another fun day

we went to the ucf football game today and watched them win big... it is a great change to have a local team in the bcs rankings and being at a game where the local team easily dominated... the score, 62-17, makes the game seem a lot closer than it really was... the first score they game up, a field goal, came after one busted 57 yard run... that was most of the running yards the other team, uconn, got (about 78 yards total and just 70 yards passing)... the second score came on a 9 yard run after the referees gave uconn 40 yards on penalties, all of which were very questionable if not outright referee errors... halftime was ucf 45, uconn 10... the dominance was so secure that ucf put in their second string team with 10 minutes to go in the third quarter and they scored another 17 points while giving up a touchdown after blowing one more play and allowing a 40+ yard touchdown pass... so most of the uconn yards came on two plays and some junk yardage in the fourth quarter with ucf had their third and fourth stringers in...

we had fun with friends tailgating before the game and jackson and i went to dinner at one of the chinese buffets after the game... the buffet was her idea, which is rare so it was a great surprise... she's out at a friend's party with sanford tonight, which has a dual edge as she still has not accepted that their relationship is over (we're working on that) and might be setting herself up for more hard falls but she is a big girl and makes her own choices... hoping for the best and acceptance and healing and moving on as soon as possible, alas, relationships can be so challenging when they do not work out...

manwhile, i stayed home to rest as i have not slept past 7am (and woke earlier most days) in three weeks what with the new job (which is going great and i ought to catch up on it but not tonight) and busy early weekend activities... like last week, we have 9am games tomorrow and this week it's a double header... i napped a bit when we got home from dinner, but happiness was being very needy and woke me a few times and i snacked and watched college football and the world series...

hopefully jackson will get home soon so she can play in the morning with some energy and without hurting herself (especially her knees which need rest and sleep)... i ought to head to bed now myself... so that's some catch up... hope you are finding ways to make your life fun too... please? :)

nite nite :)
