I'm looking forward to the game tomorrow

I don't follow the stats and I pick my team based on who's uniform I like best (Sorry, SF) but we are all going to be there. My dad and step-mom, my FIL and SIL, me and Lover Boy and my brother and his kids. We're going to have a massive spread of food and lots of cheering. It'll be like a second family Chrismas except the commercials are better and it doesn't set you back a few hundred.

I'm genuinely excited.

Ooh! And Lover Boy challenged my brother to a chili cook-off.

How about you?

1. Going to take down the xmas tree.

Go for a walk if it's not too cold.

Look for a movie to rent and maybe read a book.

But it sounds like you're going to have a good time.

We did my birthday last Saturday and I cooked cassoulet for 30. There was a river of wine and much "wretched excess". We're still recovering.

Looking forward to Mardi Gras.

2. "wretched excess"

You say that like it's a bad thing.

3. It has been the "Season of Wretched Excess"

Starting just before Thanksgiving.

I think we went to 10 parties and hosted 3 between then and now.

Plus going out to dinner 4 or 5 times.

It's been fun and now my "quack" is going to give me a whole raft of shite over my weight (although, because I'm lucky it's going down pretty quickly).
