Hey there friends.
It's Friday and we all know what that means... Yesterday was Thursday.
And a great Thursday it was. E-ve and I had a wonderful day of hanging out and eating and grocery shopping and walking and Booster Juicing and napping and Kevin Smith watching from morning til night.
Wednesday night E-ve actually came over to start the date and rocked a great dinner for us. 3 courses including Mussels, salad and 5 cheese medalians with a Bolognaise sauce. Mmm.
Wednesday night also saw the Habs break up the Capitals winning streak. The Raptors beat Philly and the much anticipated return of Reggie Evans to the Raptors line-up. The fans chanted his name as he prepared to enter the game for the first time this season.
Today it's back to work after some schedule changes but right now I'm mobile as I head to another store for a pick-up. Not a bad way to waste some time.
I'm getting quite excited as my bday draws near and I get to spend time with E-ve and Jake and Romeo and Heath all at the same time. All the while being spoiled by my favourite Auntie Z.
Today is of course the first day of the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympic Games. The first event goes on the ski hills this afternoon and the Opening Ceremonies will officially kick things off tonight.
Good luck to all of the Team Canada athletes as they go for gold.
Last night I popped in the DVD of the 2002 mens hockey gold medal game from Salt Lake City to get myself ready for the action. And even though I fell asleep mid-way through the 2nd period I'm pretty sure that Canada won.
The new TV is being set up at work right now, so there will be Olympic action available as well as all the other action that the sporting world has to offer. I'm happy.
I think that's about a wrap for now my friends.
I'll close with some awesome news. E-ve very much seemed to like part 1 of her Valentine's Day surprise which made me very happy. And E-ve herself busted out with the surprising by baking me a huge chocolate cookie with a big icing I Love You written on top. The picture is on Twitter and will soon make its way to Facebook. I'm a lucky guy folks.
Have a great Friday and a fantastic weekend.
Like wham!

Wednesday Morning Musings, Home Cooking Experiment And Reggie Evans Edition
Bonjour mes amis.
Let’s get to it. Happy Wednesday.
Big ups to E-ve on a day off. I hope that it’s super relaxing and full of nothing.
Monday night we had a great hang out date night after I got home from work. The relaxing and chatting and such was fantastic. E-ve also contributed to the Home Cooking Experiment by whipping up some split pea w/ ham soup and cheesy English muffin garlic bread.
We’re hoping to have another tonight, but I’m not sure what’s on the menu as I forgot to get anything out of the freezer.
Last night’s Home Cooking Experiment saw me put together some taquitos and veggies just like the Super Bowl, but I also made some hashbrowns with cheese on top. It was a good combo with pickles and cheese on the side. I ate a lot of food, but I must have been hungry because I wasn’t guppied or anything after.
Tonight the Raptors and Canadiens are in action. The Habs look to bust up the Washington Capitals win streak which won’t be easy. And the Raptors look to win a game that shouldn’t be an issue against the Philadelphia 76ers.
Word is that Reggie Evans may hit the floor for the first time all season. That would be welcome.
I watched the Toronto disk from An Evening With Kevin Smith 2: Evening Harder last night. I hadn’t watched it in a long time and it was awesome. I laughed out loud a few times, especially at the Jesus jokes.
Let me set something straight here, I love Jesus. He’s gotten me through a lot in my life. But I’m a firm believer in needing to be able to laugh at things so that they don’t become too serious and start to edge towards angry.
The snow is falling in Toronto today. But it’s nothing compared to what some cities in the United States are getting. New York City made the announcement yesterday that they were closing the schools today. And Washington D.C. is getting pounded.
We are only 3 days away from the opening ceremonies for the 2010 Winter Olympic Games. Everyone is getting pretty excited. I’m just hoping that the venues work out and the Canadians are able to put on a good show.
More and more photos from the Home Cooking Experiment are making their way to the Wally Z’s Morning Musings page on Facebook. Check them out to see what I’ve been putting together.
I think that’s all for today folks. I hope that you all have a rocking good time with the rest of your day.

Thursday Morning Musings, Still Buzzing Edition
Good morning y'all.
Here's hoping that you're all over the hump comfortably and moving forward with your week.
Big ups to E-ve on a day off today. Unless she picks up a shift at the restaurant.
Yesterday was an exciting exciting day in the life of Wally and E-ve. We saw a Raptor and a hero and Canada's dad.
Breakfast started the days festivities as we rocked some fantastic crepes. Mine with a western omelete inside and some fruit and whole wheat toast to go with. And E-ve's rolled up into a ham and eggs and cheese and grilled like a panini. Good food for sure, fresh coffee as a bonus. And Reggie Evans walked in the restaurant to top it all off. If you don't know who Reggie is I won't hold it against you. He is one of the nine new Raptors that were brought in this season, but he hasn't played since the pre-season. He is a large dude, with a kinda scary lookin thing going on. But I was impressed and nonetheless. Maybe even more so.
The afternoon was exciting thanks to a quickly put together plan to see one of my pop-culture heroes and the man he calls Canada's dad. Kevin Smith was in town to help promote the 4th annual Walter Gretzky Street Hockey Tournament. The charity events raises funds for the CNIB and local gigs as well. And this year's goal, as put forth by Mr. Smith, is to break the record of 192 teams registered and playing in a Street Hockey tourny.
E-ve was a big fan of the cuteness of Mr. Walter Gretzky through out the day. He is a pretty adorable old man, I'll give him that.
Excitement continued with Wheel of Fortune as we watched from the comfort of the apt. and I came up with the answer in the bonus round. The catagory was Phrase and after the RSTLNE were up it looked a little something like this: _ _ _ _ _ N E / T _ _ T/ I'll give the answer later.
After E-ve made her way home to Wii fit it up and grab some dinner I chit chatted with Jake and Romeo about the day's events and got my last piece of exciting news for the day. Justice League: Crisis On Two Earths will be released on February 23rd. It's the latest in the line of DC animated features and will blow your mind if you're not familiar with the story lines that can come up with the DC Universe. There's a good Lex Luther and a set of bad guys that mirror the Justice League. I've already watched the trailer on Youtube and I think that this one could be good.
Habs game tonight against the long time rival Boston Bruins. The Habs need wins in a big bad way to stay in the play-off picture while they try to get healthy.
Last night was another dinner made at home. I think that I'm soon going to put a piece together that showcases all the good (and bad) stuff that I've made instead of scarfing down cheeseburgers and shawarma. But I do miss the shawarma.
Linked Romeo's latest blog entry on the Twitter feed last night. He's getting to be a regular. I like it.
The answer to Wheel of Fortune was IMAGINE THAT.
I think that's all for now mes amis. Tomorrow is another day off, so be jealous if you want to be. Maybe I'll go celeb hunting again.
