I didn’t slice yesterday so figured (just for my own competitive spirit) that I’d do 2 today. This one will be quick.
“I’m just checking in on my favorite sleepless daughter, did you finally get some rest last night?” My mom asks.
“No.” I grumble.
“Oh dear.”
“And freaking Purdue is winning. And I undercharged this person for this freelance project, this stuff is taking me 10x longer than I was expecting.” I can hear the whine in my voice and try to dial it back. “It’s going to turn out really well though, she’ll be happy with it.”
Mom laughs. “I’m sure she will. And who knows, maybe Purdue will have a terrible second half.”
Purdue did not, in fact, have a terrible second half. They played incredibly and have a spot secured in the Sweet 16. I really don’t have anything against them other than the fact that I picked them to win last year and they lost in the first round. Out of spite, I had them losing second round this year. And they pulled a fast one on me YET AGAIN.
Here’s to March Madness being madness and to me getting some sleep tonight.
