I know, I know...
Feb. 3rd, 2002 10:10 pmI broke my promise.
But I'm glad I did, as for once it was an interesting game. And the Patriots winning makes me feel better about the Steelers losing.
Plus, who am I to stand in the way of the almighty chip-and-dip. Something about late January and junk food in me. When I was growing up -- sometimes in those days the Steelers would be in the Super Bowl, and they would win, too -- my mom would make these bigass corned beef sandwiches for the game, or we would get pizza from La Pizzeria up the street, which to me is still the yardstick against which all pizza must be judged.
Yes, my mom is the football fan in our family. My father kind of comes in, laughs at it all, and leaves. But for some reason my mother has always been a big Steelers fan ever since they moved to Pittsburgh. Go figure.
I hear fireworks going off. Idly wondering if there'll be a riot tonight. Now, that would be interesting.
Anyway, in less trivial news, we did nothing today. Well, we did go on a drive in search of a diner in the South End, just to see where it was. Found a Chinese supermarket that was pretty nifty. "You see? That's something we couldn't do in Baltimore," I tell Mrs. S. She still does not like it here.
