Good weekend to be a Buckeye!
mood: 
cheerful
cheerfulWeekends like these make me happy that I am sports fan. It is a cool feeling to be walking around the city, and EVERYBODY has on scarlet and grey, and you can O-H and you get back an I-O, and just the comraderie you feel is awesome. Sports can really bring a city together, and make you feel good. My roommates hosted a party for the buckeye game, so that was fun, especially since neither of them is really into OSU football. Although, one of them might soon have a job at OSU, so I told him he has to be a fan if they are writing his checks and giving him free tuiton! :) So we'll see.
I remember growing up in Toledo as a Buckeye fan. It is a little more dangeous to be a fan of OSU so close to MI. I would say OSU has a slight majority with fans up there, maybe 65% - 35%. The rivalry was almost more intense, because you just came into contact with so many fans from both sides. Frankly, I would be scared to be a Wolverine fan in Columbus, but in Toledo you can definitely get away with it. At the Dead Schembechlers concert on Friday, they gave a shout-out to Toledo, since the Rockets beat UM, so I was cheering super loud. The concert was a lot of fun, and definitely got me pumped for the big game. Even though it was a blow-out, it was still a lot of fun to watch, because of the rivalry. I remember growing up in the 1990s and MI ,for the most part, dominating us, so when we can get a little revenge you have to savor it.
I am excited for Thanksgiving, it's so soon! I only have 2 possible subbing days this week. Most schools' last day is Tuesday. I am heading home Wed. sometime, it depends when my my OSU freshman brother who doesn't have a car, is done with class. It will nice to be home in Toledo, I haven't seen my family since Nov. 1st for my sister's wedding. There is nothing like coming home where your mom cooks for you, and you can just relax!
