~ Contrary to my original pics for this week's wild card rounds (Kansas City - they were undefeated through much of the season, Green Bay - Love Aaron Rogers!, and Cincinnati - their coach used to work for the Ravens), I'm happy with 2 of the teams losing. I still think KC blew the shot that they truly deserved (also, after having the best record all season, I still don't understand how they fell in the wild card around to begin with!). But as much as I love Green Bay, now that the Niners won, John has his shot to win the big game just like his brother did, which I'm sure will make Sunday dinners at the Harbaugh's a bit easier. And with Cincy losing, the Chargers, who will eternally be on my good side seeing as their win last week kicked the Steelers out of playoff contention, get a chance to shine. If the Ravens weren't going to the Super Bowl, I suppose the best teams may get the chance - as long as it's not Denver or New England!
~ I may need a few more re-watches of The Sign of Three episode of Sherlock to really appreciate the laugh a minute jokes. It was definitely different, and I wasn't sure how I felt at first but somewhere around the time John and Sherlock got wasted at John's Stag do, I was hooked. I'm not sure what the writers were on but you could tell they and the actors were having a blast. Even after all that, they managed to throw in a bit or two that made me a bit weepy. Everything a good episode of television should be and more!
~ I really have absolutely no idea how I'm going to handle going into work tomorrow morning. I've been on and off, away for the last 2 weeks. Why does vacation seemingly take so long to get here but is over in a blink of an eye? A full 5 days of work - dreadful!
~ I know it's winter in Maryland, and everything should be expected but after a weekend (and more is expected this week) of sub-zero temperatures (ok not today but the last 2 days have been ridiculous!), I'm ready to pack it in and move to the tropics! Having to scrape ice and snow off of my car in shifts because I can't feel my fingers through my gloves is not my idea of a good time!
~ "Remembrance of Things Paris - 60 years of Writing from Gourmet" is on the reading list for this week. Loving it so far! I may not have fallen head over heals for Paris as I thought I would, but reading about it still gets me starry-eyed.
