Break

I'm on Thanksgiving Break until Monday. I'm happy I don't have to go to a few days of class but kind of bummed I have so much work to do. Hopefully I'll get a lot of it done over break. It's snowing today and that is not good. I plan on attempting to run the turkey trot tomorrow for tradition purposes and snow and wind are a bad combo when it comes to running. I don't think I've ran more than twice since last years turkey trot so it shall be interesting to see if I make it to the end.

In other news the pistons are 8-1 which is pretty cool. If we keep on this pace we'll finish the season at 73-9. That would be great. It's sad that one of the late 90's Chicago Bulls teams went like 72-10, that's just ridiculous. In baseball the Red Sox traded some up and coming players for a proven pitcher Josh Beckett. A solid addition in my opinion.

Well I think it's time to get some work done. I'll catch y'all later. Happy Thanksgiving!

What a Finish !!


Congrats to the Pistons on their last second heroics tonight. Richard Hamilton's jumper as time expired was quite amazing. Nice job guys. Ok goodnight everyone.

Update

My apartment now smells of clean linen not to be confused with hawaiian breeze which my sister likes to use...I'll be honest I'm just not a hawaiian breeze kinda guy, nothing against Hawaii but...their breeze is known to cause dizziness, headaches, typhoid fever, cholera, malaria, and attracts theives of indians (Ok so maybe that's just what you get when you play the very old Oregon Trail game.....and what's up with you only being allowed to take 50 pounds of meat back to the wagon? If I shoot a buffalo I want more than 50 pounds of it, geez). Anyways....back to reality....I didn't feel the need to buy Glade Plug-ins for the entire place. I strategically placed one by the door as you come into the apartment and one in my room. They had some "clean linen" powder stuff that you throw on the carpet and then vacuum, that looked interesting to me. I'll most likely buy that next and proceed to experiment.

I woke up at 6am this morning. I don't think I've been up that early since I was in Georgia. It's only 10 am and it feels like it could be 2pm to me. I had to get up to take my car into the shop to have some work done on it. Hopefully it will be all good to go for Winter.

Well happy Friday everyone and have a nice weekend !

P.S. Stay away from that Hawaiian breeze

Always Something To Do

That's one thing that's true about college, there is always something going on. Whether it be a game, going out with friends, doing homework......you're always busy. Last night a few of us went to Applebee's for half off appetizers and dollar beers. We were informed that it would be the last night for half off appetizers yet the beer deal still stands. We watched the Pistons while we were there and although I couldn't hear the sound they looked great.

Today I only had one class which didn't even last the whole time. I love it when that happens. I think I'm going to go back to my apartment and watch some golf over a nice lunch. Maybe go to Kroger's too. I went there Sunday night and bought some glade plug-in things to make my apartment smell like "clean linen" cause I really like that smell for some reason and when I got home I realized that I had only purchased the refill things you put inside the actual "Plug-in." I sure felt like a horses patoot. I guess that's the way it goes sometimes.

Tonight I think my friend Kalee is coming down for a visit. Her younger brother just started at Toledo this year so she said she'd come down and visit for a while. Also, The OC is back tonight and no I don't like the fact that I watch a prime time soap opera of sorts but that theme song sure is catchy. Anyways, I must continue on my clean linen quest. I will let you know how it turns out at a later date. Happy Thursday everyone !
