Not so fast!

1. I'm going to start putting the readings and assignments at the bottom of the posts. As we get closer to Christmas, they're starting to get a little more serious and ponderful (it is too a word), and my daily posts are not necessarily such.
2. I'm purposely writing this prior to THE game. I want to keep my tone hopeful and positive, instead of boastful and gloating after the game.

With that being said...Happy SEC Day, y'all! It's the best day of the year. All SEC fans can concur that unless your bowl game is THE bowl game, it is simply not as important as the SEC Championship game. Last year, this was my favorite game of the year. This year, I've been looking forward to it for quite some time.

For your benefit, here is the anatomy of a Southern girl's SEC Day.
8:45      wake up in time to hop in the shower before Game Day
9:00      Game Day. Lee Corso says "Not so fast!" Watch as much as I can while getting ready for baby shower.
10:00    Get present and go to baby shower. I'd like to take a moment to thank the organizers of said baby shower for having it early in the day so that I could make it home for THE game.
1:00     Come home and watch the Game Day that you missed. Am I the only girl around that tapes Game Day?
2:00    Pregame show. A must watch whilst last minute preparations are taking place.
3:00    THE game. Have plenty of snacks and plenty of things to keep my hands busy. Allow myself a four hour free pass for the words that come out of my mouth. Forgiveness will be asked later.

As for the rest of the day...who knows...there will be singing and dancing, or tears and gnashing of teeth. My money's on the dancing.

Readings:
Deuteronomy 18:15-19

Assignment:
Gather Together

Write about a specific holiday song that has meaning to you.
- This one's easy. Christmas Cannon by Trans-Siberian Orchestra. Hopefully, hopefully, hopefully I will some day walk down THE aisle to this song. I'll be getting married in December, close to Christmas, and this song is perfect.  It is Pachabel's Cannon in D with Christmas lyrics. The lyrics talk of anticipation, dreaming, and waiting. Perfect for Christmas, perfect for my wedding (Lord willing.)

Now to find a picture that represents that song...
