What we wait for all year............well, some of us...........maybe both of us. Tonight begins the live Barrett-Jackson auction broad casted from Scottsdale, AZ. This is something that the hubby looks forward to each year and I must admit, it is something I enjoy, too. We have our "game" food in and planned for the week. A week of vegging in front of the TV together, commenting on the outrageous prices, but also dreaming.....dreaming that we could afford those cars............dreaming that we were there in person.......dreaming that our own old 1960 Corvette would fetch anywhere those prices........dreaming that we were shopping in Scottsdale (oops that was my dream)......dreaming that we were eating at a fabulous Mexican food restaurant (oops where do I get these dreams?). Not only are we watching, we are taping it for our son for he also has a bit of the car fever in him. I guess it is better than watching any of the housewives shows or many of the other "fluff" programs. Don't even get me started on the disgusting programs on TV that pass for entertainment these days.
So........here we sit tonight, and for the next 5 days we will be watching and wishing the commentator would shut up so that we can hear what the auctioneer has to say about the auto....you know.......all the same trash talk that most men would say during a football game. This is our football game, except the hubby loves his football, too.
As my sister just messaged me, "And so it begins..." for she and her hubby also are watching. It is more than a TV program, it is just being together another year. Here's to one more year! And so it begins....... I love you!
