Ready for Monday. For MONDAY, that's crazy talk.

Dammit, I missed three birthdays yesterday. I had no idea what the date was until I looked at my calendar this morning. OH. it's the SIXTH. Whoops. Happy belated birthday to my SISTER (durr) Annajoy, to Kassie and Kita. I'm sorry, ladies, I have just been on hibernation mode for a week, now.

The whole metroplex has been shut down for days. Yesterday came a thaw, which meant that everyone (and I mean everyone) scrambled out of their houses to bask in the weird, eerie light from a glowing ball in the sky. WHAT HAVE I DONE TO THE GODS? Why are they burning me?! Oh, I did something good? Thanks, Gods.

We were like everyone else and headed out to the mall to see if we could get some things done that had been put off for the week. And it's packed. Hey, maybe you knew there was this big sporting even happening in town, the Super... something. So the whole area has been flooded with people going to the game, people coming here to sit in the parking lot and hear the game, people that have come here to be with their friends and families so they can say they were in Dallas during the game. Green and yellow (green and yellow green and yellow DAMN YOU LIL WAYNE) and the hated black with diamonds are everywhere.

I'll just say this: the enemy of my enemy is my friend. GO PACKERS.

We are staying in, I'm not even interested in going to any of the parties we've been invited to, I don't want all of the noise noise noise during the game, because I actually like football and all of the wives I run with here don't. So.

More rain/snow is in the forecast, and if these kids don't go back to school, I'm going to have to start schoolmarm-ing it up here at the house. Their brains are gonna get soft!

ENJOY YOUR DAY TODAY. OH! One last thing, my former "movie husband" in a little film I did called St. Nick, Andrew Sensenig - some of you that watch Friday Night Lights will remember him from a short story arc as a sleazy salesman, Flaherty - is the star of Budweiser's new commercial, where he plays an old time barkeep. I couldn't be happier for him to have gotten a national ad, that's the big leagues, kids. He's also an absolutely delightful human being, too. Keep an eye out for him!

Snow and ice one day, 68° the next! Texas weather is never boring.

Go Packers, because it rocks that they're a community owned non-profit!

"Go Packers, because it rocks that they're a community owned non-profit!"

Well, that and they're not from Pennsylvania! No to Steelers and Eagles, always! :D

(Rogue icon because she wears Green and Gold?)

Also, as someone who lived in Wisconsin for a while: Go Packers, because their fans are people who will give you bratwurst and beer just for showing up, and who won't hold it against you for not coming to work the next day since you're hungover, because they aren't going in, either. And who will even still consider Favre part of the family, despite being a vile betrayer to the Vikings.

PACK ATTACK, YEYEY.

What is up with IMDB? Every time I click there I get a "page not found" error, yet somehow it seems to be working for everyone else. :(

Stoney, I want the snow to go far, far away!!!

[stoney321.livejournal.com]

That's weird! Can you just go to imdb, not the actor page? Bizarre.

I want the snow and cold to go away, too!! NO LIKE. We've almost tripled our annual snow fall in a matter of days, yo. (I mean, ok, it's under a foot of snow, but when you don't normally get that, it makes it a big deal.)

No snow here since last week and the lake is thawing out. Kind of weird looking at it now, considering I was walking on it while gathering the branches from across.

I live where we have warm weather for almost 8 months out of the year, so snow and ice is almost crippling to us. Well, no almost, the entire region was shut down for a few days.

[minstrel666.livejournal.com]

Don't worry. I live in a country where we have only 130 days of sun a year and winter still comes as a surprise to the road authorities.

PUPPY BOWL PUPPY BOWL PUPPY BOWL

that is all.

[minstrel666.livejournal.com]

You and Herr Wendig are of the same mind (http://terribleminds.com/ramble/2011/02/06/on-this-day-of-the-foot-and-the-ball-we-will-instead-speak-of-puppies/), it seems.

[stoney321.livejournal.com]

MY KIDS ARE SUPER EXCITED ABOUT PUPPY BOWL. Also, I hear that they are going to have CHEERLEADERS, OMG.

[elizardbits.livejournal.com]

CHICKEN AND CHIHUAHUA CHEERLEADERS YES YES

As I was just shrieking incoherently elsewhere, last year they had hamster commentators flying over the field in a tiny blimp. A TINY BLIMP!

[stoney321.livejournal.com]

I will have to rely on my children's breathless commentary from upstairs on this years Puppy Bowl as I will be watching the Packers destroy the reviled Steelers on my huge-ass TV.

[elizardbits.livejournal.com]

As I was explaining to my amusedly horrified trainer at the gym yesterday, the only way I would watch the Super Bowl is if they took off all the protective gear and also used swords. Or if the losing team was sacrificed to the sporting gods.

[ryokomusouka.livejournal.com]

THAT, I would pay money to go see live.

[ladycyndra.livejournal.com]

YAY THE STONEY IS FREE!!

Yeah I pretty much don't give a flying crap about the Superbowl today because of who's playing, though I agree that it should be Green Bay because I hate the Steelers WAY more.

[stoney321.livejournal.com]

Packers all the way! Well, because the Cowboys aren't going to be there, BOO.

[ladycyndra.livejournal.com]

Here's to our Boys next year!!

[moonlite-n-rose.livejournal.com]

Go Steelers!!! *runs away*

[stoney321.livejournal.com]

YEAH YOU BETTER RUN! *wieps nose on sleeve, points*

[serenemiss.livejournal.com]

It's snowing right now in Lubbock, coming down pretty good, actually, but it's not sticking. It's just a bit too warm, and I think it rained last night. So, snow doesn't stick and just melts upon contact with pre-existing water. Lame!

I'm a Cowboys fan, which means I don't really care about any of the other teams... but I don't want the Steelers to win, so I guess I'm cheering for the Packers. Plus, Tech's previous QB (Graham Harrell) is with GB, though he doesn't play.

[stoney321.livejournal.com]

I care about any team kicking the pants off the Steelers, the Colts, or the Eagles. I will always root for who's playing those teams. :)

I wondered how you were doing with all the hordes of people descending upon you. I'd be like you and hole up in my cave until they all went away. :-)

I'll keep an eye out for your friend's commercial! The ads are the best part of the Super Bowl for me.

[stoney321.livejournal.com]

Yesterday was pretty crazy - the airport had been shut down for days, so it was like someone split open a hive and bees came swarming out, buzzing all over the city.

The ads are the best! And I'm so excited that a good friend is going to be in one Newsweek called one of the best that will show. COOL!

I'll just say this: the enemy of my enemy is my friend. GO PACKERS.

Woot! Love seeing this. Thanks and here's hoping. :)

If it can't be us...

[stoney321.livejournal.com]

I'm glad it's y'all.

I'm seeing favorable odds for the Pack, so let's hit it, Green and Yellow, Green and Yellow, Green and Yellow, Green and Yellow!
