Thursday Morning Musings, Let The Madness Begin Edition

Hola amigos.


I hope that you are all ready for the Madness.

Super lovin’ to my E-ve. Even when she’s away she’s hilarious via text. And it sounds like St. Patrick’s Day was a success for her and the girls.

I have to make my cbc.ca hockey pool picks today since I won’t be at the computer over the next couple of days. I have no hunches at this point, but I have to be better than I have been this week. That’s for sure.

The sun is shining again, it’s awesome. They say not to get too used to it because clouds and rain will come sooner or later. But for now, I say enjoy it as best you can.

I mentioned the Madness because BYU and Florida just tipped off in the first game of the NCAA men’s basketball tournament. My picks are in and my fingers are crossed and I have a different winner picked than President Obama.

I can’t believe that the Raptors won last night. I turned the game off after the 3rd quarter and was so upset about their effort that I actually Tweeted that fact. And then Chris Bosh hit a jumper with 2.1 seconds left on the clock and the 5 game losing streak ended. Thank goodness.

I could really go for a big lottery win. I should buy a ticket.

Today is day 10 of 10. So if I can make it to 7pm I’ll have completed the mission. Go team.

Msn.ca has a Top 30 Rocker Babes list on their entertainment page today. I just popped it up, haven’t looked at it. Discuss amongst yourselves and argue as needed.

I’m tempted to order pizza and chicken wings tonight and watch basketball until I pass out and then as soon as I wake up again tomorrow. I think my body can handle that. But can my spirit?

Huge love and high fives to Jake as the curtain goes up tonight on Urinetown. If you’re in the Ottawa area this weekend or next try to check it out $12 for students, $15 for the rest of us. Google the name.

And a high five to Romeo for his How I Lost My Socks At Walmart blog. I linked it. I like it.

I think that’s all for now. There’s a lot to do today.

Have a great one!

Tally whoa!

Like wham!

Wednesday Morning Musings, Wii Belong In This World Together Edition

Good day to you all.

I hope that the chilly weather hasn’t shocked your systems too badly.

It’s mid-week now, half way to Romeo’s weekend, the first day of Jake’s weekend and my Friday.

Big ups to E-ve and best wishes to her mom for a speedy recovery from her current bout of not feeling so great. She’s a trooper. And all kinds of love to E-ve for being a great daughter and care giver.

All kinds of luck and positive thoughts are being sent to the ACC tonight as the Raptors take on the Miami Heat and try to continue their climb up the Eastern Conference standings. I really believe that this is a play-off team. I don’t know if they can win in the play-offs, but I think that they can get there.

Police in Toronto have started a street crossing safety blitz in response to the multiple deaths in the first 3 weeks of the year. I never thought it would have to come to this, but people actually need to be told to watch for traffic.

PETA is proposing a robot stand-in for groundhogs for this Groundhog’s Day. I didn’t read the story because I think it’s a little ridiculous. If you want to see what they have to say it can be found at yahoo.ca

The story in the news right now is that South and North Korea exchanged fire near a sea border that is much contested. It can’t be good for the world that North Korea has their back up and is ready to fire any kind of weapon.

I watched the Habs play in Florida last night and had my heart broken in the 3rd period. The boys couldn’t hold a 1-0 lead in the game and lost 2-1 after a penalty shot and an even strength goal.

I have urges to play video games. And I don’t usually have those thoughts. Maybe I’ll clean the apartment so that E-ve will bring the Wii over.

There are still 6 hours left in the work day. This could be a long one.

I hope everyone in internet land has a good one.

Later my friends.
