#22 Super Bowl according to Alex

by Alex Reifert on Sunday, February 5, 2012 at 11:36pm
there are some things you need to keep in mind when reading this recap:

1) this is the first super bowl that i have ever really paid attention to...
2) actually, it's the first football game that i have watched from beginning to end...
3) i brought a book to the super bowl party just in case i got bored watching the game like i usually do
4) i DID NOT watch the same super bowl game that everyone else in the world watched,
5) my mom's friends are just awesome!!!
6) there were jello shots, lots of beer, and a little bit of wine...
7) carly is female, doesn't know football that well, but is still trying to learn the game...
8) carly is EXTREMELY gullible...

so...
-what is the super bowl number? we respond "XLVI"... carly says "ok, but what number?"... "...46 carly..."
-which team are you rooting for? carly shouts that she's rooting for the one on the screen...
-the commentators are talking about Tom Brady... so, carly starts singing the Brady Bunch theme song...
-everyone started talking about the yellow line that was sometimes on the field and we told carly that one of the guys at the party put LED lights under the turf...
-one of the guys started talking about stars... then the halftime show came on and there were stars on the ground...
-madonna made the numbers jump at the halftime show
-the reason they run up and down the field is because of the mice and spiders, but the spiders disappear when they drop the ball...
-the numbers on the side of the field are how many alimonies the football players have to pay and they run to the endzones to get rid of an alimony...
-apparently they installed a doorknob behind carly when she wasn't looking just to watch her hit it several times during the game...
-the reiferts stick together
-"Waka w ask a" sent from my mom's phone... from carly...
-steve was trying to throw carly off and everyone went with it, he made up something about an app that you can get where you draw lines on the football field... there was actually an app called hardlines that was exactly what steve described...
-there was a touchdown where the guy stopped and dramatically fell back into the endzone... all you could hear was "what in the hell is he doing?"
-carly was trying to talk about the discount double check... kept saying discount double dip...
-most said phrase all night; "good thing you're so pretty, carly"
-the giants won 21-17

many more memorable moments... did you notice how most of these involve carly? it's because we love her SOOO much...

True Biker Chick

I stopped by Farm Fresh on the way home, today. Of course, I was on my bike.  I've gotten pretty used to weird looks. A girl walking around with a helmet and an Icon chest protector ... most of the time, they are looking for whatever guy I MUST BE riding with. Standing in line with my shampoo and hairspray, I heard a lady behind me say, "What do you ride?" Now, people who don't ride will say, "What kind of bike do you have?" ... I've learned that other riders will ask "What do you ride?" I was tired, on my way home from a late day at work and hungry. I didn't have time for a chit chat about bikes. Not today. I didn't turn around all the way. I said over my shoulder "A Yamaha YZF 600r." The lady said "Oh, thats nice dear." Part of me was annoyed at her tone. Another part of me felt disappointed in myself. I would hate if someone ignored my grandmother like that. I swallowed my pride and turned around. She was...

Day 5

Day 5 has to be about my favorite memory. THIS IS SOOOOO HARD! I have such a wonderful and fullfilled life that for me to pick one wouldn't be very fair. I wanna say that my favorite memory has to be the day that D was born. I love my baby ... he is amazing and he saved my life. I've done everything I could to make him have a wonderful life (including marrying a white guy! LOL) ... He is my wonderful baby ... he has such a beautiful smile and he is the silliest of my children... He and I have been thru so much together! Even thru it all he loves me and I love him.

Learning From Gabriel ...

I had rough morning with Gabriel. I let my 6yo get the better of me. I know he isn't a morning person, and neither am I. I went out of the routine this morning and let him watch cartoons BEFORE he was ready to go. (at the time it seemed like a good idea, don't judge). Time caught up to us and then it was a mad dash to get everything ready only to realize we were ahead of schedule. That just made me more upset ... that I was upset and I had no real reason to be. UGH. I left without hugging and kissing him goodbye. I made it to the highway before God told me I should call him and wish him a happy day. I called, apologized for fussing at him and I hoped he would have a great day. What he said next has been on my mind alllll morning. He said "We had a rough morning because you forgot to come into my room and pray with me last night. You have to remember to pray with me. When you pray with me, I have a good day the next day." I don't take Gabr...
