Who dat won the SuperBowl?!! The Saints, the Saints!!
Ok, I am done. Just a moment of euphoria for the boys back home.
I might decide to wear Saint's colors tomorrow, some random combination of black and gold. To make things more interesting (and tacky) how about gold Mardi Gras beads? Hm....

Football Madness
As if everyone didn't already know - yes, the Saints for the first time ever are going to the Superbowl.
But I'm not going to tell you about that. The funnier story is how I have thought for the past year that my t.v. didn't work, but actually it does. I really am just a moron.
So, there was that stupid "digital t.v." nonsense, and I got a converter box. And I thought I followed the instructions, but apparently I am illiterate (though what would the word be if you can't read/understand pictorial instructions?).
I was talking to my mom about my lack of t.v., looked some up at a few stores on line, realized how expensive they were now, and decided not to worry about it. However, over the phone I should point out, mom was all like did you do x, y, z. And I was all like "my t.v. doesn't have that"....."oh, wait, yes it does." Mom - you should connect blah blah blah. Me "if this works you are not allowed to make fun of me." It worked of course. Mom- in the background trying oh so hard to pretend that she wasn't laughing hysterically b/c to make sure you understand I must point out that she has never seen my t.v. or this converter box thing.
On the positive side, I was all set to watch the Saints game (but actually watched it elsewhere and embarrassed myself even more by failing at a Wii game). On the negative side, watched random t.v. shows all afternoon. At least, I did get to see The Big Bang Theory, which is the funniest show EVER (no, I don't care if you disagree). And now I can see new episodes of Criminal Minds considering I became addicted over break. More ways to procrastinate - not a good start to a fun filled semester of supposedly writing 90+ pages. But it never is....
