America's biggest holiday

What's everyone doing for the Superbowl anyway?

You know, running with the politicos, the queers, and the feminists, it's easy to come off as all butch. I mean, I am familiar with guns, I'm big-ish, I am meanly sarcastic, and I follow professional sports. My friends find that amusing and sometimes ask me to speak on behalf of all "normal" white guys.

Usually I watch the Super Bowl at my tough-ass co-worker's house. The one who used to drum for the almost-famous all woman punk/metal band. She would cook meat on the grill and make chili. She couldn't host this year so I'm just watching it with another male friend. We just checked in about food. I made cookies. He's making quiche. This is why I may not be the best spokesperson for my people.

Oh yeah, and the next participatory photo post will be people in political message t-shirts. Don't post them yet. Just get ready.

you know from my lj post last night that i went to a party at my friends' place. the cheese i brought was a huge success, G! there was nothing left but some random bits of rind. i was happy, but also sad. no leftovers to bring home.

my daughter A won $100 on the football pool. she was so excited. she *loves* football now. :) and she's such a good-hearted little sister -- she split the money with H, who was too self-conscious to write her name in squares on the big white poster board.

i saw very little of the game, despite the fact that it was showing on 3(!) TVs at my friends' place. too many people, too much food, too chaotic. i'm happy to be home, especially now that my girls are in bed. peace and quiet. *sigh*

well, there's more cheese where that came from. and what a great daughter! I never would have shared $100 with my siblings.
