No, I did not have one. I watched the Puppy Bowl on Animal Planet, and maybe watched ~30 minutes of the actual human game. I'm talking about Todd. It had been a busy last several days with the elections going on in Iraq, so when I found out that they'd be able to watch the Superbowl, I was really happy for Todd--most weekends during football season in this house are spent on the couch watching games with some beers and a lot of food. Then I found out even better news for him! Each guy was allowed two beers to drink during the game! I'm pretty sure this is not the Iraq it was 5 years ago.
Todd sent me a couple pictures early this morning, so I figured I'd get them up before heading out for the day.
I cannot wait to see him!!! And yes, he's taken up smoking cigars.
With some of the guys in his platoon.
I'm really happy that they got a few hours of normalcy after a really busy and no doubt stressful week. Also, note that some people are holding Heiniken and Guiness...and Todd is holding Miller Lite in that first picture. Bringing a little bit of home on the Southside to Iraq. =)
