Tailgate Thursday (making amends in an off week edition)


To those of you who closely follow my ramblings on this blog, you know that I am divorced, and a divorce lawyer.  I know the value of making amends, and as I mature, I'm learning to do it before it's too late.  Most of the time.

It's possible (well for you it's possible, for me it's a certain fact) that you've said or done something over the last six Saturdays that maybe you shouldn't have done.  I mean, hypothetically, your beautiful loving Wife may have touched your shoulder, and said she loves you.  And it's possible that your response was, it doesn't matter because I'm burning this house down if Evan Royster doesn't stop running like a girl, and I'm taking you and the cats with me.  You know, something like that.  Or maybe you threw a shoe through the TV. Or broke your finger.  Or any number of other things that I can totally relate to, but that a normal person would see as grounds for involuntary commitment to a psychiatric facility.  Everyone does, whatever.

Star-divide

Or maybe you're hungry.

First thing you do is lie to your loving significant other and tell them that Penn State is playing the most important game of the season this week, and you are going to skip it to spend it with her. [ED: Why do all of your plans involve a horrible web of lies?]  Then you buy her flowers, and you cook her one of the following two items.

Veal Braised in Tomato Basil Sauce.

Apple Braised Pork Pot Roast with Apple Pan Gravy

Tailgate Thursday is taking the week off, which is better than the offensive line, which is taking the entire season off.  We’ll see you next week.  Unless the Steelers lose, and then, well, I’ll finally be rid of the damn cats at least.

Donald Sutherland?

That makes it even funnier because his son, Keifer, has some known anger issues.

Maybe Jesse is Keifer……..

My favorite scene in the movie

Nancy Boy Lawyer Tom Cruise guy: “Can I call you Jon?”

Kiefer Sutherland: “[takes off sunglasses] No, you may not.”

Fruity pansy sissy coward whiny arrogant Tom Cruise guy: “Nevermind.”

Hey, jesse.

How much room have you got? I know tomatoes are entirely different in space requirements, but sweet corn + tomatoes = gardening perfection. I mean, you haven’t lived if you haven’t grown your own sweet corn.

I doubt I have enough room for sweet corn.

I have maybe enough room for 8 properly spaced tomato plants, or 12 too crowded ones. I’m going to expand next year, but while I have great soil, my back yard gets too much shade.

Week Off...

I for one am happy PSU isn’t playing this week. I don’t think I could have handled planning a tailgate and rescuing 33 Chilean miners (+6 rescuers) all in the same week!

to eliminate any confusion...

by “you never forget your wedding day” he means you never forget the day you sneak off to the magistrate at 10 am, come home and update your facebook status, then celebrate by watching the first ever college football game in 3D. pretty sure he’s going to be watching football for awhile…..

If I do get married,

I hope it’s something like that.

GO JESSE.'S WOMAN!!!

Jessedotsmom approves… finding out on facebook that you two got married made me smile. It’s just how joefromboalsburg and I did it 30 years ago, minus the facebook announcement! Joe & jesse. will be watching football for the rest of their lives!!!

Seriously, will you show my husband how to cook...

Divas don't burn. We’ll walk away from the explosion calmly and without looking back, like the badass character in a movie
