Saturday

May 10, 2008

No catchy title or even catchy content. It’s just a normal Saturday and nothing exciting is happening today but lots on the docket for tomorrow. It’s mothers day and all the ladies are going shopping while the guys go play some golf. Then I will get on a plane for the week in Vegas at a conference for work. Honestly, it’s work so there isn’t much about it to look forward to except the 2 shows I am going to while there. However, I’ll be by myself in Vegas and how much fun can that be?

More posts next week from my hotel room to keep my sanity I’m sure!


No Muddy for my Buddy

May 9, 2008

Unfortunately last night I tweaked my calf pretty good playing hockey and there will be no way I could compete in a 7 mile endurance race I haven’t trained for. Sorry to mu Buddy in the previous pics but I guess maybe I saved our lives. There’s always next year… :(

Here is my running partner at her training finest…


2 for Tuesday part 2

May 6, 2008

Ok, so I promised 2 in the title but that doesn’t mean I have that much to say. My head is swimmy as I am detoxing from my daytime meds and I won’t have a refill until Thursday afternoon. So you’ll have to excuse any rambling. I was thinking I might do a new music post as new music is released on Tuesday but this weeks offerings are not at all impressive. I like Gavin DeGraw, but I’ll wait for the stripped version as that was better the last time he released a record. So far, this one is not as impressive. New music from Augustana came out last week, and the previews on iTunes sound great but I haven’t bought it yet. Yes, I do buy music.

My almost 4 year old is now finally fully potty trained. She decided a week ago to start and I would say she has earned a grade of an A in the process. No mishaps, backwards progress or anything else. Just perfection. Now our two year old desperately wants to join the potty party and Mrs. Hockeyman will have a GREAT story about just how desperate. I won’t steal that from you dear so you better deliver the goods.

OK, off to bed with my laptop setup next to my bed so I can watch the Mets play the Dodgers in LA.


2 for Tuesday part 1

May 6, 2008

So Saturday marks the day I will try to kill myself. I am entered in an endurance race I have trained for by drinking lots of Bud Light instead of Budweiser, fried anything, cheeseburgers, pizza, and various other goodies. Excercise never exceed my normal game of hockey once per week. I guess there will be no shame in a DNF or a 4 hour finish time as my “buddy” has trained equally as hard. We will be a humorous sight as we pass out in the Florida heat and humidity wearing our Team Inappropriate shirts.

Manic Monday

May 5, 2008

Insert catchy Bangles secondary hit from the 80’s…

I dunno if this is a real blog thing. Seems every day has a catchy phrase and theme attached to it. I’ll go with this and you can find the existing graphic that goes with it. I figured out why Monday’s are crazy for everyone and it’s because we blow off everything on Friday. It could also because we do so much laziness on the weekend or exhausting fun stuff but I’m sticking with the blow off day.

I imagine I’ll be bloggging more next week as I’ll be flying solo in Vegas all week without a penny to pinch or gamble away. I’ll grab $10, sit at the nickel slots and drink the free booze so my posts may actually make some sense under the influence. I am going to see Spamalot and Love and will write about it. I love Monty Python and I love the Beatles even more so we’ll see how they stack up to my expectations.

Adios Amigos!


One More Thing…

I don’t give a flying FUCK where Matt Lauer will be tomorrow or any day for that matter.


Thursday 13…an attempt

May 1, 2008

I like the idea of a Thursday 13 so here is my feeble attempt. This will be pure randomness, no organized thoughts at all.

  1. My hockey team lost last night. Damn.
  2. Apple products are the best in the world.
  3. Farts are funny.
  4. Daytime TV BLOWS (except live sports)
  5. Night time TV BLOWS (except Lost, the Office, and live sports)(I like Heroes too but last season was dull.)
  6. Live music in person is way better than any studio cd if the band is any good.
  7. I like funny t-shirts. I don’t often wear them but I find them funny. see Torso Pants and T-Shirt Hell
  8. I will never be as good a blogger as the misses. Her favorite number is 8.
  9. People only read this when I get linked to from number 8.
  10. I am easily distracted…see number 5….some crappy shows distract me.
  11. What number am I on?
  12. Geez, 13 things is hard when you have nothing happening.
  13. I like lurkers, but just comment and say hello once in a while ok?

Ok, so there is my first blog list. I didn’t have a topic I could find 13 things on so take the random poo that floats through my warped mind. It didn’t hurt either. Have a splendid weekend.
