Good morning kids.
Welcome to Tuesday. I hope it has found you well.
Big lovin' to E-ve as exam studying season has started and is now in full swing. I have a ton of faith in her smarts and have no doubt that she's going to rock next week. Also, thank you to her for being awesome when times get tough.
Disappointing end to the Blue Jays season opener yesterday as Jason Frasor allowed 2 runs in the bottom of the ninth for a 5-4 loss to the Rangers. Vernon Wells and Adam Lind both went deep for the Jays in the loss giving some hope for the offence moving forward.
Yesterday's lunch of hamburgers really hit the spot. But now we need more sandwich pickles. As E-ve remarked, you can never have too many.
Side note: I love looking at well painted graffiti.
Congratulations to the Duke Blue Devils and Butler Bulldogs after last night's NCAA title game. Duke won a close one, 61-59 and are once again champions. I'm not happy, but that's what happened.
What did make me happy last night was Chuck. That show is the best on TV. The only downside is that they are taking a 3 week break.
The Habs can clinch a play-off spot tonight with a win over the New York Islanders. It would be nice to get it done now and not leave anything to chance Saturday against the Leafs.
Huge news... Romeo is on Twitter. Find him and follow him @romeoblogs.
Next will have to be Jake and E-ve.
I think that's all for now friends.
As always, if this is the only day of the week you're here, see you next Tuesday.
Like wham!

Sunday Morning Musings, Who Cares About The Time Edition
Hey there world.
Happy Sunday. I hope it’s a good one so far.
Big ups to E-ve who made it home safely. Made me very happy to see her and have a hang out date. She was also very gracious in victory last night after the Leafs beat the Habs in a shootout. We had a deal going into the game and both of us did a very good job of not breaking the deal and gloating at any point during the contest.
E-ve also made the best decision of the night when we called for chicken wing delivery for dinner. Excellent choice, and the garlic bread on the side was a great touch.
Also, feel better soon. xo.
Sad faces as my bracket isn’t looking so great in the NCAA tournament. I’m still doing alright compared to everyone else that made picks, but I’ve been taking a beating as schools have been rocking upset wins at an alarming rate.
I realized (thanks to @technicolor_cat) that I’ve been missing out on sports card collecting for way too long. It took only 1 tweet to make me notice this fact. McDonalds hockey cards at the start of every winter just aren’t cutting it.
Big thank yous to Jake for sending Batman comic books back with E-ve after her trip. I haven’t cracked any covers yet, but I’m tres excited to get started on the 8 issue run of Batman and Family.
It’s not a warm, sunny day in Toronto so far. We were at 0 this morning which meant that I had to wear a real coat when I left for work. E-ve supplied me with my first coffee of the day though, so I started to warm up pretty quickly. Thank you sweetheart.
I’d like to say thank you to everyone that stops by to check out what I have to ramble about here. You guys are pretty rad.
Thumbs down to my BB which has decided that it doesn’t want to vibrate any longer. That’s not awesome at all. However, I am only 3 months-ish away from new customer pricing on a new one. So that ain’t too bad.
Chuck is on tomorrow. Yay!
I have still only won 2 free coffees from Tim Hortons in this year’s Roll up the Rim contest. Boo.
I’m pulling for Andy Rautins and Syracuse right now against the Gonzaga in the NCAA tourney. I think that E-ve is cheering against me because she loves Gonzaga, but I have a feeling that I’m going to win.
Happy 28th birthday to Aaron Hill of the Toronto Blue Jays.
I think that’s all for now my friends. I hope that you all have a great afternoon.

Friday Morning Musings, Day 11 Edition
Hey there kids!
Happy freakin' Friday.
Big lovin' to E-ve who had a busy night yesterday. Seeing Urinetown on openning night, hitting a karaoke bar with Romeo hosting and then stopping in at our fav gay bar will make anyone sleepy. Which is why I'm assuming she's not yet replied to my good morning sms. Big X's and O's to you my E-ve.
High fives to Jake after openning night. I'm sure that tonight will be great too. And every show that follows.
March Madness has been especially mad so far. Experts and fans alike are saying that yesterday may have been the best 1st day of the tournament ever. If you've never heard of a March Madness Widow I suggest you google it. Might save your relationship.
Today is my first day off since a week ago Monday. I slept in. It was awesome. And now I'm lounging with the NCAA's on TV. Heck yes.
Baseball season just keeps getting closer. And that makes me a happy and excited boy. I'm not sure what my first game at the ballpark will be this year, but I'm hoping it's in April.
Also, Heath and I have a date to hit the Raptors game next Friday. That excites me.
It looks like the sun is shining through my blinds. Maybe I'll go out later to run some errands and see how it is for reals.
Spring is just around the corner and then comes summer and for Canadians that's a wonderful thing. Because we're so used to cold and harsh winters (which admittedly we didn't have this year) we usually go a little crazy in the summer. You'll see people that BBQ every day, wear flip flops in the rain, rock their tan lines and sunburns and just enjoy the heck out of it. Bring it on I say.
Big ups to The Score Television Network for their NCAA coverage. Split screens and fewer commercials and 13ish hours a day is hardcore.
It feels like forever since the Habs played. But tomorrow night they get a pretty hot Maple Leafs team in what should be a pretty good game.
Didn't eat pizza last night. Maybe today. Maybe not. Maybe salad. Maybe not.
Time to check out for now mes amis. There's just too much going on to concentrate.
Have a groovy Friday and a great weekend.
Like wham!

