To this day I often wonder why I have so many back issues? My back hurts when I sit for long periods of time. My back hurts when I stand for long periods of time. The list goes on. Then you take a look at the below picture and it all becomes so clear. :) Sure this picture is not the sole reason, but I spent many a days sitting on bleachers my entire life. My brothers and I were very involved in basketball (actually all athletics), but mainly basketball. I would go to weekend-long AAU tournaments and below is what would happen. As much as the picture below would make you think otherwise, I LOVED going to my brother's games. Sometimes I loved running around with the other kids more than watching the actual game, but I really did love going. And then of course I loved even more when I got older and was able to participate myself.
To be completely honest, I've been told by Doctors I have an extremely "straight as a board" spine, which provides me no cushion and therefore causes a lot of my back issues. So I guess I really can't blame it on the years of bleacher sitting. :) But this picture really does make me laugh. How could I even be close to comfortable enough to sleep in a position like that?! I guess being that tired, you can sleep anywhere and anyhow.
And on a side note, don't you just love the Nike high tops and rolled up jeans?! My foot looks gigantic. Man, I was so cool. Or atleast I thought I was. :)

Those shoes are awesome! I can see a lot of these days in Annalee's future!
