Boys and Girls

Here is an actual text conversation my brother Jared and I had earlier this evening:

Me: Please explain to me how 1 min left on the clock in a football game turns into an
        hour.

Jared: Timeouts, official replay reviews, squeezing the last paid commercials in.

Me: It's a little ridiculous.

Jared: If u like football, then it just prolongs the celebration of great theatre.

Me: Are you really comparing football to great theatre?  Like a Titans football game is
       the same as watching West Side story?

Jared: No, I wouldn't want to insult the art form and human drama of football by
          comparing it to West Side Story.

Me: I just want you to know that I am shaking my head at you right now.

Jared: That was my plan.  Different course for different horses.  U like theatre, I like
           sports.

On a complete side note, there are now mice in the house.  Byron found a couple of traps and graciously set mine up for me.  As I was watching him set them, I screamed like a little girl on more than one occasion.  I kept thinking he was going to hurt himself.  Of course, he would have been a lot less likely to hurt himself if he wasn't laughing so hard at me screaming like a little girl.
