It's a sad day at 9550 West Sahara, Suite 1136 in Las Vegas.
Despite Helen and I donning our beautiful Black & Red Texas Tech Cotton Bowl 2009 t-shirts (compliments of Anna) we watched the Red Raiders stumble, bumble and fumble their way to a 47-34 loss to Ol' Miss on Friday.
It was painful to watch the Tech defense play so poorly. The offense put up 34 points, but the Rebels shredded Tech's defense time after time. It was a sad end to a good season by Tech. It also cost me $25 that I put on the Red Raiders.
Earlier in the day, Helen and I went to Target on a shopping spree, courtesy of gift cards from Luis and Anna. In a flurry of spending, we bought a canister set, a set of cookware, and an iron and ironing board. Thanks to a gift card from Scott and Lisa, we had previously bought a great spice rack that holds 20 spices and a cool black iron napkin holder. Lots of stuff for the apt. that you need to set up a household, but that we'd been missing.
Helen made us a great dinner of green beans in tomato sauce over rice. It's a real comfort food that we both enjoyed. She cooked up a big batch, so we'll have some of that for dinner tonight - like a lot of stuff, it's even better the second day!
Today I'm planning on going to watch the NFL playoffs at the Red Rock Casino. I like the Cardinals and the Colts in today's games.
Tomorrow the adventure continues...
