Whine and ye shall receive

Seems I may have spoken/whined too soon.  I got home, and what was in our post office box but four (4!) Christmas cards.  Two even had pictures.  And by that I do not mean they were picture cards (a growing trend), but rather actual photos for my photo album.  YAY!  That pretty much doubled our previous receipt, so I am stoked.  And feeling a little guilty for being such a whiner yesterday.  But now I can call myself out (via this blog) thereby absolving myself of the guilt.  Aaah, I feel much better.

A little upset with my Spurs today.  Three losses out of five games.  I do realize we have three major players out for injuries, but this a downward spiral I am not happy or comfortable with.  But I don't want to talk about it anymore.

Amusing moment yesterday that I would like to share.  My brother-from-another-mother (BFAM) and I were having another one of our philosophical disagreements (this one was regarding the "fun factor" quotient of Cool Ranch Doritos) and as I turned to my husband (and he to his wife) for reassurance of my standpoint, I received this response "arguing with BFAM i guess huh?". 

Huh? 

How in the friggin' world did he know?  Especially since all I asked was "do you think Cool Ranch Doritos are considered a 'fun food' a la Funyons, or more run of the mill like regular Doritos?" 

I was floored. 

I guess BFAM and I are becoming a bit redundant.  Nevertheless, I do not see it changing anytime soon.  Nothing wrong with a little healthy disagreement every now and then between friends.  Keeps you on your toes.  Besides, who wants a friend where all they do is agree with everything you say and see you for the insanely bright and well-knowledged person that you truly are without question.  That's what I have a husband for.
