Meh, okay, just last night's game. Wow, what a snooze-fest. It was 10-10 at the half, then the Colts blew the Saints out the RCA Dome 41-10. It was kind of sad, but puzzling, I mean, is Indianapolis' defense that good or are the Saints last year's one hit wonder and go back to the bottom of the NFC South? I mean, the Colts held last year's highest scoring offense to 3 points (got the touchdown on a fumble recovery), but the Saints are in the NFC. Everyone is still kind of with them saying they'll beat up on their lesser opponents in their conference and win it. As for the Colts, the "D" showed up, but what will happen against a good AFC team, like San Diego, or something? We'll have to wait and see. Of course, whenever they play New England, I hope the score is 70-3. That would make me so freaking happy.
Now I am very excited for this weekend. College football all day Saturday, the Chevy Rock and Roll 400 Saturday night at Richmond (last race before the Chase, Tony is locked in at 2nd place, but will drop to 3rd behind Jimmie Johnson and Jeff Gordon, more on NASCAR later), and the other NFL teams play all day Sunday and finish up with a Monday Night double-header. Oh, this is best weekend ever! Let's just hope the Steelers have a great game against the Browns. I don't want to overlook them, but I want to win so bad, everyone is saying how last year was the real Steelers team, even though Ben's face getting up close and personal with a Chrysler, having an emergency appendectomy, then suffering a second concussion at the hands of the sucky Falcons (who I think will rally around each other and steal a Wild Card spot, I said it first), yet missed all of ONE game last season. Nobody ever talks about how tough he is, just how he led the league in interceptions last season.
OMG, okay, the big NASCAR news is that Joe Gibbs Racing is moving from Chevrolet as a manufacturer to Toyota! At first I was unhappy with that news, but from the business side of things, it makes sense. Hendrick would always be number 1, Childress 2, then JGR, even though Tony has won two championships and is in a nice position to pick up a third. Oh, I hope so, if Jimmie Johnson repeats, that means the Colts are going to be back-to-back Super Bowl winners. I'd love for the Steelers to go to the Super Bowl and win with a rookie head coach, but from what everyone else is saying about us, I'd settle for just reaching the playoffs, if not winning the division. Any road, as Elliot said yesterday, "love the sinner (Tony Stewart), hate the sin (Toyota)."
I'm supposed to go out with Marcus (he finally remembered my birthday, Lisa called 4 days later, but I didn't pick up; I'm terrible) on Tuesday or Thursday next week, we haven't settled on a day yet. He's supposed to be leaving for Philadelphia like in November, so it will probably be the last time I hang out with him in a long time, if ever. While we're out, I need to get another antenna cord for my mobile along for a memory stick, then if that's not too much, I want to see if I can find The Music Man on DVD, if not then I want Funny Face. I'll miss Marcus, because he didn't bug me (TOO much).
Ashley has sent out another mass e-mail saying that she wasn't coming home soon. She sent one August 20 saying that she wasn't leaving the military to come home and all her doctors are in England and she wouldn't be able to find a place to live, then she sent one yesterday saying that she just wasn't coming home because all the free (or cheap) stuff the military can provide for her like daycare, insurance, housing, mostly, she couldn't get transferred here. I totally accept the last reason, but that's just too much information. All she had to say was that she wasn't coming home because she couldn't get a transfer, we, at least I didn't need to know the rest. She said that she was coming home in December, don't know how much effort I'll put in to seeing her, that will be right in the middle of Christmas shopping and baking and everything else, I'm sure. She also said that she'll have a decent place soon and that if you (all the people she sent the letter to) find yourself in her neck of the woods, you have a place to stay. Tch, not with a baby in the house. I know I shouldn't be like this, but I can't run with people with kids at this moment. I think I'm mostly upset because of all the fun we had back in March, and we most likely can't do that again. Yeah, I have to go out and get some new friends.
I might be kind of cute when I find my new friends, I was looking back in the archives and I'm shocked to see that I didn't say back in May that we got a treadmill. I use it at least 3-4 days a week. I know, I could do better, but some days I just have so much to do and I get a little lazy. Plus, I don't like people to be home and watch me walk on it, I don't know I'm weird like that. I don't know how much weight I've lost, but I know I've lost some. Like last month, I tried on these old jeans and I didn't have to suck in my gut. In fact, they were LOOSE around the waist. I'm built funny and all of my fat goes to my abdominal area, like my jeans will be loose in the butt area (i.e. I'm fat, but have a flat ass), but tight around the stomach. Just last week I've increased my time on it from 1 mile to 1 1/2 miles. The only bad thing is that it is a used treadmill and the motor can overheat, so when I do my mile-and-a-half, I have to do it in two goes, like 3 laps the first time, 3 laps the second time. Sometimes I'll do a full mile, then come back and do the last two laps later, which is what I did today. I tested it to see how far it would let me go before it stopped, and it was just shy of 5 laps, like 4.8 laps or something. I wouldn't mind doing it all in one go, but then again, a break is nice. I was discouraged at the beginning a bit because I always tried to walk at the end of Elliot in the Morning, like listen to "Diane's Dirt" and walk, but I couldn't do it, sometimes I would fall back asleep and I just wouldn't walk for some reason. Then I realized that I had ALL day, and it was just as good to walk at like 3:00 as it is at 10:00. I don't need to be on a tight schedule, just find the time to walk. I actually enjoy walking, I turn on the stereo/TV and just go for it.
Well, that's enough for me this time, I'm getting sleepy (antihistamines, so good), but of course I have to post a pic of Ben.

His eyes are so gorgeous in this photo. Oh, and I'm also crushing on Around the Horn host and Pardon the Interruption ombudsman Tony Reali (this is getting sad, I know). I have been for a few weeks, I was just in denial. We'll see how I feel about him by the next entry, but this should be an interesting season for me and Ben, but I still love him.
Here we go Steelers, here we go! Go Steelers, beat those Brownies!I'm phasing.
