2/8/10 - Kinda Super Sunday

Last year at this time I had a Super Bowl Party at my house. I cooked fried chicken, macaroni salad, lettuce and tomato salad, people came over and we watched the game (and the expensive commercials) on the 61in screen. The guests then had Entenmann’s cake for dessert.

Fast forward to a year later. No calls from friends for where the Super Bowl Party was this year. No needing to cook for a house full of people. I cooked dinner the day before and ate early. I brought along dessert (homemade oatmeal cookies) with me to the sports bar. And gave cookies to my friends. They might be a few different friends than the ones I hung out with last year but is all good.

If I wanted to have a party I would have sent out invites and waited for replies. But I guess I’m not in the mood to be the hostess with the mostest this year. Maybe it’s too soon. Maybe I needed a break. Maybe it’s time to make new traditions. Do new things. See how everyone else is having fun. I think I can do that.

I’m not upset at my friends who haven’t called. They have lives, they have things to do. As do I. At least I thought to send out a few text msgs at half-time and got some cool replies.  The game was good, some of the commercials were funny and all went well. And yes, it was fun. I had a really good time. The sportsbar was definitely the place to be to watch the game. The friends made it fun. New friends made it better. And I will remember smiles and laughing and looking forward to the next time.

Cause yes. There is always a next time.

Thanks for another fun time:
