This was my horoscope today…
“Has an anxious go-getter taken possession of your body? You hardly feel like yourself today. If you find yourself getting mad about how long something is taking, take a breath and look out the window.”
Interestingly enough, this is completely fitting for how I feel right now. It is that time of the year when my time is not my own. I am overscheduled, overworked, overtired, over-caffeinated, yet at the same time, I enjoy it so much that I truly look forward to the busyness of the holidays.
As most know, yesterday was the much anticipated Apple Cup between the Huskies and the Cougars. This is a game that I look forward to and trash talk until the day the game actually arrives. 
I awoke at 6am yesterday morning and threw on as much purple as I could to show off my Husky Pride. I got to the stadium around 9am, met up with friends, trash-talked a little more, played some games, and kick off. I didn’t go to the stadium with a ticket, but I was able to purchase one at the gate for $50. Not bad. The crowd was awesome and the cold weather didn’t phase any of the fans. People kept warm screaming at the top of their lungs, while some fans barked and other fans chanted cheers.
The game was a blast up until the last 30 seconds. The Cougs made that last touchdown to break the tie and take the lead. My heart sank and I looked around at the disappointment on all the faces of my fellow Huskies. Faces were solemn and even some had tears. This is not just a game, but it is also the right to brag for the next year and I do not get that right this year. 
So needless to say, my horoscope was right on again. Apple Cup signifies the beginning of the crazy holiday season for me and from now until Christmas, my world is full of hustle and bustle. But I can’t complain. I LOVE this time of year and I couldn’t be happier. (well, except if my Dawgs had won).
