Cold November Rain

I worked alot of OT to pay for Georgia-Florida game experience. We had fun. We went to the Landing on Friday night and I had assured Nicole there would be kids there trick-or-treating and it would be appropriate family fun. The tricks time plays on our memories. There were very few kids, but we saw enough drunken young adult skin to last us a long while. If we go back we will either leave the youngins with a baby sitter or skip the Landing.

The game was tough. I hated it because I felt we were dominating in the first half everywhere but on the scoreboard. I don't think Urban Meyer is a good coach. He is a good recruiter and has unbelievable talent to play with, but his game plans are transparent and he doesn't seem to adjust well on game day. That makes it so hard to lose to his crying ass. I had talked a lot of garbage going into this game, but I was worried because of all the injuries and because I don't understand Willie Martinez. I work with a lot of Florida fans and will have to eat a ton of crow after this debacle. I will even have to hear it from a Mizzou fan for no reason other than my merciless non-stop trash talking with each of their losses.

We should be very good next year with all the experience our O-line is getting this year. Even with Stafford and Knowshon leaving we will be fine. This loss will sting, but I don't let it ruin a good time. We had a nice dinner after the game when Nicole and Chloe joined us (they were out spending money all day, Nicole decided to get her birthday present early). I stayed up late with the kids in the hotel room watching SNL. One thing I have decided is to take more trips. Even if they are short it is good to get out of the house. I also want to go on at least one trip a year with just me and the missus.
