BUCKET OF ORANGE PAINT

If truth be told, I find football intensely tedious and boring,

although this particular Super Bowl

was an exciting event,

always glad when Adam

makes a winning kick, one for the little guys!!!

We have some gender confusion in our house,

my wife watches the football games

and I watch Trading Spaces (ever see that?

a home decorating show (I have a crush on the hostess)).

Anyway I snuck away now and then

from the big game

to watch TS in the other room.

Jen one of the designers (she's hot, HOT I tell you),

she's always barefoot with these pretty colors

painted on her toenails,

and she stepped right into a bucket of orange paint -

my oh my it was a riot, but she went right on painting

with her pretty foot in the stupid bucket

trying to ignore it

because I guess she was embarrassed, HA!

talking and painting, hamming it up in front of the cameras,

and all this while the stupid boring football game

was going on

in the other room.
