Sunday : 02 October 05
Today was a rather lazy day… which was just perfect for a weekend.

I slept in this morning. Way in. 11:00 in. And then I just laid in bed for another… thirty or forty minutes. Yeah, when I said “lazy,” I wasn’t kidding. I got up and came down to the HCC to watch some of the early games. They weren’t bad, but they weren’t what I was looking for. I lost interest and started to do some light cleaning. (Okay, so I wasn’t completely lazy…) A short while later, came over – we were going to watch the Ravens game together. (More football coverage to follow.) After the game, we had dinner at Mimi’s Cafe. It was a good meal, even though our waiter apparently did not hear me order an entree. Yeah.. all I wanted was a small salad. *blink blink* When he came around to see if we “had saved some room for dessert,” I told him that I was still awaiting my entree. He looked stunned. But, he hurried off to get the order in. I didn’t get upset; this kind of thing happens.

After dinner, I came back home and watched the late game while I tried to reduce some of the paper waste (old papers and magazines) from my office. After that, I watched Double Jeopardy with and Heather. It wasn’t a bad movie, despite a couple of plot holes.

Football

New York Jets at Baltimore
3 – 13
The Ravens looked like an honest-to-goodness NFL football team this week. The offense, led by Anthony Wright, moved the ball. The defense, led by Ray Lewis, held their ground against the Jets’ offense. And Matt Stover proved that he is still capable of putting the ball between the uprights.
vs.
Sorry, , but I still can’t get behind this win for the Bengals. According to every sportscaster that I’ve heard this evening, the refs botched a call – a reviewed call, at that – that would have actually given the Texans a chance to tie, if not win, the game.
vs.
Sweet Mother Mary… What got into the Bolts?! They went into Foxboro and whooped up on the Pats. 41 – 17. Damn, Gina!
vs.
Donovan McNabb and the boys from the City of Brotherly Love came back from a 13 – 24 halftime deficit to beat the Chiefs – who have now lost back-to-back games at home – by a score of 37 – 31.
vs.
What has become of the Niners?! They lost to… the Cards? The CARDS!? 14 – 31?!? I think that has to be another sign of the coming apocalypse.

Namaste.
