Becksy is Sexy...

I went to opening night of the Colorado Rapids on Saturday...it was pretty fun! I'm not so much into professional soccer, but it was opening night and the LA Galaxy were in town and the LA Galaxy means David Beckham. Jessica came with me and we met up with Jolea, Jess, Mitzi and Andy prior to the game...but not before they stalked Becks in their hotel lobby ;-)

Jessica and I pretty much cracked ourselves up with running commentary (with British accents) about 'ol Becks. He has quite the interesting role on the team, the biggest of which is apparently running to make sure every guy (on either team) who fell to the ground in pain (which happened a lot...drama queens) was ok. We figured he was offering to have Posh get them a bandaid. The Rapids schooled the Galaxy and won 4-0...we left about 10 minutes early and of course missed two red card ejections...I remember when I played soccer and I got a red card ejection once...that was a good day ;-)

Me and Jessica...we're so funny!

Afterwards, Jessica and I "went out" with a group of her friends for a birthday party downtown. Needless to say, I rolled home at 4am (about 6 hours past my usual bed time). It was tons of fun but yes, I'm too old for this behavior. I awoke to the piercing ring of my phone by my parents calling to ask about the Texas game. So, hungover and tired, we headed out to watch the game with the Texas Exes and let's just say...Texas put up an embarassing display and lost (at least it was only by 18 points, not 20). The highlight of the game? My friend's 10-year-old stepson calling to talk trash.
