We’re having guests. I guess that means I have to vacuum the cat hair off the sofa.
I’m not very excited about this Super Bowl. My football viewing has fallen off since the 49ers started sucking (and yes, I know that was a loooong time ago). And whereas watching football used to be a brainless activity after an exhausting week, I no longer work myself into exhaustion (yay), and Mr. D watches so much damn sports already that I’m loathe to turn on a sporting event if the TV is actually OFF.
Also, I usually have someone to root for. Even if the 49ers were out of the running, I’m always happy to root for the Raiders or the Panthers. And if I don’t have a favorite, I’ll root for my friends’ favorites: so I’ll root for the Bucs for Mom, or the Ravens for Herb, or the Patriots for Jacqui, or the Giants for all my NY friends and family.
So if you think I should be rooting for either the Steelers or the Cardinals, let me know and I’ll maybe I’ll add my own psychic energy to helping your team win.
Speaking of futile gestures, I always find it annoying when sports figures make the sign of the cross or other such religious supplication. Like God gives a shit whether you make the field goal or not. Fortunately, someone has cleared up that question.

I rooted for the Cardinals simply because they were the underdogs! You may want to add that to your list of psychic energy!! Not sure if you care, but it actually was a great game, except of course for Bruce Springsteen who sucked up the place.
