Let the countdown begin...

It's midnight Sunday evening...

That means:
Less than 96 hours until Turkey Day!!
Less than 72 hours until the next Caps home game (v. ATL...hanging with the A-T-L, baby!)
Less than 15 hours until yummy lunch at Charlie Palmer's overlooking the Capital building...

And the most anticipated countdown in the history of the world:
Less than 48 hours until THE date that will define the relationship, guide the ship (hopefully in the right direction) and earn me back my "man card". I believe that Al Michaels and John Madden are scheduled to provide coverage of this truly historic event!

Sports news:
Soriano gets paid (Cha-ching!) and becomes a lovable loser with the Cubs...
Donovan has a boo-boo on his knee and will miss the rest of the season for the Eagles...
Maryland Potatoes lose again despite having J.C. as the starter!
The Seahawks lost but will finally have both Shaun and Matt back (and are still in first place!)
Caps lose again in OT in Beantown but are still averaging 1.1 points per game which will put them just outside of the playoffs this year. If they can perform a little better in the shootout and get a lucky bounce or two in OT, I think that they will be participating in some bonus hockey this year.

Both look good in a tuxedo but Happy Feet nudges out Casino Royale at the box office this weekend. I'm excited to see both of these movies as well as Borat over the next week.

Random thought: If Flower Girl keeps using me for different favors, is it okay for me to use her back for free stuff and tickets? If both parties use each other and know that they are doing it, does it make it okay?

Thanks...

Hopefully I can retain the man card for a little while longer. Otherwise, I'll be forced to leave the DC area and move to an island far, far away!

Thanks again for the support.

It seems you lose that man card gets revoked when you get married. ;-(
