After a few crappy weeks, an ice storm, and a snow storm and sick grandkiddo that changed our anniversary plans, things are beginning to look up.
Undeterred, we found a way to make the most of our snowy weekend at home for our anniversary. Part of the fun was learning to salsa, courtesy of YouTube. This set me up to get ready for Benito Bowl (also known as the Super Bowl Halftime Show). And since I’ve been listening to Bad Bunny’s album DeBÍ TiRAR MáS FOToS and practicing my basic salsa steps to BAILE INoLVIDABLE and KLOuFRENS, I was ready to go.
Benito Bowl didn’t disappoint. The woman-led Seattle Seahawks organization beat the Pats. *jumps in the air and pumps fist* Led to victory by a quarterback who the league who wasn’t a flashy whiz kid and certainly not one of the powerhouse quarterbacks we expected to be there. I love a good underdog story. And I hate when a sport is dominated by the same organizations. So congrats to Seattle Seahawk nation. Maybe by the time we get those Back to the Future hoverboards we’ve been waiting on since 1985, my Cleveland Browns will be relevant again.
Then yesterday I discovered some exciting news. Made for Me, the book the kicks off The Black Diamonds Quartet—my Love & Music Suite spinoff—was included in Book Riot’s list of 16 Best New Romances by Black Authors, curated by Jessica Pryde.
