Why do I always give myself false hope? The loss to Indy today crushed all dreams of ever making the playoffs. We just started out flat in the second half. Period. It seems like we can never put two consecutive halves of good play together. Since I’ve given up all hopes of a playoff berth, everything from now on is meaningless… everything. Therefore I’m skipping the usual gameballs and goats for the game and giving a whopping goat to the whole season. 
This weekend just seemed to fly by… after Friday night, that is. Longest shopping trip ever. It wouldn’t have been so bad if we didn’t look at furniture for 3 hours while I starved. (I still love you though, mom!) I just wish I could have got some of my shopping done if I’m going to go hungry, you know? I got plenty of sleep, which is always good for helping to catch up from the rest of the week (note the time this is posted!).
Hmm, what to say about the Inkrott xmas… I think it could be summed up in two words: “Jockstrap Barney”. I guess I should explain in more detail. We had a White Elephant exchange this year, which involves everyone bringing a crap-tacular gift, picking a number, and picking a gift out of the pile collected from everyone or stealing a gift from someone (and that person then gets to pick a new one out of the pile or steal something that hasn’t been stolen in that round). Among the many “unique” gifts were some nice ones that didn’t quite belong. We’ll have that fixed next year hopefully. Between that, the food, and some fiercely competitive cards (damn you, Mitch! I’ll get you next time!!), it was an exhausting day. Speaking of which, I’m getting sleepy.
