiders. Here's the story behind us being into football...

So last year when Nolan, Aaron and I lived in Portland together, Daniel came down once a month on average, and we went to Seattle about the same. Once when Daniel came down (a sunny September weekend) Nolan was working and Aaron had scouted out a San Diego Chargers bar in Portland: Claudia's. Daniel and I tagged along because we didn't really have that much going on. It was a beautiful sight. Daniel and I were completely clueless. Strangers high fiving, bumping chests, buying each other drinks, and yelling at a television screen.

Daniel and I decided that this was something we definitely wanted to be in on. So we went online and looked at all the NFL teams. We didn't know about AFC and NFC, but that didn't matter. We each picked ten teams based on team colors, mascot, location - you know - things that matter. And whatever avereaged out to be the highest on both of our lists (if anything) would be our team. Well Minnesota Vikings was 4 on his list, and 2 on mine. We were told that we had to have both an AFC and an NFC team, Vikings are top, Buffalo Bills are second.

It didn't take much convincing to get Nolan in on it, too. So the three of us have been Vikings fans for one year.

Anyhow, I have grown up going to Arizona Cardinals games. I don't remember them fondly, but my dad tells me that I loved it. However, Daniel has never been to a football game. Ever! One of our managers moved to Olympia and was selling his preseason tickets to work folk, and we bought the one against the Raiders. Oh, we also have teams that we hate. These include: the Browns, Raiders, Texans, and the Cowboys.

I took pictures to document Daniel's First Football Game extravaganza. About 30 of them of of us just taking pictures of our faces. Thats fine, I'll still include them.

1. Garden cucumber and tomato (finally!!) and onion for our tailgate dogs.

2. Since we don't have a car, and live 20 blocks up the Jackson from the stadium, we just biked there, and "tail gated here". I also call this, the loneliest corner in Seattle.

3. We brought beer but didn't think about cups or public drinking. They were giving out free AMP energy drinks, so we drank that and poured beer into it. Ridiculous.

4. Dogz n Beerz

5. Game!

6. The stadium ran out of ketchup, good thing we had mustard in out backpacks!

7. AmyandDanielfunohwow!

8. Stadium ish shot.

Anyways, sorry the captions are way down here.

My new obsession is Animal Collective "My Girls"

I spent 200 dollars on online clothes shopping today. For my birthday. Well, I got 175 dollars and family birthday money, so it was basically that.

Oh yeah, my birthday is Tuesday! I have the day off and have no idea what I am going to do. I want to play outside, but I think it is fall now. Which means rain. Which means probably no parks. Or maybe I can have a rainy picnic. That would be amazing, actually.

I accidentally lost weight. I am going to guess 8 or 9 pounds.

Overrrr.
