Saturday Morning Musings, Hockey Picks And Grocery List Edition

Good morning friends.



Welcome to your Saturday. I hope that you’ve all started it with your eyes open and coffee available.


High hopes that E-ve has a good day doing errands and such on her day off. The weather should be good and hopefully the crowds aren’t so bad. Smile big.


It was a great night to be me in the sports viewing world last night. My Habs had a big win in New Jersey against Martin Brodeur and the Devils. We never win there, we never beat Brodeur, and we needed that win, big time.


The Raptors also had a big home win against the Bucks in a game they needed to win to get back to .500. I was happy with effort that the boys put forth. It was gutsy and a welcome sight.


I even got up off of my arse last night and cooked dinner. It was chicken breasts and cream of celery soup with a bunch of salt and pepper and garlic seasoning all in pan in the oven. Thank you to E-ve for the tips via text as I had never cooked with soup before.


And to top it all off I did dishes. Well to be honest I almost did dishes, I put super hot water and soap in the sink and soaked a bunch of dishes.


Pee-wee Herman is hilarious. We’re watching his spot on Conan from this week.


I finished my CBC hockey pool picks this morning. And now I’m hoping for big weeks from Eric Staal, Mike Green, Martin Brodeur and Jose Theodore.


Happy to see that Romeo has his second post up on the http://www.semi-dailyplanet.blogspot.com/ it looks like he’s enjoying himself.


The plan is to do some awesome grocery shopping this week. I’ve got plans for chicken, sausage, ground beef, pork chops, onions, peppers, mushrooms, pasta, soy, peas, potatoes, etc.


I know that it’s only Saturday, but I’m excited for Chuck already. Stone Cold Steve Austin is going to be on this week and I think that Kristin Kreuk is also making her first of 4 scheduled appearances on the show this season.


Time keeps ticking by and customers keep coming in, so I’m going to call this a finished product for today. Have a goodie.


Like wham!

Thursday Morning Musings, At Work Not At Home Edition

Hola amigos.



Welcome to an at work Thursday. They are rare, but it happens. What can ya do?



Big ups and good luck to E-ve on Wing Night at the restaurant. Everybody that goes tonight is entitled to a free pound of mild, medium, hot or honey garlic wings. It could be busy if they've advertised well. I might even go after work for some dinner.



Bad break to end the hockey game last night as the Habs lost to the Blues in overtime. Ty Conklin robbed Markov and then the bad guys went the other way to score the winner. The bleu, blanc et rouge didn't play particularly well until the last 10 minutes but they made it interesting by scoring in the last minute of the 3rd to tie it up. I'll take the overtime point, but a win at home would have been nice.



The Raptors also lost last night, I thought they had a chance at the end but missed opportunities did them in. Here's hoping that they can get a home win tomorrow against the same Bucks team to get back to .500.



It's the start of the 1 month countdown to my birthday.



There will be 3 hours of Haiti relief TV tomorrow night as CTV, CBC and Global come together to air a 1 hour special to be aired on all 3 networks before the 2 hour George Clooney extravaganza. There will be a lot of press and a lot of ways to donate and support the relief efforts. Good luck to them.



Vancouver has made the decision to bring in snow by the truck load for the Olympic ski hills. The weather hasn't cooperated lately and while colder temperatures are supposed to be on the way you can't be taking chances in this situation.



Nice people are the awesome. Keep that in mind when you're deciding what kind of person you are going to be today.



I think that's all for today my friends. Writing on the BB isn't all that it's cracked up to be.



Have a groovy day.
