So the Superbowl came and went, and as always the best part was the commercials. But Superbowl Sunday was a busy day for me, and let me tell you why:
(1) I came home Saturday after a movie with friends (The Departed at the campus cinema) and found that my comuters (both desktop and laptop) had been infected with a brand new virus for which Temple is the first target site. Yippee!
(2) I went out in the blustery cold to meet people to lead them to church (part of being a peer minister) and stood in the icy air for fifteen minutes just to wait for no one. So, being the devout Christian I am, bought a Philly Inquirer and went back to warm up with a cup of coffee and a paper.
(3) I then started the enormous job of ... and here comes the purging ... System recovery on my laptop. It was the quickest thing I could think of to fix the problem since the Help Desk was closed on Sunday.
(4) I went to the Temple game with a dear friend, at which it was dollar dog day, and had a bit of food.
(5) I come back with said friend and watched Rome, Season One, Episode 1and2 from the boxed set (because I am a classics dork who has it).
(6) I went to the most kicck-ass superbowl party of my life. There were about a dozen of us four couches facing four television sets. And, while I did not fully appreciate the volleyball, I did enjoy the commercials (my favorite by far being "Combos, they're what your mom would feed you...if your mom were a man.").
(7) I then came back to my room to fall asleep to awake to worse temperatures and Latin class and Greek Historians and Greek. I am really starting to hate being a Classics major.
Anyway, hope you had the greatest day and are staying warm wheree'er you are...
