bearshortyI know that today is a Superbowl. One cannot avoid it. And technically a New York team is playing and I do want them to win. (And they did, yay). But since I have no interest in the sport, I pretty much ignore it. I do watch the ads on Hulu, though. Last year I could vote normally there if I liked the ad, but this year you need Facebook (which I don’t have and don’t want).
Liked: Audi Vampire party, Dannon Oikos the Tease, All Coca-Cola ones with Polar Bears, Acura Transactions –Extended, David Beckham (for purely superficial reasons), VW dog working out with Star Wars extra, M&M for using the Sexy song, Toyota: It’s reinvented, Ferris one
Disgusting: Flower one with “give and you shall receive” tag for guys. Yes, all it takes to get a woman into bed is nice pretty flowers.
Dream Car – yes, women dream of a guy on a white horse and men dream of cars in a stadium of bikini clad women. - how original.
Stupid: Cherovet 2012: so only 5 guys and a dog survive the Apocalypse in your manly trucks. Whatever will they do now!
Fiat car is literally a girl – how nice.
I still have a cold, argh. And now as per schedule my nose is runny. I still can’t project my voice which should make lecturing interesting tomorrow. We’ll see what happens.
I did leave the house thought, since I had to go do my taxes. I do like going to an accountant and just taking care of it. I have to pay a lot this year since I didn’t pay much of federal tax during the year. It’s annoying but what can you do. At least it’s done.
I wrote my Transatlantic Slave Trade lecture today with Powerpoint. I’m also focusing a bit more on Africa before Europeans came to give a sense of the variety of cultures in Africa and participation in global trade before the Portuguese.
Downton Abbey. Violet manipulating Matthew’s mother to free Downton made me giggle. Just Maggie Smith’s facial expressions.

Date: 2012-02-06 10:06 pm (UTC)This is me exactly. I *did* watch this year (for the ads), but I would have been just as happy not seeing them at all.
So sorry you're under the weather. :( Hope you're feeling better soon.
