Couch Time

B and I haven't really left the couch at all in the last day. B is sick with some form of cold/flu and I'm helping him recover by not moving much either. I figure, why taunt someone who can't move... that's just cruel. He's not the only one - I feel like everyone I know is sick right now. Must be all of the holiday recovery. Thankfully water, vitamins, and a generally healthy attitude have given me a pretty good immune system in the last few years, so I'm crossing my fingers that it holds out.

About all we've accomplished today is making the coffee and redoing the header to the blog. But since we don't have Adobe, we were working in Microsoft Paint and I'm pretty sure it took about 2 1/2 hours. Too bad I don't have the computer programs and talent of my future sister-in-law.

Our other bit of couch time, which I can barely speak about because it's just so upsetting, is the so close loss of the Giants to the undefeated Patriots last night. Before last night's game, the Patriots were 15-0, and if they won this game they would break the previous record held by the Dolphins from back in 1972. Because it was such a big game, it was broadcast on 3 different stations, and the tickets were going for as high as $1600.

Since the Giants haven't exactly been great this year and our beloved Eli has yet to show the talent of his older brother, no one had any expectations for the game, but boy we're we wrong!! Eli somehow cosmically channeled the talent of Peyton and kicked some serious a$$ last night, it was beautiful! But unfortunately it wasn't quite enough and we lost by three. So devastating, but I'm glad to know the talent is hiding in there somewhere.

Have a good week... drink lots of water and take lots of vitamins. If you're sick it'll cure you faster and if you're not, it might prevent it.
