three games

 i didn't go outside for a while for the day as there was three games of interest to me. the first two were college basketball, my alma mater played in both of them. the iowa women were on TV, fox, at nebraska, but lost 82-79 despite leading for most of the game. the iowa men were on the radio, home against minnesota, and won 90-85 despite trailing at one point by twenty points. i did go take a walk after the second game was done, and shortly after i got back it was time for the super bowl. chiefs beat the 49ers, 25-22, in overtime despite trailing 10-3 at the half. just the second overtime game in super bowl history. there of course were the ads, a standout for me was the state farm ad with arnold schwarzenegger and danny devito. for me it was a reminder of how the two were in the movie 'twins'. as usual, plenty of ads for cars, beer and snack foods, although i knew in advance it wouldn't be any american cars. there was some from VW, as well as the BMW ad with christopher walken. didn't watch the halftime show that close, as it was the time when i made calls to get two bills paid, one was my credit card and the other was best buy. i heated up some chili on the stove for the evening meal and had some microwave popcorn as well. and i did the dishes after this third game was over. then i went on a walk and found 1 dollar 14 cents.
