I don't get it. Why they get so passionate about it.
Sunday I went shopping with Angie and we left the boys at home to watch football. When we got back the Giants game was on. C had on his jersey, Jin had on his. I actually hate being around the guys when the team is doing bad. I feel like they're about to get violent or throw something. They start cursing and jumping up and down. One minute they're sitting and they both slowly start to get up off the couch and they're like "YesyesyesyesYESYESYES...NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" And then I'll hear Angie crack up and I feel like mumbling "shutupthey'regonnakillyouandthenkillmeandthebaby." After that there's a lot of your ususal 'we're being defeated' body language. The ever so popular defeated face-in-the-hands move and also the pacing-back-and-forth move and my favorite, putting-on-my-jacket-to-go-out-to-the-balcony-even-though-I-just-smoked-5-minutes-ago move. I'm just thinking as I'm sitting calmly next to C, flipping through a Bazaar magazine 'Is he going to hit me? Omigod he's going to hit me.' JIn, at one point, even said "Eli made me so proud today." And he meant it. The way he said it is how a father would have said it. Hahahaha....
Angie at one point was trying to explain it to me and I told her not to bother. Honestly I just don't care. I have my hobbies and interests and he has his. The ONLY, and I mean ONLY reason I do watch football is to learn the referee moves. I know holding, pass interference, face mask, and unnecessary roughness. I forget sometimes and C quizzes me from time to time. Don't ask me why. It just amuses me. One day I shall learn them all!
But seriously, congrats to the Giants. When C's happy, I'm happy.
Totally unrelated to football, I'm sure we're not the only couple that makes stupid bets but we always make stupid bets and then one of us runs over to the computer to google the answer that will determine who won. Last month C and I made a bet but neither one of us can remember what it was. I guess it's not important cause I WON anyways. I got an extra fifty bucks in my January allowance. HoLLA! This past weekend he was trying to throw his boxers into the hamper from across the room and missed. I grabbed them and stood by where he was standing and he said "hun, if you make this I'll give you 10 bucks!" FINE BY ME SUCKA! I made it in and he started yelling at me!
C: YOU'RE NOT SUPPOSED TO BANK IT YOU F'UCKIN CHEATER!
Me: WHAT? Says who?!
C: Everyone knows you're not supposed to bank it you cheater!
Me: What?! You didn't say I couldn't bank it in you sore loser! You said if I "made it in".
C: (taking out his wallet) Ok fine but I'm only giving you 5 you cheater.
Me: FINE BY ME. I still win.
Today we met a bet on Heath Ledger. He was saying that he used to be married to Michelle Williams and I said that they used to be engaged but called it off. I knew I won. We bet $10. He said he'd google it and get back to me. I sent him a lovely email.
Subject: Heath Ledger was married....I'm sorry, when?
I can't hear you? Can you speak louder?
I won't make you write me a check for 10 bucks. You can just give me cash money dawg.
For me, life is good.
For him, it can't be too good when you marry a wise-ass.
