Oh Glorious Day

It's Here. It's Finally Here! The first College Football Saturday of the Year. This is my favorite time of year. Every week has playoff-like atmosphere. Upsets, nailbiters, and out behind the woodshed spankings(hmmm) grace the TV. We went to have dinner at a Sportsbar/Restaurant last night and the bar crowd was yelling and cheering and I glanced up at the screen and noticed that SMU was playing the Rice Owls. SMU vs Rice!!! Hello. You would have thought it was the final seconds of Auburn-LSU at some bar in Baton Rouge. It just goes to show that a sportsfan is a sportsfan is a sportsfan. I will be glued to the TV all day beginning with College game day in just a few hours(MMMM Kirk Herbstreit). Hope you enjoy your Holiday Weekend!

zzzzzzzzzzzzz's

Boy did I catch some Z's last night. Tom and I decided it was time for new pillows. We have been using the same $10.00 pillows for the last 3 years. I have always purchased cheap pillows so when we saw the new Memory Foam Temp controlled pillows I nearly peed myself. Macy's had all pillows at 50% off and an additional 15% if you use your Macy card so we decided to buy 2 Memory Foam pillows and 2 traditional pillows just in case we didn't like the MF. My normal routine is to lay down, watch TV, toss and turn, flip my pillow over a couple of times and finally drift off to sleep. I wake up groggy and desparate for a cup of coffee. NOT TODAY. That damn Pillow was sooo nice. I was in bed at 10 and asleep before 10:30. The hairy beast woke me up at 5 because nature was calling but we ran outside, did our business and came right back in. I was OUT within a minute of hitting that pillow. I am not sure how they do it but there is some magic in that little bundle of joy. If you have the means I HIGHLY recommend one.

Do you want tickets to Johnnie B. and the railroaders?

Huh? Do you? Do you? Do you want me to get new crown molding made of titanium and chewing gum? Do we need to upgrade our ice maker to be HDTV ready? Should I buy the neighbor lady NFL Sunday Ticket? These are all questions that I am asked by the Hubby on a daily basis. He means very well and is one of the most selfless people I know but what's up with all of the strange and borderline useless things that he wants to buy. Even he will admit that he doesn't know the first thing about these bands, tools, appliances, donations that he wants to spend his "hard earned" money on. If he gets an email advertising the latest and greatest furniture touch up paint... He wants 2 cases. If you are peddling software that speeds up your internet connection... SOLD! I fear that in his old age(next year) he will fall prey to telemarketing scams and water softner salespeople. I better go. I think we just became the proud owenrs of a Scandanavian miniture goat with matching goat herder shoes. Oh well. It was on clearance.

Slow Monday

I rarely say this but today was a very nice Monday. The rain kept the temps cool. I worked on a few small projects from home. Had lunch with the Hubby. Walked the Mutt. I really needed to recover from an eventful weekend and today really hit the spot.