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!

Wednesday Morning Musings, St. Patrick's Over The Hump Edition
Good day sirs and madams.
Happy St. Patrick’s Day. If you’re Irish, celebrate. If you’re not, pretend that you are and celebrate.
Big lovin’ to E-ve as she is already on the road and on her way for her mini-vacay. I kinda sorta miss her already. Lame I know.
Huge win for the Habs last night over the Rangers. It puts les Canadiens on a 6 game winning streak at the best time of year for a streak. We’re starting to see some separation from the bottom of the play-off ladder and might even be able to climb a little bit. Awesome.
The sun is shining again in the city today and they say that we can expect a high of 17 degrees. That’s pretty friggin’ hot since it’s technically still winter. Crazy.
I just wiki’d DC animated movies and found that the next planned flick is Batman: Under the Red Hood. I can handle that. With a cast that IMDB.com reports will include Neil Patrick Harris, Jensen Ackles, Jason Isaacs and Bruce Greenwood it could be very good. I’m excited. IMDB also reports a July 27th release this year. Yay!
A quick request, if you’re drinking tonight please don’t drive. And if you’re in a big city, please be careful when you’re walking in and around traffic. The last thing anybody wants to worry about is an accident in the middle of a happy time. Thank you.
I won a coffee! That’s right. I have now won 2 coffees from Tim Hortons in the Roll up the Rim contest.
With Friday and Saturday off this week and not a whole lot of money to play with I think I will sit myself down and drown in NCAA basketball. Heck yes!
The parking cops are out in full force now that the weather is better. Be careful friends. Nobody needs a ticket for not paying attention.
Mmm shawarma.
It’s day 9 of 10. And it’s a 10 hour day. So, if you love me, pray for my sanity and ability to stay awake.
I think that’s it today friends. Happy hump day. Happy St. Pat’s.

Friday Morning Musings, Up To E-ve, Down To Duke Edition
Hola amigos.
It’s Friday. Enjoy it.
I just turned NCAA basketball on the TV here at work. I’m getting into it. I must have been wrong yesterday, underestimated myself.
Big lovin’ to E-ve today while she rocks the lunch shift. Be nice and smile big and I promise she’ll return the favour.
Also, getting more excited every day as we get closer to a Saturday date. Yay!
Big win for the Maple Leafs last night in overtime. People are saying that the game winner was Phil Kessel’s biggest goal in a Leaf uniform. If it is, he hasn’t done much.
Bigger win for the Habs last night against the Oilers in the shootout. It shouldn’t have gone that far, Halak was shaky, the killer instinct wasn’t there when it needed to be, but 2 points go up on the board and they are sorely needed at this point in the season.
Congrats to Vanman444 in the CBC.ca fantasy hockey pool. Dude is leading the way this week with 70 points so far and has 4 Habs on the roster. I haven’t been that brave all season.
Little Big Town is putting a push on to have their new single “Little White Church” become #1 on iTunes. I haven’t heard it yet, but I love these guys. If you have a chance I say check it out and then tell me what you think.
I’m thinking that I should stop by the myspace today and see how things are going. Maybe it’s not dead after all.
Neither msn.ca or yahoo.ca are inspiring me to look at their links and stories today. Thumbs down to them.
As I said on Twitter today, Thumbs up to Roberto Luongo for carrying the Paralympic torch in his return to Vancouver with the Canucks. That’s a classy move from a dude that I’m sure has a lot going on.
The rain started this morning but has stopped, for now. I have my raincoat at the ready.
High fives to everyone today, I’m just handing them out. You’re welcome.
I hate Duke University basketball and I don’t care who knows it.
I also love my E-ve more than I hate Duke University basketball. And that’s a lot.
I think that’s all for this work week kiddies. Check the Twitter and maybe even the myspace for something new later.
Have a good one.
