You’re watching American Football?
(Nodding) Yes… watching it even as I’m typing…
Isn’t it… Australia Day public holiday?
Yes… (shrugs shoulders)
You’re not celebrating Australia Day?
No… Hunny Bunny… we do not talk about Australia Day as “celebrations” in this household…
Oh? Why not?
(Sigh)… we also do not… get into politically controversial topics about Australia Day on this public blog… but just know, we don’t say that we’re “celebrating” Australia Day… you can google the rest.
Oh… okay… so… you’re spending Australia Day watching Americans play… American football?
(Nodding) Yes, and I am feeling very happy right now watching the Chiefs versus the Bills!
(Chuckles) What do you like about it?
Honestly, I hadn’t been closely following the NFL this year. I followed it WAY MORE closely last year. But I think they even said they’re not going to do that much Taylor Swift coverage cos there was too many complaints from “Dads, Brads and Chads” — So I just didn’t follow it closely. I saw some highlights on social media. And plus — we’ve been having our re-kindling — so… I just haven’t followed it that closely.
What changed today? Are you getting sick of me?!
(LOL) No darling, I’m not getting sick of you… because… I saw on Instagram… it’s AFC Championship. AFC is like the semi-finals. If Chiefs win this — they’re going to the Super Bowl.
Oh… so it’s getting exciting?
(Nodding) Yes… it’s getting exciting… if they get to the Super Bowl that’ll be really cool. I know it’s KENDRICK. Kendrick is doing this year’s Super Bowl halftime show. That is gonna be LIT!!!
You’re excited to see Kendrick?
YES! OF COURSE!!!
(Smiling) I like Kendrick too.
I know, right?!?! He’s cool!!!
He is, yeah… (nodding)… he’s really cool… I wish I could make music like Kendrick — me and my genre? We’re not like Kendrick…
(LOLOLOL)… Would you ever want to perform at like an equivalent of your country’s Super Bowl one day?
(Thinking about this)… Maybe…? I’d have to discuss it with the bros…
I think it would be cool.
Really?! But you wouldn’t even be watching it. It’s not in “your language” — English.
(LOL) I know but — I think it is a parallel. I can understand how culturally significant it would be for YOUR country. I mean, American Super Bowl — okay, that’s like global. You guys aren’t there at all. But if you did your country’s equivalent — I can imagine, that’ll be something really special, not only for your fans, but your country as well…
People look up Super Bowl performances as like, HISTORICAL MOMENTS IN MUSIC. At least, that’s my understanding of it… as a pop culture girlie… of “Western” pop culture… if you’ve done a Super Bowl, you’re carved into stone in modern musical history — in America, in other English speaking countries… (maybe)… at least in America, it seems…
So you think… me and my bros… should carve ourselves into the history of… our country?
I mean — if the opportunity arises?
What if it clashes with our wedding?
Okay. Fine. I didn’t say anything. Don’t do it…
(LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL)
Don’t do it on our wedding year!!!! Please!!!!!
(Chuckling) It’s okay… we haven’t even been offered anything… we’re not THAT big…
Yeah… just your genre… that little niche following…
(Nodding)… It would be cool… one day… but… yeah, maybe after our wedding… maybe after 2027… who knows… I don’t have a crystal ball… can you ask that psychic that you like to ask about these things?
Hmm… let me go text her now…
PSYCHIC:
(Shuffling some tarot cards)…
Something is brewing… after 2027… there may be more than one… event? Being offered…? There may be more than even two choices… The Bros will all have to come together to decide which event — out of all the offers — they’re actually doing… it could be… in their country… it could be… in another country… in more than one country… there’s lots of events that will ask them… after 2027…
Can we get a clarifier please?
PSYCHIC:
(Shuffling more cards)…
Oh… the fight is between… Your Husband… he wants to do the event… in Australia… but the bros… some of them want to do the event in their country… and others want to do an event in America… there’s a lot of behind-the-scenes discussions… but your husband is outnumbered. They will vote on it. He is outnumbered. Even if he wants to do it, because it means a lot of their rehearsals will be in Australia and he’ll be closer to you — he’s outnumbered. It’s a democracy. They’ll vote for either their country or America… it’s definitely happening… but they’ll vote on which country.
Is he going to be okay?!?!?!
PSYCHIC:
Yes, he’ll be absolutely fine… He’ll have a lot more Inner Strength after your wedding… Even more than now… You’ll be really proud of him, either way…
Yes, of course I’ll be proud of him!!!
(Turns to him now) You see?! You’re gonna be GREAT!!!
(Smiling) (Hugs & Kisses)
