I finally collapsed into bed last night (this morning) at 2:00AM...so I am definitely sleeping in.
I finally wander downstairs at around 10:00AM for coffee...and another great "Molly breakfast". Everybody's moving kind of slow this morning...so...it's definitely time for Bloody Marys! And...with that bit of "the hair of the dog"...we're ready for football. The first game is on at 11:00AM...the Outback Bowl being played right here in Tampa...Northwestern v. Auburn. Soon, Penn State is playing LSU and Florida State is up against West Virginia. It's a thirteen-hour "smorgasbord" of football.
Northwestern comes up short, Penn State rolls, Bobby Bowden and FSU pull out a win. Now, it's 4:30PM and time for the Rose Bowl...the dreaded Ohio State Buckeyes against the Ducks of Oregon. Ed and Molly are big Ducks fans and I'm rooting for anyone to beat OSU, so we're all on the same side. Alas, the Ducks are found wanting...and OSU wins...disappointing.
The last game is the Sugar Bowl...Florida versus Cincinnati. This is Florida country, so everyone is rooting for the Gators. I would like Cincinnati to at least make a game of it, but Florida blows them out.
I barely make it to the end of the third quarter...Molly's already in bed and Ed is snoozing on the couch. A relaxing day, but I'm still beat from the day before. Sleep comes quickly and is most welcome tonight.
