Waitin' All Week for Sunday Night
Sep. 30th, 2007 08:26 pmI'm just sitting here watching the Giants-Eagles game. Iiiiii... guess I'm cheering for the Giants. Yeah, Eli Manning beats the way-over-hyped-and-full-of-himself Donovan McNabb any day (besides, I'm playing my cousin in Fantasy Football this week and he has McNabb at quarterback. I'm not terribly worried, though. I've got Eli's older brother Peyton on my fantasy team and he had a great game today (pauses for a gloating moment - I've got Peyton Manning on my Fantasy team - am I a lucky little twerp or what?). Now I'm praying that Joseph Addai will be okay to play next week - I wasn't supposed to have to play the running back shuffle until week 6 when the Colts have their bye week. Ugh).
I can't help but feel sorry for the Chicago Bears - they had Rex Grossman and he sucked, so they started Brian Griese instead, but he sucked too. It's too bad - maybe they could coax Dan Marino or Steve Young out of retirement (yeah, neither of them played for the Bears, but they're desperate). But Brett Favre is doing wonderfully, what with now holding the record for career passing touchdowns. I've liked him for a long time. It's kind of nice to have a player that I cheered for when I was in the third grade still playing and doing well (and I don't mean that to be sarcastic - I'm being sincere). Green Bay being 4-0 and all - that makes me happy. But whut the -- the Lions are 3-1?! Of all the random crap to come out of Detroit... Not that I'm not pleased, just surprised.
(Somebody just fumbled the ball and in the ensuing scramble, the ball "squirted" out. I love when the ball "squirts" out. Anyway, random thought).
JK Rowling updated her website today and since it's a new month, there's a new Wizard of the Month. It's Harry Potter, the Boy Who Lived himself, which is cool. Except the picture of him is kinda creepy. I can't look at it very long without getting the jibbilies.
Good news! I got a call on Friday from the temp agency I signed up with and they got me a position starting tomorrow. I'm going to be a receptionist for a property management company. According to my job-agent-lady-person (they have a fancy name, but I can't remember what it is), they said that it could be kinda slow, so I could bring a book to read while I was there. I'm not sure how many days I'll be there (it is a temp position, after all). It could be a week or a month or however long they want me to hang around there, but it's good that I'm not going to just be hanging around here all day.
(Geez, someone else just got hurt. You'd think football was a rough game or something...)
And after being in the ward for three months, I finally have a Visiting Teaching partner, which I'm excited about, especially after the General Relief Society meeting last night (I always marvel that the guys get a full two hours of their general meeting twice a year, but we women can get by with a mere hour and a half once a year. That's 'cuz we're wonderful ^_^). They talked a lot about being good Visiting Teachers and some other things that I need to work on. I have no excuse, other than I've been lazy, which really isn't an excuse.
(McNabb just got sacked for the ninth time. That pretty much speaks for itself.)
