Congratulations George and Laura

You know when family ends up fun and you really wish you had more time? Well I for one am glad that this is exactly how I feel as I get ready to leave LA. I can't believe the way some people just end up clicking and it's such a plus to know that you're relayed to overall good peeps.

the plane

So I heard recently that if you wear sunglasses indoors, you are either blind or a douchebag. Hmm, I know that it does tend to sway me as well when I see that... It makes me think that somebody is too cool to be amongst social norms. As I sit on the airplane - somewhere in the middle in row 22, I see this dude sporting really bulky Oakleys. Not bad glasses at all, and at the price I'm sure you paid for them dude, they came with a case. It's so annoying to me when I think of people who somehow think they deserve or expect some kind of special treatment. Gotta love it when everybody and their mama is a pre-Madonna who acts like a celebrity that's being followed around by the paparazzi. This guy has literally called for the flight attendant about 3-5 times on a 3 hour flight that's 2 hours old. Um, get over yourself. Even funnier, he flipped them up to look at the sunny scenery.

Football depression w/a highlight

I'm so used to having my nephews do very well at sports... At least one has gone UNDEFEATED for the entire season - but the KYF Pee Wee Broncos did indeed lose their last game. If there was one to lose, it was this one... but I've been spoiled, and it's a bummer nonetheless....

The Broncos did respond in the first round of the playoffs w/a hard fought victory, scoring the game-winning TD on their last possession... 2 more wins needed... Fight Hard and beware when you line up against this "little" guy.

Now for all of the sadness associated with my recent football woes. Austin's season is over, but not before fighting hard and earning respect. The 2nd year expansion team fought hard and went 7-2 but losing to a stacked team with a ginormous O and D line. I did see this huge #90 kid take a swing at a Falcon - and only get called for a personal foul. I saw 2 Broncos ejected for the remainder of a game as well as the next game for just a hair over the same infraction - collusion? I find myself feeling like a conspiracy theorist, until I hear the parents talking. I've witnessed the politics, ridiculous officiating -- as well as the complete opposite. Alas - I am sad that the Falcons' season is over, but at least I don't have to see the bad stuff...(as I'm trying to keep it positive)

Season Lows
1. Grown man yells at coach (on the same team), pulls his son, embarrasses him so badly he can't stop crying, but GETS what he wants!

2. Star QB and S goes down with a broken leg

3. Team gives up on a game



I will miss seeing this





Texas: no comment, there is nothing positive to say except they won the game I went to

Texans: breaking my heart


***POSITIVE*** It's not too late for the Texans
