Congrats on the 99, toml.
Glee, so very happy for you...reading that was a great way start to my day.
Well, Cour, I must break your rule and share my dream from two days ago. Seems I ran into Barack and Michelle at a hotel pool. Turns out that we knew each other and Barack gave me back an extra key that he had to my house that I had given him, saying that the lock had probably changed over the past 8 years. Haha, feel free to analyze that...kinda flipped me out...no therapy appointment planned for months...my therapist lives up north.
Today my mind is occupied with thoughts of football. My beloved Pittsburgh Steelers play a game this evening for the right to play in the Super Bowl. Been a fan and season ticket holder for decades. My Dad started taking me to games in 1959.
Anyway, anxiety and excitement is very high. In fact, no different from the feelings I had as a player for a big games all my life. Sports has always been my one, and most important escape from life...yet, for some crazy reason, it rarely involved alcohol. I've always taken sports seriously.
If they win, there is a lottery tomorrow among Steeler season ticket holders for Super Bowl tickets. It's about a 10% chance. If I hit, I'm planning to take my youngest daughter to Houston for the game in two weeks. Fingers crossed.
Bim, to be honest here...I never served my knuckle shavings to another...only to myself....hmmm, I think?
What's shaken' with everyone else today?
Oh, no-no-no on the drinking front.

Carlos, I am sorry to hear you are a stealers' fan! You can see where I am from! But I love you anyway man! My two favorite teams are the Colts and whoever is playing patriots. Hope I didn't step on too many toes here! GO STEALERS!!!

tom, you won't offend this group - we just aren't that chatty today. It's Sunday.
I live in Seahawk country and it is pretty crazy out here when they are in the hunt. Every other car has "12" flags. You go to the store and half the people are wearing team stuff.

Hmmm bim seems to be talking about birds (sea hawks) but then she goes on about "12." And tom says "you can see where I am from" like it has a special significance. My mom was from Indianapolis, is that it? Where's my cracker jack decoder? 
Bad morning, worry, email with a "major revision needed" aka "we hate you." Schedule has gone to hell.
Not going to drink but I might hide under the blankets!

(And, in no way/shape or form, do we hate you; we think that you are fabulous)
