Be of good cheer anyway
April 28, 2006
So I got this shirt late last fall. I thought it was christmas-y. I thought I'd wear it under a hoodie or something. It was had a bit of sparkle, a tree, a nice message. I wore it a few times and then one day I saw myself in the mirror and said "OOOH CHEER" not like be merry and good cheer but like "rah-rah, go team" Cheer. Hmmm. And that ain't no Christmas tree it's a megaphone ya dingbat. Let's be clear- I was and am pretty much the opposite of a stereotypical cheerleader….in highschool I was not popular, pretty, involved, out-going, or social. Definately not a good cheerleading candidate. I didn't want to be either! Anyway this is one of my favorite tee-shirts now because it cracks my hubby and I up everytime I wear it. What I thought it was saying and then me wearing a "go cheerleading" shirt . Well, it is funny to us…
Or maybe ya just had to be there.

That’s pretty funny. I remember one of the girls from our church was supposed to walk around with a box of Cheer laundry detergent one day during spirit week. Is that a normal thing? Until then, I had never associated the word with cheerleading.

Pppfffftttt. I saw the photo and was all, “oh, Angela’s a cheerleader. I never pegged her for one. Hmph.”
I’m so relieved.

No – when I first glanced at the photo I mis-read it as saying Cheers with a beer glass. What does that tell you??!
