Do I Have To?

Seems like the calendar tells me that it's already Sunday, which makes tomorrow Monday, which inevitably means I have to go to work....do I have to? It's not that I don't enjoy my job, but I'd rather stay at home and get things done around the house - who wouldn't?! This weekend was a rollercoaster! Friday we went to Richmond to see a movie with friends (I personally don't recommend "Underworld Evolution" but everyone else with me enjoyed it, so what do I know!) and then on Saturday headed to Indy to play (and win) poker.

My pottery class begins tomorrow - I really hope it's all I hope for. A little bird told me that Betsy won a new car last week - way to go Betsy, you're probably the luckiest person I've ever known! Off to watch West Wing - wondering what they're going to do with Leo's character.

Tuesday Feels Like Monday!

It was nice not working yesterday, but I didn't really accompish much - big surprise! I did make it to the much dreaded Wal-Mart. What an internal struggle I have with that place - I can't stand Wal-Mart for so many reasons, but they really are the cheapest and have just about everything I need in one place. I'm going to try to stand firm and NOT go to Wal-Mart any more - it's difficult when you're trying to save money. It's a good excuse to go to Target though - Target, I love you!

Back to work today after a day off, and I find myself in a slump. I am enjoying my job, but I still feel there's something I'm supposed to be doing out there.....somewhere! If I were a risk-taker at all I would tempt fate, but I'm not, so here I stay! Okay, my break is over.

What a bummer of a day! The Colts lost 18-21. Our household is completely bummed, but they had a GREAT season and we can't wait until next season. I will be unable to root for the Steelers next week; their cockiness is frustrating. For all the Colts fans out there; stay strong and GO BLUE....it will be our year eventually.

I'm Feeling GOOD about the BIG Game - GO COLTS!



The Colts get ready to cream the Steelers in about 30 minutes and I can't wait! I learned the game of football about three years ago thanks to my crazy football fan husband Mitch, and increasingly, I have become one of "those people" who are obsessed with the Colts! Marvin Harrison (he likes when I call him "Marvy" of course) is my favorite player, and I am sure he'll pull it out today! I'm trying not to get too cocky about the game today, but I'm feeling REALLY good about it! Pretty happy Denver beat the Patriots last night - we're only 2 games away from the SuperBowl - does it get much better than this? Mitch and I were joking this morning that we have a knot in our stomachs like we did as kids Christmas morning with all the anxiety! I've made the weekly Colts food spread and Dustin and Julie are coming over to watch the game. Jeremy and Sarah came by last night to watch the Patriots get creamed (admittedly we didn't watch the game too intently when it was pretty clear Denver was going to win). All in all, I'm pretty excited about the game and also the fact that I don't have to work tomorrow.

I find it really sad that I just recently started this blog, and still haven't been able to keep up and post photos of recent visits to various cities with friends....I'm working on it, I promise! Of course, no time today.....gotta go heat up the spinach artichoke dip.
