I did not watch the superbowl. I sort of forgot it was on. In an extremely distant way, I'm glad the Saints won, just 'cause New Orleans needs a break, but really, I don't care.

Instead, I spent all afternoon in bed with my girlfriend. We have unequivocally (but very vocally) great sex. This is rare for me this far into a relationship, as one of the things I really enjoy about sex is having it with someone new. Two things made sex yesterday special, though: We hadn't had any in, gad, two weeks. This is pretty unheard of for us, but we've both been really stressed, unhappy, and really busy. She also had two (!) dates yesterday. We're still figuring out the open relationship thing, but dating other people makes us both really horny for each other, for some reason. Her attacking me sure made me feel more attractive, which I've been needing lately.

Today, I'm making crock pot carnitas. I've been forced to acknowledge that crock pot cooking is arrestingly awesome, but it's not immediate gratification. I started it at ten o'clock, and we'll eat at like six or seven tonight. It's slower than a Thanksgiving turkey, but I'll have dinner ready for my lady after a long, crappy Monday, which is pretty cool.
