Texas Thunder Thighs


I'm sitting here all fat and sassy in my recliner watching the Sunday Night Football game, feeling somewhat nostalgic and contented. You see, I have played in the same fantasy football league since 1993, and a few moments ago, my running back scored the winning touchdown for my fantasy team in the semifinals, making next week my first ever trip to the highly coveted Fantasy Bowl. I have made the playoffs a few times in my 13 years, but never the Fantasy Bowl. Ahhh...what a nice feeling! I'd love to bring home the trophy next week!!

It's been quite awhile since I've posted on here. I don't even keep up with everyone else's blog anymore. Sorry guys! I want to get back to focusing on the game, so I'll make this quick and random -

I downloaded the full Diana Krall "Christmas Songs" CD from iTunes and I love it! If you enjoy jazz, this is a must have CD! She's a great singer and piano player and it's fun to hear her "skat".

Our 10th year wedding anniversary is next March. Jenn will still be nursing, so we won't take a big trip or anything then, but we're thinking about maybe going to New York next Octoberish. The perfect trip would be to enjoy New York, maybe take a side trip to Niagara Falls one day and then fly to Green Bay Sunday morning in time for a Green Bay home game at Lambeau Field to see Brett Favre in person, then fly home Sunday night. It is still uncertain as to whether Brett Favre will retire or not this year. I sure hope not....

We watched Love Actually again last night - and I'm comfortable enough with my masculinity to admit that I love that movie without any regard to what others may think. HA! Especially the writer and the girl from Portugal - that is awesome! Hugh Grant rocks too!

I'd like to watch more Christmas movies this week. All I've seen so far is Polar Express, which I highly recommend. I like Santa Claus 2, National Lampoon's Christmas, and of course Charlie Brown's Christmas. What are some of YOUR favorite Christmas movies?
