The Super Bowl Dilemma

The Super Bowl dilemma started a few days ago for me. Not the usual dilemma like will I serve pizza at the party, do I make a spinach dip with the funny bread that no one buys unless there is a party, or do I open the party to everyone or just a select few that will really enjoy the game. No my dilemma was which province would I be in for the game. Now since my Cowboys didn't make it to the next round... (this is a touch subject for me right now, please don't make me go back to therapy) I am not overly excited at this point in the game. I am sure that once the game gets closer things will change, but I am still feeling a little bitter.



Needless to say I am working on a project at work which requires the travel to our Eastern brother's province of New Brunswick. I didn't realize when I started planning the project that the heart of work was going to be going on Super Bowl weekend.... WHOOPS! It was actually Michelle that reminded me that it was Super Bowl weekend (how is it possible that she would know that and I don't - Very Weird). So as I continued to do the planning the VP was suggesting that I should be down there to watch over and if any problems would happen to occur, at least I would be there to help out. Oh boy, what did I get myself into? So the last couple of days I have been trying to figure out, how I can be in Moncton, NB and still watch the whole game. Maybe there is a bar close to watch it in... Things were looking very bleak....

Then it came. The email that I was longing for! I was told that a different manager should go along with the team, because he had a good relationship with the Moncton VP. AWE SHUCKS.... To bad for me.

Now I have to plan a party.

So what's the party plans now?

You really lucked out there! I would rather take a trip to NB than watch the SuperBowl, but that's me. Calvin is upset too that his Cowboys are out now. You and him could grieve together ... if we still lived in the same city, that is.

Please accept my regrets about the Cowboys.
