Tuesday morning and back to normal
December 12th 2006 16:15
Good morning everyone,
Finally have my house back. My mother-in-law has been staying for us for the past 10 days (I know). Usually that has been a cause for much consternation in the household but this trip has been alright. Of course there were the usual “suggestions” of what we can do better but it was very toned down this trip. If it stays like this all the time then the trips won’t be bad. I was fearful before the trip because as I mentioned my wife works and I am home and this has been the first trip she’s had with my wife at work so it was just her and I in the house. I was very nervous but not so bad I’m pleased to report. She actually went to work with my wife today so I have to pick her up and take her to the airport in a couple of hours but as of 2:00 this afternoon, I am free.
All the kids are either healthy or getting better so I am finally back into my routine of anxiously waiting for my baby to go to sleep so I can type. So now on to the bane of my existence…football. I have written previously, I hate football and love it at the same time. I enjoy watching the games but am always disappointed, either with being a Jets fan or by the weekly spreads pool I am in. (Once again IRS members, it is just for fun, no money involved) I am in 13th place, and pulled a 9 this week but of course the people ahead of me all did 10 or better so I lost ground. With only 3 weeks left, it’s not looking good. The guy that won the week, got a 14…FOURTEEN?! That means only 2 wrong for the entire week with the spreads, unbelievable. That is why I can’t win anything.
Forgot to mention this yesterday, but Sleeper Cell started this past Sunday night, now I have to say that I love 24, I think it is gripping television and am glued to the set. 24 has nothing on Sleeper Cell. The thing about Sleeper Cell is I can see it happening. It is plausible to me whereas 24 is ludicrous at times. Still great TV but unrealistic. I would give you my review right now on it but as I’ve said earlier we tivo everything. No lie, we now have three full tivos full of programming. That’s 216 hours of television that we’re behind. We are really at the season premiers for the fall season right now and it’s tough to catch up with my wife falling asleep at 9:30 every night. Shows have already been cancelled that we still have on our tivo. Yesterday, I had to make a tough executive decision of what to erase in order to record our Monday night CBS lineup and Sleeper Cell. So bye bye Six Degrees. If anybody was a big fan of that show, I apologize but since it was already cancelled, it cleared around 6 hours from my tivo. So, it may have been the greatest show of all time but now, we’ll never know. So in case you wanted my Sleeper Cell review, check back here around March and I’ll give it to you.
Will post later about my growing aggravation with the Mets.
Later,
Jonathan
