Hey there kiddies.
Welcome to Friday. The day most of you have been waiting for all week. I hope it's been great so far and keeps getting better.
Best wishes to E-ve for a good lunch shift after a crazy Wing Night at the restaurant yesterday.
Also, get well soon thoughts out to E-ve's mom. Healthy and happy is always the goal.
There were a ton of fights in the NHL last night. I don't know if there was something in the air or if the planets were aligned differently or something, but there was a lot of the rough stuff.
Hoping that Heath has a great weekend in Ottawa and gets some hang out time with Jake and Romeo and the gang. I hear he's staying with Romeo, I'm sure there will be cuddles.
I'm a wee bit emo. I'm sorry to everyone that's in that shadow. Hope it goes away soon.
Finished my Kevin Smith SModcast book yesterday. Lines were crossed, laughs were had, good times for everyone. When I get a computer I'll have hundreds of hours to download and listen to.
Thinking that I'm gonna have to crack into the cereal here in a few minutes. Food is your friend.
Trying to figure out what movies/ TV shows I'm gonna watch today. Ideas welcome.
"Keep on woking in the free world."
I think that's all for now mes amis. Have a great day and start your weekend right.
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.

Wednesday Morning Musings, Day Off To Nap Edition
Bonjour friends.
High fives to everyone for making it to Wednesday. It ain't always that easy.
Big ups to E-ve for being the awesome and planning on coming over for a hang out today. Maybe movies, maybe a nap, maybe I'll kick her ass at Scrabble. Who knows.
I've just eaten cereal for my last 2 meals in a row. Tasty. Blueberry Muffin Mini-Wheats and Nesquik are both pretty yummy. But I'm thinking maybe when lunchtime comes I should eat something more substantial.
I feel a nap coming on. Maybe in preparation for Scrabble.
Gaborik came through with another 4 points last night in a big Rangers win. Dude is leading my week with 7 points in 2 games so far. And then there are Heatley and Thorton who have 3 combined points in 2 games that have seen their team score 14 goals. Are you kidding me?!
Jake has just informed me that his day may even be lazier than mine. Mostly because I am fully dressed.
I'm not sure I'm digging the new cable menu thing.
Best wishes for a settled tummy to E-ve. She's a trooper.
It's Habs game day. And I'm hoping for a win because the last 2 loses have been pretty friggin' awful. I don't really care what happens, I just want a W.
Remember to tell your mother than you love her. No matter if it's in prayer, in person, by email or over the phone. Don't forget.
Ellen is wearing plaid and I keep wondering if she's breaking or extending stereotypes. Either way, I lurve her.
I think that's all for today's day off edition.
Have a goodie.

Tuesday Morning Musings, Awesome's Back And School's In Edition
Good day to you all.
Happy Tuesday, I hope that it has started with a bang.
Big ups to E-ve who’s back to class today. I hope that she starts feeling better. Sick is never fun.
Not a whole lot going on today. As per usual. It’s a little bit colder outside, and there were even some snow flakes in the air, but it still doesn’t feel like winter.
Last night was a good and relaxing one with a soak in the tub and X-Men 3 on the TV. At the same time.
Tonight is a do whatever night and sleep in because I’m off tomorrow. It’s a split weekend with Wednesday and Friday off. It’s a little different than my norm, but I’ll manage. Don’t you worry about me.
Chuck was the awesome this week. As I mentioned yesterday, I watched it a day early on City TV, and then it was on again last night for the masses in the US. I am happy to report that Captain Awesome is not dead, he is in fact very alive and had his run as a spy. I don’t think we’ll be seeing that storyline again moving forward. Brandon Routh was the big guest star of the week with the bad guy guest star being Angie Harmon. She played one mean woman and had a pretty good little fight scene with Sarah.
Heartfelt thanks go out to everyone that has done anything to help with the Haiti relief effort. Whether you’ve donated a dollar or your time or anything else you’ve done something great. Thank you.
There isn’t much in the news today that really entices me. There’s the Leno vs. Conan thing and the Tiger in sex rehab story, but really, I don’t care. The Haiti relief effort is still number 1, and I’m paying attention to that. But otherwise there isn’t much.
I have noticed that the amount of emails I’ve been receiving from the TTC has increased in the last week or so. There have been more delays reported per day than I can remember in quite some time. I have no idea if it’s just a coincidence or if I’m crazy.
Time to wrap it up I think. I hope that you all rock the rest of your day.
And, like I always say, if this is the one day you stop in per week, we’ll see you next Tuesday.

