B is for BasketBall

If we didn't mention it earlier, we're alternating responsibility for planning our alphabet outings.   So Jessica suprised me with a phone call at work last Wednesday to let me know that the evenings events would start with attendance at the last men's home BB game of the season, versus Iowa.   Those of you that know me well know that I like BB quite a bit, so despite a very disappointing season for the Huskers, I was game.   Much as in football, the Big Ten Conference scheduling gurus have decided to feature an "Iowa/Nebraska" border rivalry at the end of the season.   Bonus for us was that the evenings events we courtesy of Jessica's employers, so it really wasn't that disappointing or unexecpected when the Huskers fell short and ended up losing 62-53.
This was a Rosie-free date, so we went to a local watering hole and enjoyed a post game dinner and drink.   As is often the case when we find ourselves without the little pumpkinhead, we took a little time to get acclimated back into "couple" mode, but just like riding the proverbial bike, it came back quickly.   We were shocked when we heard last call--it's been awhile since we made it last late.
