update and T-Town Throwdown...

So, things have been a little crazy, my work schedule has already changed, and I've been a little bit of everywhere lately (not surprising though!). But I'm starting to be more comfortable in ATL.
Now, the real reason for posting... T-town Throwdown, Tuscaloosa.
It was amazing!!!! I left ATL with Sam on friday night around 6:30, and since we got a HUGE craving for O'Charley's, we had an adventure Talledega. Oh, what an experience. We finally made it to Tuscaloosa and headed over to McCargos for a little pre-tourny drinking and Apples to Apples. Met Clawson at her house, and me and sam and Clawson stayed up until about 2 am talking. It was so great! Got up Saturday morning and made it to the fields and i immediatly started to become the social buttterfly that i can rarely be. Everyone was there... Auburn girls, Auburn boys, Bama boys, Gracyn, UTC ladies, it was so fun! And of course, because of this i was the last girl with UTK to get my cleats on, run my warm up lap, and stretch, so i got yelled at.

Our first game was against Auburn, and it was really fun. Annie has this killer inside out flick that she uses as her break flick, and i hate it. There wasn't anything that i could do about it!!! But UT won, 13-6. Next was CofC, and that was ridiculous... we played well, threw zone, and won 13-0!!! Next we had a bye, and i sort of just went around and socialized a bit with everyone that i knew. Game three: GA Tech. This was by far our hardest game of the day. We were back and forth all day, but we did pull it out in the end 8-5... i think. And Meredith and Erin each had a Callahan! It was amazing!!!! And McKenna got to come out and watch and she actually got to see me play really well. So that was really fun for me. Then we had to play UTC. This is rivalry that has been going on for a couple of years, and lately UTC has won against us. NOT THIS WEEKEND! We threw zone with a trap cup on them and they didn't know what to do. It was some of the most beautiful ultimate i've ever played or seen!!! we won 13-2 i believe. It was great! So, UT goes 4-0 for the first time ever! Then Erin and I played in the All Star game which was a little ridiculouse, but pretty fun! Headed to Clawson's for showers, and then to a late snack type dinner so that we wouldn't fall asleep before the party. Annie and Robert and Traci from Auburn joined us too. Finally headed to the party around nine, and hung out with the Auburn crowd, but only after stacey, Clawson and I had a red headed slut together. The party was great, and I drank quite a bit, probably the most i've ever had at a tourny. Danced and had a general good time. Got up late on sunday morning, and had to play vandy/nashville team. Took the game 13-1 i think. Then we had to play Birmingham club, and we won that one too, but only after almost falling apart, 13-5. Championship game: UTC vs UTK. Imagine that. So, we were a little over confident, and they wanted it, so it was a little close for me most of the game, but we pulled it out 13-8. IT WAS GREAT. We won the tourny, got an amazing trophy, and I ended up with blisters the size of my hand on both of my feet. But it was all worht it.

Highlights: Playing with Clawson... so amazing as a player, and so fun! TWO CALLAHANS- in a women's game.... HELL YEAH! Seeing everyone... It was so fun! The party was ridiculously fun. Playing with my UT and Knoxville girls... i forget how much fun it is, and how well all of us can really play together, becuase we do know eachother that well. And winning the tourny was pretty fun too!
