"any given Sunday" as the old football saying goes.
Green Bay upset atlanta
Chicago handled seattle
Pitsburg beat the Ravens in a good old knock down drag out football game.
AND, the j e t s jets, walked the walk and than delivered the talk to the Patriots.
So now with New England out, although I will continue to watch football, it wont matter who wins to me.
I watched the game at a sports bar-grill with my twin and father. The food was good and the atmasphere was fun, it's just too bad we didnt win.
I had a salad, some dumplings-pot stickers and a potato skin from an apatizer combo my twin ordered. Then I ordered a wing sampler with buffalo, Teriachi and jarbanaro?. My dad was shocked at the amount of food I ate. I dont know why? Not like he hasnt seen me eat on my hungry days in the last 32 years. Then I had some of the onion rings from his dish too. I may not like a lot of food but that which I do like, I love.
Of course, as soon as the last seconds ticked off the clock of the game the first thoughts from my mind was "27 more days till pitchers and catchers report" I am so ready for baseball to begin. I wish I was reporting to spring training.
So my mom got two free nights at my favorite cosino for this month and my older brother has Wed-Thursday's off so we are going down this week. To break up the eating-gambling, my older brother, Robert and I are going to a comidy show Wednesday night and to the Hard Rock they have to listen to a band play on Tuesday night.
My mom will take advantage of the pool, hottub and spa on Wednesday afternoon.
It will be lots of fun and I think for all of us, it will be like a minny get-away/vacation.
And when I win a millian dollars, I will send you each something in the mail.

I am sure that whom ever my future wife is, even if she doesnt like baseball, even if she doesn't care much for Bon Jovi, even if Chinese food is to be had every once in a while instead of once a week, I am sure she will love the passion and love which I hold for the few things I do enjoy in life. Not that I can see myself being with someone who doesnt like those things. *laughs*
Thoughts and prayers go out to all of my bloop buddies who are having a hard time right now.
I hope you find the strength and will to not only battle through this but to find something in each day to put a smile on your face.
