Raise your glass
Raise your hand if you watched the State of the Union address last night?
Wait. Did you even know that it was on? Yeah, us neither. Okay, that’s not technically true. Since we keep CNBC on at the office, we remember the correspondents squawking about how ol’ Barry would be on the tube, but truth be told, we forgot too watch. Ooops. Even though we didn’t watch the address, luckily the “internets” provided us with a good recap of the speech this morning. As we were searching news articles, we came across a particular article that sparked our curiosity. Did you know there is a whole drinking game associated with the State of the Union address? Crazy, right? If we would have known about this, you bet your sweet bootie we would have been watching!
Anyways, we thought we would share with you a couple of the rules: Every time President Obama says… – “Hope” – Take 1 shot – “Let us be clear ” – Take 1 shot – “Make no mistake” – Take a drink – “Deficit” – finish your drink; borrow the drink of the person next to you and drink it too – “China or North Korea or Cuba” – Take a drink of something red with your left hand Moving soberly on. After the snowfall yesterday, low and behold, it was sixty and sunny today in Denver. We're telling you, people think it’s freakin’ freezing here during the winter. Psshhhhhh…so not true. Actually, could we just keep that last statement a secret between us friends? K. Thanks. Days like today make us antsy for sundresses, flip-flops, fresh berries and a high country margaritas Sadly it will have to wait. Tear. Until summer officially arrives, we decided to take advantage of the warm rays of sunshine and jogged in Wash Park after work.
As we were jogging, we quickly realized that next week registration officially opens for the Chicago Marathon! We need some input. Yay or Nay? Should we run this bad boy or not? After running The Big D, we vowed to run another marathon. We felt robbed, disappointed, and flat out pissed that we had to run a marathon in 90-degree heat. We swore up and down after that race we would have our revenge and finish a marathon under five hours. But the question we keep asking myself “is Chicago the right choice?” Am we ready? Do we have the time? Well, we have a week to decide! AHHH! Good thing dinner didn’t have any decision making involved whatsoever. We sautéed some ground turkey last night in anticipation for tacos tonight! All we had to do when we arrived home was sauté some peppers and onions reheat the ground turkey and assemble. Simple, peasy.
Do you know what else is simple? Watching the K-State Men’s Basketball team beat up on the Texas Tech Red Raiders. Booyah! P. S. Check out CGM on this lil’ website!
