super bowl recap

well, the party turned out to be a delight. i was so exhausted by the time it actually started that i was just excited to be able to sit and relax a little. too much cleaning and cooking. i really like to host, but man it's a lot of work. the food was yummy and i think everyone had a nice time. i should have taken more pictures. i did take this one of josh before it started:


he was holding up the foam finger and a mini football he got at his most recent work meeting. he's clearly excited. no, our cable box isn't normally on a T.V. tray in front of the fire place. josh went to great lengths moving around the furniture to maximize seating and T.V. viewing. here's a better angle: 


we brought in the love seat from josh's office and put it where the T.V. normally is, and then moved the T.V. over to block the hideous apartment blinds and the sliding door/balcony. josh likes the new arrangement quite a bit and wants to leave it this way. i'm not so sure. of course we can get a longer cable cord, but do i want to permanently block a sliding door/balcony? i don't know. we do have another balcony off the back through josh's office, but still. i like to open the door and let the light/fresh air in when i can. hmm... i think we're going to try it out for a few days. 

well today i'm feeling completely exhausted. of course i had to work at 5 this morning, so i only got a few hours of sleep. i'm also feeling quite irritated: about the day after the super bowl not being a holiday, about people not tipping this morning, about the ridiculously thick layer of wall paint covering our entire apartment (it seriously makes the doors stick and our food stick to our cabinet shelves, about not losing as much weight as i wanted to this week... woe is me. i know i'm ridiculous. i need a nap.

  1. I like the move of the furniture, you do have more seating. Sounds like your party was a success with great food.
