February 6, 2011

I had quite a bit riding on Super Bowl XLV: had the Packers lost, I would have been responsible for providing two meals at a local burger establishment. However, since the Packers won, I am now looking forward to a dinner at Uchi and some delicious tacos. Needless to say, I am one happy camper. Besides the spoils of victory, I have to comment on the viewing experience: Alice and Dustin had everyone over for a potluck, had an indoor and outdoor TV set-up, a fantastic backyard fire, and no shortage of delicious food. I'm not sure I can watch the Super Bowl any other way in the future. New tradition anyone?

I love the sounds of a good game of pool and the feel of a perfectly planned, and executed, shot. I've been playing the game with various people since high school, but my favorite person to play pool with is Nicole. We played tonight to celebrate her extremely exciting news from Chicago, for which I am so immensely proud of her. Four rounds of pool and complete control of the jukebox makes for one fantastic NiKim evening. I hope for more fantastic news from Chicago at the end of this week so we can celebrate with more pool and tunes!
