the day after the superbowl = bad

0

It's shaping up to be a bad day for me each year. I'll start with how the day played out for me last year. The Giants were being spotted 10 points last year and I thought that was too much given how they had been playing. I ended up betting 1k on them. Obviously, I won that bet. We decided we should go out afterwards and celebrate the victory. This lead to many many shots. It was a great night. The next day I got up and went to the office. At 1130 I got a call from my mom. She was calling to tell me that she was about 15 minutes away. Shit! I had forgotten I was supposed to go have lunch with her. I had two problems. I was so hungover that eating lunch didn't sound like the best idea. I also hadn't spent anytime thinking about what to wear that day. I had thrown on some sweat pants and a sweatshirt. This was not good considering I was going out to a nice lunch. I thought in my head about how I could fix this problem. I quickly decided there wasn't really anything I could do about it. I would have to go out to lunch wearing sweat pants. My mom understood and didn't care, but I felt like a jackass at the restaurant. I'm glad they didn't say anything to me. I was able to get the meal down, but I still felt terrible. I ended up laying down on the ground at the office for awhile and eventually threw up in the bathroom. I'm not one to really ever throw up, so that shows how bad I was feeling.

I feel terrible again this year. This time around it's not an alcohol hangover, but rather a food hangover. I'm not sure if it was something specific I ate or just the fact that I ate so much, but my stomach is not feeling good today. My guess is that the massive combination of spicy chili, peperoni rolls, pasta, meat balls, 7 layer dip, guac, wiener dogs, ice cream, cinnamon rolls and brownies did me in. I ate a ton of food and none of it was even remotely healthy. I don't even feel like moving today.

I was pretty disappointed that the Steelers didn't cover. It looked like they would most of the game. It wasn't until the safety that I knew I was screwed. I knew them kicking the field goal at the start of the game when it was 4th and 1 would come back to bite me. I was pissed when they didn't go for it there. That cost me the win. I went 0-4 with my playoff bets. I also incorrectly bet on BJ Penn in the UFC fights on Saturday. That means I'm 0-5 in my last 5 sports bets. Pretty shitty. I'm a terrible sports bettor.
