The best Sunday in the World!

It happened at our house yesterday! The best Sunday in the World, EVER! Because yesterday was a fun-filled TV event day! The Daytona 500 AND the NBA Allstar game -- on the very same day, can you believe it? We skipped CHOIR practice to get home in time to see most of the Daytona -- only missed about 15 laps at the beginning and about 38 (as I recall, and I admit its all a blur--but then, aren't they all? Cars going 200 mph are pretty much a blur) at the end when the race was called because of rain (read H-U-R-R-I-C-A-N-E)! Boy, now there's a sentence or lack thereof that both my dad and my sophomore English teacher Miss Mason would give me about a D- on! My husband was in the dumps because he thought for sure number 24 (Jeff Gordon) was going to win! I don't remember who won -- but I know for sure it wasn't Jeff! Jeff is his hero. He even has a genuine leather Jeff Gordon jacket, size XXX! He bought it on e-Bay for a couple hundred bucks which is absolutely astonishing! The only other thing he's ever spent $200 on at one time is Diet Coke!

The day could have been expected to be a total loss after Jeff's loss -- but no! Time for the Allstar game. Now there's a dumb game! It's all about who's the cutest, trickiest, sweatiest guy in the NBA -- East or West! Turns out their were TWO cutest, trickiest, sweatiest guys in the NBA : Coby and Shaquille, oh boy! They were named co-MVP's, for heaven's sake, and good grief as well! They're both dumb and ugly and they hate each other besides! They probably both took a bribe to stand next to each other when the awards were made! Gag. Who won that game? I'm thinkin it was the West -- by a grundle of points. Well, actually, both teams made a grundle of points. I think the score was something like 853 to 710 or so. Nobody ever heard of defense in the NBA All star game! Anyway -- it's over and I'm glad, and my husband had a happy, happy day being a sportophile! Now, that's pretty silly!
