Random Thoughts for Tuesday....

1. How's about them Pats? You know, if that was a mediocre Tom Brady -- I'll take it. At first, I thought maybe we didn't win the game so much as Buffalo lost it; but that's not really a true statement I don't think. While the Patriots seemed "off" the first half, the Bills were off the second half (or undisciplined, your call on the choice of words...) and so that was one hell of a win. It was the craziest game ever, or at least it felt that way. A win, is a win - and for the first game in a year for #12 - it was definitely a glimpse into how great they can be if they can work out some of the kinks by week 5 or 6.

2. I'm sick of shopping. Never thought I'd say those words, but yet.... here I am. I've been to Homegoods, TJMaxx and every other type of store you can think of for store fixtures, etc. -- and I'm tired of it. I'd love to go when I can actually buy something for my house or me. I know I whined a little about that last week, but the whine is still going.

3. Speaking of shopping and football....initially G and I were going to Wrentham Outlets for our anniversary, and spending the night at Patriots Place, topping it off with a Pat's game the next day. Unfortunately, due to the very, very, very expensive buildout - those plans are off. I'm trying to think of something low key and less expensive that we can do instead. Thinking.....

4. I'm really excited to make dinner tonight. Sounds crazy, I know -- but I'm making lobster ravioli with a seafood sauce, and a garden salad. I love to cook, and I happened to make a jaunt to Trader Joe's on my way home tonight where I picked up some fun things to cook with. Oh, and for the record, the wasabi peas that I'll be carrying in my store blow away the ones at TJ's. Just sayin....

5. I've been musically challenged lately. I've been downloading tons of fabulous acoustic and jazz music, but have yet to find anyone new. If anyone has any suggestions of some great artists to try in the coffeehouse or jazz genre, please feel free to pass them onto this girl!

The last three minutes of that game made the rest worth it. (Except boy do we need something to come together on defense. Yikes.) And uhhh... same sort of adrenaline with last night's Sox game. I may not survive the week if this keeps up!
