Football Sunday

So, this is a quick one today: I got things to do. :)

First off, UHM, Ace makes a hard pumpkin cider (I assume for Fall-times...?). How did I not know of this happening?! For anyone who doesn't know already, I have a really bad gluten intolerance and I am unable to drink beer without getting atrociously drunk and then hung over the next day. So I love cider. And this? Oh, jeez...

Secondly, I found a cool thing about football. Not to say that there isn't much to find, cause I do enjoy the sport as a whole, but I never grew up watching football, so I get to view it as an outsider on my way into the sphere. I gotta say, it's a new perspective on a very strong undercurrent of American civilization. Wearing the jersey of my boyfriend's team, we were noticed and approached at the grocery store. Now, the Broncos aren't my boys-- I'm forever with the green team number 1 (NY Jets, baby)-- but it's cool to have that immediate, almost unspoken connection with people.

I liken it to the fact that I'm a raging geek/nerd. I love my 'Wars (not much of a 'Trek fan....) and my Arrested Development and so many people don't get the references I make or the silly clothing I have that accompanies my odd interests. BUT, when I go to ComicCon..... Everyone notices. And better, everyone already knows what it is.

It's almost like built-in friendships.

And I like it when the world works like that.
