Funny and not-so-funny story

Funny:
I am on a Flag football intramural team with some members from MBASA. We are called the "trophy wives" and all the other girls are amazed that we are married WITH kids. Playing freshman is the funnest!
What 28-year-old, mother of one doesn't daydream about a fantastic play in flag football?
Well, first off, am I the only one who daydreams?
So I had this great image of me knocking the football out of the QB's hands and catching it and running it back for a TD (I am a rusher). Then, right before I went to my game, Dave reminds me to "rip their pants off" - Which is a joke because he got his shorts ripped off in the front at one of his games.
Ironically, both of these things happened in last night's game. I grabbed what I thought was a flag and it ended up being the flags with a handful of sweats that ripped right off. Luckily, we formed the 'girl' modesty circle and she borrow a pair of extra pants someone had.
The next play wasn't exactly like I dreamed, but I rushed the QB, so she started running the ball and ran into her own blocker, which squeezed the ball out and I happen to pick it off and run it back for a touchdown. Very awesome feeling.
I also caught another pass for a TD. We won 22-0. I am loving the games this year! We are in the final 4 - wish us luck!
Not-so funny: Our computer died . . . AGAIN. I am hoping that it is just the video card and NOT all the pictures/ scrapbook stuff. But either way, if I ever want to scrapbook again, we have to buy a new computer. I guess digital scrapbooking IS expensive :)

Love the name - that is really clever and cute!

Sorry about the computer...I think mine is going that way as well, and I need to remember to save things so I won't be devastated when it does end up crashing.
