Saturday Morning Musings, We're Back And Rested Edition

Hola amigos.

Welcome to your Saturday.

I hope that everyone enjoyed my 3 days off as much as I did.

There was a lot of napping, TV and Brick Breaker. In fact, I have a new personal best on the Brick Breaker now with a score of 26690. Go team me.

I also got to do some volunteering with E-ve at Community Centre 55 last night. It was a mess of people all trying their best to help a good cause. And for the most part things went quite smoothly. I only wanted to take control 2 or 3 times.

Big ups to E-ve for having the idea and for inviting me along for the ride. She’s pretty awesome with the giving.

She also makes great cookies, which in a bone-headed move I forgot to take home with me last night. D’oh!

Wishes of safe travels and happy times as Jake and Mrs. Jake get ready to head to Eastern Canada tomorrow for the Christmas break. The winter tires are on the car and it seems that they are both excited for the trip.

I had a great week in the hockey pool and ended up with my highest single week total in points over the last 2 seasons. Here’s hoping that I can keep that roll going next week.

The year is coming to an end, and that means there are a lot of year in review lists popping up all over the place. Here’s one of my Year’s Best. Most Romantic Song W/ A Piece Of Farm Equipment Involved: Big Green Tractor, Jason Aldean. Thank God for Country Music.

Someone please remind me to call Mommy Z later today to try to make plans for next week. I’m excited that it looks like I’m going to have some family time with E-ve there as well. That thought makes me a very happy boy.

Exciting news for Montreal Canadiens fans as world-class Defenseman Andrei Markov may be set to make his return to the line-up tonight. Fans of the Bleu, Blanc et Rouge are quite happy with this news.

I don’t think I’ve seen many smiles bigger than the ones I’ve seen on musicians making their first appearance on the stage at the Grand Ole Opry. That would be a once in a lifetime kind of thrill. If anyone out there is looking to grant wishes, please add that one to my list.

It’s a clear sky and cold day here in the city. The wind is blowing through at about 15 km/hr which is bringing it down a touch as well. Bundle up if you’re going out.

I think that’s all for now. 3 days off left a lot to say though, so I may be back with a 2nd hit today. You never know.

Like wham!
