Presumed to be awesome.

I wish it would either decide to rain or not, because these yo-yo changes in barometric pressure are giving me a headache that hasn't let up since yesterday. I am greatly displeased about this. Somewhat relatedly, there has simply not been enough coffee in my life today! I keep hoping coffee will take care of the headache, but so far it hasn't even managed to clear away the morning brain fog. *grumps*

Yesterday was a complete laze-fest. I did nothing but read and watch t.v. all day! Go me! \o/ I finished reading Lynn Flewelling's Tamir Trilogy and it was fantastic! I really loved the way she delved into some really interesting gender issues in this series. Fascinating.

I also watched the Pro Bowl and Larry Fitzgerald was fantastic! His smile makes me SMILE!!!

And I watched the Grammys, where Jennifer Hudson was fantastic. I don't care that she's a product of the American Idol machine; I love her! I also really loved the last-minute Justin Timberlake, Al Green and Keith Urban number and Lil Wayne's tribute to New Orleans with Robin Thicke, Allen Toussaint and Terence Blanchard. Some great performances!

Not great, IMO, was saddling Stevie Wonder with those Jonas kids. And one of them yelling out, "show me what you got, Stevie." Really? Are you kidding me, child??? I would have liked to have seen Stevie slap him across his bushy-haired head!

But since we're on the topic of music, last week stormcloude gave me the letter M in that I-give-you-a-letter-you-give-us-some-music meme that was going around. ( So here's some music brought to you by the letter M. )

In baseball news, Alex Rodriguez has apparently admitted to steroid use. The truth was definitely the prudent choice here, Mr. Rodriguez. In better baseball news, though, PITCHERS AND CATCHERS REPORT THIS WEEK!!!!!!!! There shall be another installment of "The Hot Men of MLB" later today to celebrate. *g*

Way to go Cardinals!!! They beat the Carolina Panthers tonight, 33-13, and advance to the NFC Championship game next week. Man, what an amazing win! Everyone and their grandmother had counted the Cardinals out of this game. But they just dominated, forcing turnovers, balancing the running and passing games, shutting down their offense, and Larry Fitzgerald was ON FIRE!

And, I'm pretty sure that 99% of you can care less about any of that. *g* So, let's move on to the show and tell portion of this post, shall we?

This guy? The one making the amazing catch in a sea of defenders? That would be Larry Fitzgerald.



I'd also like to point out that, in addition to having amazing hands, Larry has an exceptional ass.

( Allow me to share more of Larry's, um, talents. )

( I'm particularly fond of Larry in glasses. Sexy! )

( Edgerrin James is also quite talented. )

So, yes. Now that I've given all of you several reasons to cheer along: Go Cardinals!!! \o/
