Tuesday Morning Musings, En Francais Edition

Hey hey friends and fam.

Welcome to your Tuesday.

Great day at school wishes to E-ve.

I’ve got my fingers crossed for a big win tonight for the Canadiens at home against the Atlanta Thrashers. We need it, this losing thing isn’t fun at all. #gohabsgo

The temperature has been a whole lot better here in Toronto over the last couple of days with today’s forecast calling for 13 degrees Celsius during the day and evening and even 9 degrees tonight. I like it.

After watching last night’s episode of How I Met Your Mother I very much agree with E-ve’s sentiment with regards to The Hosser Hut. I want to go to there.

This working for a living thing is a pain in my rear end.

My hockey pool picks aren’t panning out too well this week. Here’s hoping that the rest of the week is a whole lot more productive.

Congratulations to all the Gemini Award winners for excellence in Canadian Television.

I have a hankering to go to the Hockey Hall of Fame. I think I’ll put it on my list of things to do. I wanna do the play calling and target sniping and goalie playing and plaque staring for a day. It’s one of those places that can make me feel like a happy little kid.

Those gosh darn Philadelphia Phillies won again last night against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Don’t they understand that it’s better for everyone if they just lose so that baseball can be played in the sun? I mean, when I was a kid we played baseball of some sort until it was too cold or too snowy or both to be able to do it anymore… but it didn’t mean that the baseball was good. When it’s cold you can’t grip the ball right, throw the ball as well, hit the ball as hard or put on as good of a show.

In the last 2 weeks or so there has been all kinds of French rolling around in my brain. I think it started when my cousin asked what I thought about her putting her little guy in French Immersion classes, but now I’m finding myself thinking in French, text messaging in French, hearing more French around me, French customers are coming in the store… it’s like the whole language is expanding around me. Maybe it’s time I watch a few Canadiens games en francais on RDS.

Here’s to you my friends, keep on smiling and fighting the good fight.

And, as always, if you’re only here this one day a week… See you next Tuesday.

Like wham!
