I love you, OU & U2 too.

Last weekend was a big weekend.

First and foremost, Leeanne had a special birthday! She turned __ years old, and for a gal who's __ years old and pregnant, if I met her for the first time tomorrow I'd still fall in love with her.

Also last week, my buddy Brad called with an extra ticket to see the OU/TX game. Huge thanks go out to him for that. We rode the DART down to Fair Park and hit the State Fair a little early before the game. I made the delicious mistake of trying chicken-fried bacon. I gotta say it tasted pretty good, but a little definitely goes a long way.

As for the game itself, it was ugly football. Don't kid yourselves Longhorns, y'all played ugly, too. But like good sports we managed to keep the peace in the spirit of a bipartisan nation when we ran into Drew after the game.


Then, Sunday we went up to Norman to see U2 in concert. Neither of us had ever seen them before - they've been on my list of must-see concerts for a while - and it meant getting back home to Dallas at almost three in the morning, but even Leeanne will tell you it was worth it. It's hard to explain but you can't watch them perform live and not think that you are watching the best band in the world. Bono is an iconic rock star, and they are an iconic band. It's truly an uplifting experience and I would love to see them again.


So truly a great weekend, on many levels, more of which we'll share soon. As everyone keeps telling us, the best is yet to come. So get on your boots!
