Viva Los Seahawks!!!
So I guess the Seahawks are actually going to the Super Bowl. That’s some crazy sh*t, man. It just doesn't compute. Between all the information I’ve been ingesting for work and challenges fixing on our fixer-uper home my mind is having a very hard time wrapping itself around the concept. Of course I could have used the brain cells destroyed by the celebratory Irish Car Bombs in processing the euphoria. The best part, so far, about the Sea-chickens accomplishments is that traffic was super-light (for Seattle) coming home tonight – I guess I wasn’t the only one who woke up with a headache this morning.
One bad thing about the Quest Field Conquest is that it exposed more evidence proving controllers/accountants are strange people. Our controller strolled in this morning and said she was disappointed in the Hawks’ win; it wasn’t competitive enough for her. She apparently has never worked the coronary unit at Harborview. Hell, one of my coworkers didn’t even turn on the game until mid-way through the 2nd quarter because he didn’t think he could bear the strain. I told her we didn’t want her negative attitude in the sales office because we are all positive thinkers. Ha! Seahawks fans are by definition *not* positive thinkers. She told me to get a life, which, coming from a controller, didn’t mean much.
We had a great time with our friends who made it over for the game. We, ever the foodies that we are, made a bunch of pizza dough for a pile-yer-own-pie feast. The people made some great looking pizzas. I’d wish I had stomach-room to enjoy them all, but I’m just glad I had an appetite! Two weeks from now, in honor of our recently vanquished foes, we will be dining on Carolina-style pulled pork sandwiches from the smoker!
Afterward, we enjoyed the spoils of our raid on my parents’ basement and played a few rounds on their ping-pong table. The lack-of-sobriety was mitigated by the improved lighting I installed on Saturday. That’s right, Johnnie Fishpimp installed him some track lighting! The room now has a real stadium feel to it. It’s bight, man. It’s so powerful you’d expect Hank Williams Jr. to come out singing “ARE YOU READY FOR SOME PING-PONGGGGGGG!!!!!”
Well, you’d better be, because we’re going to do it all again for the Superbowl!!!
Go Seahawks!!!

Thanks for the invite.... You must be more ashamed of the fishouse than I thought!
Not so ashamed that I have to post anonymously!

I'm all for competitive games, but only when they are between teams I don't care about. When it comes to the Seahawks, I want a good, sound blowout. Forty, fifty points... that's a good margin for me.
Bring on the smokehouse pork. I'll be sniffing out the back door to see when it is time to come over.
Hey Anonymous, how was the coffee?
