It's Friday ... just a few ramblings

It's Friday ... and that means many things ...

1. Sleep late tomorrow

2. Sleep late tomorrow

3. Sleep late tomorrow

No seriously ... Do you realize that in 14 days... yes that's right 14 DAYS I'll be bringing my son home...

Yes my Volunteers take on the Georgia Bulldogs tomorrow in Knoxville. I am NOT going to speculate what the outcome will be. Let's just say that I hope Johnny Majors stays the hell away from Knoxville.
