Stayed up late last night building a super computer while my wife worked on her super new networking group stuff. Woke up today, Superbowl Sunday, feeling super good about 8am. Had a superbowl of Mini Wheats, sat down and read the news (which wasn’t all that super). Did my morning news sweep. Every site I went to had prominent articles about the Superbowl. Helped a client with a super tricky web site issue. When I responded within a minute of receiving his email he replied, “What? Working on Superbowl Sunday! Sacrilegious!”
A few hours later I conversed with my new super duper CPA. I am super anxious about tax season and hoping the IRS doesn’t take a super amount of money from us. He said, “We can meet tomorrow since today is Superbowl Sunday and all. “ Super, I sighed. Shortly afterward my son came downstairs and was super disappointed to learn we weren’t going anywhere to celebrate the big day…”We aren’t going anywhere for Superbowl Sunday?? Everyone in the whole wooooorld is doing something except for us.”
A few minutes later I got a text from my brother-in-law saying we should come watch the Superbowl at his house. Another friend sent me an email asking if I had got his Superbowl e-vite. He wanted to know was I coming or what? Geez I can’t be everywhere at once. Do these people think I’m superman?
My super awesome mom called to tell me that she had just learned my super cool childhood priest was returning to our hometown parish to be the pastor there. We agreed that was super news. I asked what my dad was up to and she said he was getting ready to watch–you guessed it–the Superbowl.
Right about that time I got drowsy and went into the study to take a nap. The second my head hit the pillow our dog burrowed under the futon for some shut-eye of her own. We took a super peaceful nap for a good two hours. When I awoke I ate a few incredibly stale Cheez-its my wife had just purchased from Wal Mart only a half hour earlier. They were super duper chewy and disgusting. Only Wal Mart could mess up a box of Cheez its.
Went to church at 6pm. Our priest made some jokes about the thin Superbowl Sunday crowd. “You must be basketball fans” he quipped. Afterwards we went to Wal Mart because I needed to buy some blank DVD’s super quick. The second I walked in I was blasted with a wave of corporate logos and slogans and superbowl sales. Pick me!!! all the products seemed to plead. I surrendered to bottle of Sierra Mist with Cranberry splash. It was super yummy with my wife’s super delicious whole wheat pasta with red sauce tonight. What a superwoman that wife of mine is.
All in all, it was a super day.. without the bow, that is
Have a super week everybody!
