Hey there Bat-friends.
I hope that you're all well and rocking your Friday.
This week has passed quickly... don't get me wrong, some moments have dragged, but holy cow, it's Friday already.
Work has been great, mostly because I've been listening to podcasts (Bill Simmons @espn.com & all of the smodcast.com network) and music (grooveshark.com) every day. It's been fantastic.
It's almost fantasy hockey time, and today the goal is to come up with a great name for my team before I start putting together my draft board.
I'm going to surprise some people this year. Look for updates.
Time to get some work done. Hit me on Twitter (@wallyzblogger) with your fantasy sleeper picks... penalty minutes and shots count as points for me... so keep that in mind.
Have a great weekend kids. Rock out hard.
Like wham.

Thursday Morning Musings - So Close Edition
Hey all.
I hope that Thursday has started well for all of you.
I was rocking out a little to hard at my desk and got a friendly ICQ (that's right we use ICQ in the office) message to get me to stop tapping my feet so loud.
I'll call that a good start to the day.
Also a good start was the free Subway breakfast that I picked up on my way to the office.
Thumbs down to the Blue Jays bullpen after losing 5-4 in the bottom of the 9th inning yesterday in Oakland. Especially after we scored 3 runs to tie the game in the top half of the inning.
Positive thoughts and wishes to all of you and the ones that you care about most. And the same to the ones that I care about most. You know who you are.
I'm in my "get rest and prepare" phase before what could be a legendary Saturday night back home. yikes.
K kids, I've got to get back to it.
Have a great day and keep rocking!

Wednesday Morning Musings - Mid-Week Edition
Hey all, hope that things are all going well.
Last night was pretty cool as 2 of the Brothers Z and I hit the Blue Jays game together. There were some other friends there with us as well. Great time had by all.
It would have been cooler if we could have picked up a win. But next time!
Big love and hugs to my favourite little guy in the world today on his birthday.
Shout outs to everyone who has rediscovered the blog over the last week after I was away for so long. My bad. And my love to you.
Maybe I'll get back to Twitter at some point.
I have to jet for now, but stick around. I'll try to make it worth your while.
Have a great days kids.

Friday Morning Musings, Found One! Edition
Good day to all of my friends, family, foes and fans.
I hope you're all having what's shaping up to be a great Friday.
Thursday was a pretty awesome day for today to compete with. E-ve had a pretty good birthday and I was happy to be part of it.
Her mum did a great job getting some M&M steaks for their dinner and then it was karaoke time. She did a great job singing Out Tonight from RENT and also Love Will Keep Us Together. Hearing her sing makes me smile. We also got to hang with a few of her friends from the restaurant. Everyone had big smiles, chips and salsa and laughs. Good times.
P.S. Thank you to the TTC street car and bus drivers for making a pretty sweet exception and getting her home quicker, warmer and safer than what could have been. Much appreciated.
We also got to share a few funny moments as some of the patrons would have fit perfectly at a bar we used to sing at in Ottawa.
I had a good time trying 2 songs that I had never sung before as well. The 1st was Use Somebody by the Kings of Leon. I felt pitchy to start but was happy with it overall. The 2nd was Chicken Fried by the Zac Brown Band. I had some trouble with the flow of some of it. But the chorus and I got along just fine and I dig that song. It's still in my head.
The cable is being dumb. Digital radio is all I have access to.
Tomorrow marks the start of the 2nd half of the CBC fantasy hockey season. It also means that if I get my stuff together and make good picks I might be able to make a run at the KIA they are giving away. Wish a dude luck.
I was very confused by the whole colour thing in all the girls statuses on FB yesterday. I did figure it out. And I am made to understand that it's in support of Breast Cancer awareness. As long as everyone knows what it's about I think it was probably wide reaching enough to spread some serious awareness.
Does anyone else remember when Heroes was worth waiting for every Monday night?
In other Monday night entertainment news: Chuck is "this close" to being back. There is a 2 episode shot for your viewing pleasure on Sunday night, followed by another episode on Monday night. IMDB is showing 12 episodes for this season which means a quarter of their season is coming up in the next 4 days.
I hope everyone is finding a way to stay warm on this chilly day.
I think that's all for now mes amis.
Have a great day. Happy Friday!

Monday Morning Musings, Congrats To CB4 Edition
Good day to you all.
Here’s hoping that your work week has started well so far.
E-ve just fired me a message saying that lunch is crazy slow at the restaurant. So hear this my friends, if you’re hungry and didn’t bring your lunch to work it’s okay to scrape together a few dollars and eat out in January. Just remember to be friendly and tip well.
Big win for the Raptors last night at home against the San Antonio Spurs. I didn’t see that one coming at all. Congrats as well to Chris Bosh who became the all time leading regular season scorer in franchise history. Vince Carter no longer holds the title which is just fine with many Raptors fans. Now everyone is just hoping that this is one more thing that will help to convince CB4 to stay in Toronto after the season is over.
Also in the big win category is Team Canada. The World Junior Championships semi-finals were played yesterday and Canada got a little bit of a lucky break when they got the Swiss instead of Russia after an upset in the quarter-finals. Next up is Team USA in the finals on Tuesday. Canada is gunning for a 6th straight gold medal and the whole country is behind them.
I’m currently fighting off a sore throat, but I haven’t yet run into the cough and congestion that comes with a real cold. I’m hoping that tea and water and such can keep me away from what could come.
E-ve’s birthday is coming this week… so if you see her wish her a happy one even if it is a few days early.
And after we celebrate E-ve’s birthday we get to celebrate Chuck returning to TV. It’s about a thousand clicks down on the planning, excitement and importance meter, but it had to be said.
There is snow on the ground in Toronto after the first real wintery day yesterday. It’s cold again today and has been cold before, but yesterday really felt like winter with the combo of cold and snow.
I think that’s all for now mes amis. My mind kinda went blank for a few minutes.
Have a great day.
