Oblivious

Apparently, there is an important competition of athletic prowess going on today. I didn't even realize it until this afternoon when a three year old girl at the playground informed me that she was going to watch the Super Bowl. Why is a toddler better informed than I am? Because my head is buried in my a--...manuscript. Yeah, that's it. I don't even know who's playing. The only thing I've heard about football lately is Tebow. Tebow tebows. Alec Baldwin tebowed ironically. How awesome is it that a person's name has become a VERB!

I salute the English language for its wonderful flexibility. Flexible for some. Me, I usually butcher it.
