Not My Weekend for Football
Nov. 21st, 2004 11:18 pmFirst, Michigan lost to Ohio State. But we're still going to be playing in the Rose Bowl, courtesy of Iowa's Hawkeyes. (Thanks for beating Bucky and the crew, Iowa!) However, OSU may be coming to San Antonio for the Alamo Bowl.
Then, Detroit Lions go from WINNING the game 17-7 to screwing up. Start with a roar, end with a kittenish mew. Although I was amused by the Minnesota announcer referring to the Lions as the "Motor City Kitties". Oh well. Thanksgiving is coming... and we're playing the Colts? What sadistic SOB in scheduling decided that? Why aren't we playing one of our traditional rivals? And who decided the Cowboys could play the Bears? WTF, over? I'm still hopeful, and still tuning in, but I think it might possibly take an Act of God to prevail on Thursday.
In non-football news, my fic writing is stalled out. My creativity is taking an ADD break, apparently. Cleaning out my hard drive and trying to get the brain to settle down. Did some real house cleaning this afternoon, as part of the pre-PCS consolidation. The living room now looks like a disaster, as it's littered with stuff that needs to be Put Away.
Work calls tomorrow and I don't want to go....
