Hello!
Let's see how much of the previous weekend I recall. It was a pretty good weekend, mostly.
On Friday we chilled out after work and watched a lot of TV. First, the new episode of WandaVision. It was good! It gets more interesting each episode. Then we started watching Soul, the new Pixar movie. I made it about 30 minutes or so then gave up on it and decided cleaning the kitchen while listening to good music was more exciting. Adro and the kids made it another 20 minutes or so before deciding to take the rest of the night off and finish it later.
When they finished it later, Adro hated it, and Evey gave it an 8, while Boyd gave it a 7. Glad I didn't commit too much time to it.

On Saturday morning I made sausage egg and cheese biscuits for breakfast, along with hash browns like the ones from McDonald's, in the Air Fryer. The entire meal turned out GREAT. I was pumped about those hash browns!
A little later, mid-morning, Copy J came over for a visit. It was great to see him! He brought me some cool stuff, including some Schlitz bar memorabilia, and a very nice handmade wood six-pack carrying case.
It was about to snow, but we walked around the property. Weird moment came when we were walking to the creek... and two men are walking towards us from the other direction! Uhm, hello, who are you and what are you doing? Turns out, it's the new neighbor (one of them, at least) and they were checking out the back side of the property (the mowed down pathway is on my side, hence them being over there and the confusion.) Nice guy, but most excited to hear they have a young family with three kids in middle school/high school. The kids are excited of the idea of kids next door. Hopefully they're cool.
After Copy J's visit, I went to the comic book store and got some new bags and boards for my Spideys. Then I came home and saddled up to the downstairs chair and started working on the comics while watching old music videos on TV. The kids and Adro all stashed away in Boyd's room and had a play date with Mittens the cat while listening to murder mystery podcasts.
It was a very chill day and everyone just relaxed. I finished the evening with a few episodes of Breaking Bad, which has picked up some steam since I last left off (I'm on season three now.)

Sunday was Super Bowl Sunday and I was nervous. I got up and got busy. Cleaned house, made breakfast. Ran to Lawrence to pick up the grocery store order. Got home around 3:30 in time to get my game face on.

So many bad omens on Sunday, but I won't go into that now. It was a difficult game to watch. Evey was the most disappointed, followed by me. We talked about what we were witnessing. It was tough to enjoy any of it.
The game was so bad, my emotions never got too high. I'm so thankful we won it last year, and I'm so thankful we made it to back-to-back Super Bowls. I told my co-worker Jake, if five years ago you told me we'd be in back-to-back Super Bowls, but bad news, you'll go 1-1 in the two games I'd say, are you crazy, I'LL TAKE IT!
We'll try again next year, hopefully this gives the Chiefs some scar tissue to get tougher. But proud of the team and yeah, that was a bitter pill to swallow.
