Pigskins and Pedicures?!?

It's that time of year again-- when the air is crisp and the days are shorter-- when sweatshirts are a wardrobe staple-- when Rakesh is constantly trying to brainwash our kids (I'm not even joking) and all I ever hear from him is "the Browns should fire...wah-wahh--wah-wahh--wahhhh" (insert your best Charlie Brown teacher impression here) or "Ohio State is gonna win blah-blah-blah" -- that's right... it's football season!!

 

This year instead of dreading the inevitability of getting ignored for 5 months of Saturdays, Sundays and Mondays, I have decided to embrace this time of year.  I'm thinking that football is a good bonding time for all of my boys-- such a good bonding experience that there should be no girls around to ruin it.  I'm thinking that I should just make sure to be out of their way every Saturday afternoon and maybe even Sunday too-- I'm thinking I may have some of the prettiest, softest feet I've had in a while come Superbowl! I'm thinking "Yes... yes, I WOULD like to have a french manicure as well, thank you very much." Let's see how this all pans out...
BTW, I have started my own little covert operation:

 Don't tell Rakesh :)
