It has been documented.
More than once.
I don't do birthdays. Not mine, anyway.
The last time the AFC Championship game was held on January 23rd at Heinz Field, it didn't end so well. (Understatement of the year, right there.)
But, I've been saying This Year is going to be different. This Year is going to be great, even if I have to kick my own ass left and right to make sure I choose to make it great.
Today started out like there was a giant Dyson in the sky. It hovered overhead, sucking the joy away. And then today went downhill fast. WAY fast. The details aren't important.
However, Today ended with a sleeping kid curled up in my lap, a piece of ice cream cake in my hand, and a Steelers victory on my TV. It simply doesn't get any better than that.
This is going to be the best year ever.
This makes three Superbowls in Alexis' five years. Add in that the Penguins definitely don't suck, and it's a good thing we have the Pirates to teach Alexis about losing.