Monday Morning Musings, Mobile At Work Edition
Good morning friends.
Welcome to Monday, here's hoping that you're well.
Big ups to E-ve. I think she won at Trivial Pursuit last night. But I know that she had a good time. Here's hoping that there's no hangover.
Thumbs down to the Montreal Canadiens who lost 6-2 last night in New York. They played a good first period and were winning 2-0, but then it all fell apart.
The only silver lining is that my guy Gaborik had 3 points for the Rangers.
The coffee tastes good this morning. I guess I needed it.
Watched Chuck last night. Was joyfully surprised that it was on. I don't want to spoil anything for anyone that will be watching tonight instead, but I was happy.
I'll spoil it all tomorrow!
If I had a cooking show I would want to say "Wok on with your bad self" on TV.
It's mild again today. The kind of day that you can just hang out outside and enjoy yourself. Some sunshine would be nice, but I don't wanna get picky.
Rude people are ridiculous. Unbelievable even. Oh well, too bad for them.
I think that's about for today folks. You aren't missing out on much over here.

Sunday Morning Musings, Trivial Pursuit And The Raptors Win Edition
Good day y’all.
It’s a grey and mild Sunday in Toronto, but I hope there’s some sunshine in your life wherever you are.
Big ups to E-ve as she prepares herself for Trivial Pursuit this evening. I have extreme faith in her ability to run the field with her knowledge of pretty much everything.
I’m not trying to stop anyone from playing Jeopardy, Wheel of Fortune, Trivial Pursuit or Scrabble with E-ve, but it’s a tough go if you try. I’ll stick to sports trivia and things of that ilk.
In other game news, it’s a Killer Bunnies evening in Ottawa. Good luck to everyone in the battle for the winning carrot.
Karaoke was fun last night. As I mentioned on Twitter, my 2nd song was too big for me in the end. I did too much singing along, and I blame the shot of rye for me not being able to do justice to Tim McGraw’s Live Like You Were Dyin’. The last big long note was just a little too much.
I also realized that Glee has had a huge impact because when Sweet Caroline and Don’t Stop Believin’ came on all I could think about was those damn kids doing a fantastic job with the music.
I also received my first birthday gift of the year, which was unexpected and pretty cool. A wooden baseball bat, much like the ones I had when I was a kid. It feels perfect in my hands and reminds me of days gone by.
The late night street car ride home was packed with people that must have had a great time last night because it was loud and busy.
I had a good quick visit with E-ve before I went home to change to go out last night too. We had some Tim Hortons and chit chat. I was out of it a bit from working which didn’t make me great company, but she makes me a happy dude. I’m lucky.
Sad faces as mes Canadiens lost 4-2 last night to Ottawa. It wasn’t a great effort by les boys. And it underscores the fact that Montreal scores fewer goals per game than any other team in the NHL.
Happy faces as the Toronto Raptors are minutes away from a big home win against the Dallas Mavericks. These are games that are big to win because they give us the opportunity to beat bad teams and climb the standings instead of just treading water.
Time to wrap it up for the day. It’s a short work day and we’ve got basketball, hockey and football to watch.
Have a great day.

Saturday Morning Musings, Everybody In The Pool Edition
Hey there everyone.
Happy Saturday morning to you all.
Well wishes and positive thoughts to E-ve’s mom who had a rough go last night. I hope that a new day brings better things.
And big ups to E-ve for being an amazing and helpful daughter. And also for complimenting me heartily on the cake that I made for her. It made me smile big when she said all of the nice things that she did. She’s totally the awesome.
I’m a little sad today because the TV at work is broken and there is play-off football that I will be missing. Sad faces.
Just finished up the picks for my hockey pool. I feel pretty good about them. I didn’t have a great week ending yesterday, but I beat my boss and Alex Ovechkin saved my bacon with his performance against the Maple Leafs last night.
My line-up for this week looks like this:
Forwards:
Kovalchuk, Ilya ATL
Heatley, Dany SJ
Thornton, Joe SJ
Gaborik, Marian NYR
Richards, Brad DAL
Byfuglien, Dustin CHI
Defensemen:
Robidas, Stephane DAL
Bergeron, Marc-Andre MTL
Tyutin, Fedor CBJ
Keith, Duncan CHI
Goaltenders:
Nabokov, Evgeni SJ
Smith, Mike TB
Cross your fingers for me friends.
Listening to music this morning in prep for some karaoke tonight. Am old friend is in town to see RENT and we’re gonna have a hang out and hello and turn on the microphone… I should start picking song ideas now.
I’ve got a little bit of a head ache. I hope that coffee helps. If not I may have to try something more drastic.
I’m all the way up to 4 friends on Facebook since I opened the page. Remember that you can find me there now. Smiles.
I’ve got a piece almost ready for the Longer Form Musings today. I’ve already touched on the subjust here today, so don’t be surprised when it posts and you see it. http://www.thelongformmusings.blogspot.com/
What is everyone else doing this weekend? Let me know. Share your awesome stories. Don’t be shy.
Gotta run, lots to do, well some to do, ok not a whole lot to do, but I’ll find something.
