Superbowl? Oh. Who's playing?

I'm not a big football fan. I'll watch a game if Damm is interested, and I know the basic mechanics of the game, but that's it. I do enjoy the parties but this year we decided not to do anything so I didn't request off of work, which is fine. It means the employees who are true football fans don't have to suffer.

But the Superbowl was Sunday. I had an interesting weekend before we got to that part: On Friday I did my usual close-followed by six hours sleep-followed by opening on Saturday. We had pizza, I almost ate an entire pizza, took a shower and then cuddled with the Miniorc. I was out, but not fully asleep. Have you ever experienced it when your body goes into a coma-like state? Aware, but not able (without some serious willpower) to move? That's what happened to me for about two hours. Then we put the kiddos to bed and I stayed up with Damm a bit, then we both went to bed.


Two hours later we were up again because the Miniorc has had the type of cough that shows up only at night. We did the routine: humid shower, humidifier, the only type of cough syrup safe for two-year old. It wasn't working so we went into the living room to watch t.v. Two and a half hours later Miniorc was calm and cough-free enough to go to bed.

And so we're up to Sunday. I only had two cups of coffee before heading into work (the weekends are my long days). I felt barely human: couldn't smile, couldn't retain more than two words in my head. I finally remembered that I could buy caffeine and did so. The change was immediate: I could smile, I could remember and oh yeah I can totally move faster than a snail!


All hail the cup of coffee.

I got home from work (the place deadified around 6 p.m., which is when I suspect halftime was happening and who wants to miss Madonna?) to watch the final exciting seconds. Someone wasn't sure he was supposed to score and another person missed a Kodak moment to catch the ball and one of the coaches looked really, really mad. If I thought really hard about it I could tell you who the teams were that were playing, but I'm not doing that. You probably know already.

Maybe next year we'll have a party, and I could give you an entire games-worth of "that player did that! and he had a purple jersey! and then this dude did this crazy thing, and I think he was wearing orange ..." I'm sure you would have a blast reading that, right?

The Cat is Out of the Bag

I wonder where that expression comes from? There is this fabulous book that can tell you, only I forgot the name of it. Next time I come across it I think I'm going to have to buy it. Anyway. I was going to wait. A long time. Maybe forever. I don't like people coming up and hugging me, smiling and saying congratulations, or asking me questions. But Damm was talking to his recruiter about insurance. And he mentioned something that he should've told the recruiter was non-repeatable, because 5 minutes later the recruiter told Damm's mother (I have no earthly idea why he's talking to her-I keep forgetting to ask). After that I had to tell my mother. We haven't told any extended family members because there are quite a few here celebrating Damm's mother's graduation and that would be the worst form of torture I can imagine. So yeah, I'm knocked up again :P And this time I'm getting the t-shirt. "It" is due August 11. I have not been to a doc...

For the Empress and the Motherland

I finally got the gluing done after getting generic brand normal freakin original superglue. Gorilla glue foams and takes 30 min to dry. The guy at hobby lobby obviously misunderstood me or was a complete retard. I'm trying to give him the benefit of the doubt seeing as he was dealing with me in full on manic state. So I'm really excited about my new hobby and cannot wait to start priming and painting. For those that play I'm planning on playing mostly with pIrusk to start but eventually fessing up the money for a jack heavy Karchev list. Because jacks are awesome and -nearly- jack warcasters are also awesome. Anyways thats what Dammy is up to. Our blog has wavered a lot in focus from its origional WoW roots but that is life. Right now I'm kinda interested in Cata but not a lot. Without a surplus of interest from Wulfa I'm very unlikely to return to the game. School kicks up next week. Cannot wait. Even with books being as expensive as they are(and yes th...
