day 62

longest day of my life.

games ran from 9 to 5. we planned on leaving the hotel at 630, but hil-dawg overslept, so we all just chilled in the lobby til 7 when she graced us with her presence. in her defense though, she uses her phone as an alarm clock, but her phone has gone insane and stopped working properly meaning her alarm didn't go off.

anywhoo, when we got to the fields, we set stuff up and then i joined morgan (a kick-it sponsorship intern) under the jif tent. my duties for the day were to work jif. soooooo boring. morgan is cool though, so that helped. we both almost fell asleep multiple times throughout the 8+ hours of games. ugh.

i also had to help out with juicy juice for a little while, but that was even more boring because i didn't have anyone helping me to keep me company. at one point, laura and i had to go around fixing goals and i overheard a mom say, "there goes the jif girl"
WHAT?! just because i spent my morning passing out peanut butter doesn't mean i'm the face of the company! goodness! and then while i was working the juicy juice tent, some guy asked me if juicy juice and jif had the same owners. i said no i didn't think so and i asked him why he asked. he said that he saw me working jif earlier and so he figured that since i was working juicy juice now too that they're owned by the same company....?
really people? did my official kick-it polo not clue you in that i don't work for jif? like why did i get a reputation as the jif girl just because i sat under the tent that had jif samples? had i been wearing a jif polo, i could understand their confusion. but i very obviously work for kick-it since i match all of the 14 other kick-it employees at this event.

AND even if i worked for jif, i still have a name! and that name is shannon, not "jif girl"! ahhh.

anyway, nothing super fun happened today. just the usual complainer parents and hyperactive kids.

when we finally cleaned up and left the site around 6, i was sooooo tired. but the day wasn't over yet. we showered and went to hil-dawgs room to post scores, then ended up watching youtube videos for like an hour. finally we went to dinner at a mexican restaurant in vail village at like 9, had some laughs, and came back. (but laura stayed behind bc she was worn out).
chris and i were twinsies tonight. i saw him wearing a blue shirt and jeans, so when i went to change, i purposely put on a blue shirt and jeans. haha and then we sat next to each other all night just as any twins would.

now i'm back at the hotel, it's almost midnight, and i'm still tired. so i'm off to bed!
nighty night!
