The Big DumpTruck

Ahh, what a lovely day! I don't even care that the school bus was 15 minutes late this morning. I don't! And why is that, you ask? Well, because the Pats won, they have nothing more to prove to anyone. Man, do these guys get no respect or what? Even as they are pulling off an unbelievable third win in four years, even as our coach breaks the record for winning the most games in the post-season, the analysts are talking about Terrell Owens, etc.

Whatever. You can try to dismiss this team all you want, but I think we proved our point.

Oh, and besides, we're supposed to get some record-breaking warmth today, and 55 degrees in February is cause for major celebration, regardless of a Superbowl win.

Before I forget, here's picture I took with my phone at Junior's ski lesson. He moved up to the next level, and all the kids ended up skiing for an extra hour after their hour lesson was over. He LOVED it. And my nephew looks like an old pro. After 5 total lessons, I'd say he's almost ready for the big mountain. Holy cow, that kid is good. It almost made me want to take lessons. Almost. I think if I was going to do it, I'd have to take the morning off from work and do it when nobody else was around. Because yes, I'm that embarrassed. But we stood there for 2 hours and my feet started to freeze and I started to think about how much time I'm going to end up at a mountain trying to keep amused while he's skiing. I mean, he's only 7 - I can't just leave him there.
