Sarah's giving me a hard time about not posting frequently enough. So tonight you get a truly thrilling post.

So it's superbowl sunday. My brothers have always looked forward to it like girls look forward to the prom. I get the impression this is pretty common among boys.

One of the boys at church tried to make conversation with me (poor boy) and the following interchange ensued.

boy: So, who are you rooting for in the Super Bowl?
me: Uh..... the underdogs
boy: (calling my bluff) And who would that be?
me: Uh.... the rams?
boy: (laughing) I don't think so.
me: Ok, then the other guys.
boy: (laughing) And the name of that team would be what?
me: Um.... the Patriots?
boy: And where would they be from?
me: New England? (good thing he didn't ask me that one about the rams)
boy: (laughing) Yeah. I guess you didn't check the odds in Vegas before you came to church today?
me: Right, my bookie doesn't work on Sunday.

So now I'm sitting here watching the superbowl and thinking maybe I really should have bet on this game. The thing is - I just always root for the underdogs. That way I don't have to keep track or follow a particular team.
