    First of all, welcome, welcome!!! I am so happy to have you as a follower on my blog.

    I loved your 55 here - very cute. I'm inclined to agree with you about men being able to handle only one channel at a time. :)

    Love you,
    PG

    aWWWW, after reading this, I really really miss my home state...Cali...north or south, no matter...Cali is Cali...football? sorry, gets lost on me LOL..but I do know of what you speak...so, thanks! LOL
  • ciaraj · 2 months ago
    haha @ cali is cali...not to me. i'm a big time southern cali girl. so cal is relaxed, nor cal a lil more uptight but definitely artsy (well, at least san francisco is better...everyone around here where i live are too conservative for me lol)

    hey, not everyone likes football and that's o.k.! i like it, but if it were to disappear today, i wouldn't be crying over it like a lot of people would lol thx for stopping by :0)

    I will be the first to admit, I have been a version of the similar talked about DB that you described. When something doesn't go how it was planned, I have been know to be a little on the inflexible side in relaxing and going with the flow. Of course, I have excuses and reasons why the plans can't be altered, but that's all they are is excuses. I'm working on it. As for midwesterners, we do wear our colors- that's for sure. Some sports events are almost like a holiday. The family meets in front of the game on TV and together it becomes a family event. I think that this is ok as long as your life doesn't revolve completely around it, making sure to have a variety of family events that don't revolve around the TV.-Jason
  • ciaraj · 2 months ago
    i agree that it's ok to make sports a family event as long as ya don't plan your life around it. speaking of which...just saw a 'true life' episode on mtv. i'm recording it. guess what it's called? 'i'm a sport fanatic' lol

    btw i guess i could say that my hubs doesn't plan his whole life around it cos he has his kid and work. if he's not talking about his son playing sports, then it's about work, if not work, then it's just about his kid in general. i tune out a lot of crap lmao

    hi, ate ciara! maybe you'd want to meet my bf. he really stops and makes time to listen to any1 even if he's in the middle of something. haha.

    well written, as always! :D

    happy weekend!
  • ciaraj · 2 months ago
    i have a feeling that you have a special young man, acey :0)

    I also had a husband like that ---one of many reasons he is my EX. My current husband would rather watch an old movie or a documentary. I don't remember his watching an entire football game, not even the Super Bowl when the home team won, in 25 years of marriage. He cooks dinner, too.

    No, I will not trade him for anyone's football-loving hunk.

    Find my Flash 55 for this week HERE.
  • ciaraj · 2 months ago
    ok, documentaries my current hubs can handle. an old movie not so much haha ooo does your current hubs watch indie or foreign films? current hubs says he can't watch foreign films cos he can't read and watch at same time hahaha guess he's not good at multitasking, eh? dang...he cooks dinner, too? something is not right here lol ;0)
  • weaselmomma · 2 months ago
    Sounds like it's going to be a long season!
  • ciaraj · 2 months ago
    only a handful more games, but i do feel like it's gonna be a long one.
  • PJ Mullen · 2 months ago
    Hey now! I multitask just fine during football games, I even make fun food for everyone, including my friend's five year old daughter who is my football buddy. She's as crazy about football as we are. Now my wife has learned to not discuss anything important during the games, but I totally welcome her to ask question about why something is good or bad and like explaining it to her. The games are my weekly escape from all that I do, she's just happy I don't like baseball or basketball because the seasons are much longer and the games are on all the time.
  • ciaraj · 2 months ago
    hmmm what kind of foods? the quick and easy straight out of the package kind? ;0) gotta get bk to the football, right? lol i understand that it's an escape. i have this feeling that you don't go overboard on sports. btw i enjoy baseball, but if i miss a game, i'm fine.
  • PJ Mullen · 2 months ago
    Come on now, you know me better than that, I never take the easy way out when it comes to food. I make pizza from scratch! Besides, that's why we have DVRs, you can just pause the game :)
  • ciaraj · 2 months ago
    what the hell was our world like before dvrs?? oh yeah, vcrs...not good lol
  • R_Mattocks · 2 months ago
    I would like to go to Dodger Stadium in order to see that relaxed feeling. It's kind of the same at Minute Made Park, except that we're so used to losing everyone shuffles out in an orderly fashion with our heads down.
  • ciaraj · 2 months ago
    i think that anyone who has ever been to dodger stadium has loved it unless you are a fan of their rivals lol petco park in san diego is nice, too. located downtown san diego. i've seen the padres play at their old stadium (as a youngster) and the new one (bout 2 yrs ago). btw i like the padres as well so i know that feeling :0/ lol
  • otter321 · 2 months ago
    Your intro sounds just like our house. I hear nothing over sports. I can't multitask and I can't remember anything. My wife remembers all. It must be scientific. That will be my excuse.
