Shout out to…

Stephanie Klitz on her birthday!! Sorry you had to work on your big day…and give me a ride to work on your big day, but i appreciate it. I hope you have a wondeful day and I love you!

This is really interesting…

Fun little dental tip that i’m not quite sure mrs. thompson would sign off on – last night steph flossed her teeth in literally 8 seconds, then said “I have a new method, you just do it as fast as you can. You might not get every tooth….” that’s when I just rolled me eyes and started walking away. She never finished her sentence, but i figured i’d heard enough of this groundbreaking idea

Lately I’m thinking…

What a great weekend – Kells was a blast on Friday, great UW game on saturday to finish the season with 2 big wins, I got stacias pizza for dinner where they still remembered my name and then some extreme snowshoeing action with skeelo, morgan, steph, and seeley on sunday. I mean the seahawks even won yesterday. Too bad Montana State wasn’t still playing or it could have been the trifecta! On a side note, the bobcats hardly ever lose playoff games….

This is really interesting…

The BCS is lame

The Soapbox:

Pretty busy day today so not the best update, better luck next time

Shout out to…

The new Reader of the Week……Pat Hopps! You’ve heard of the most interesting man in the world? Well Pat’s probably one of the most fascinating. Pat is married to Katie and is expecting a baby soon! He was last seen roaming the UW sideline wearing plaid shorts in the middle of a chilly october game. Apologies to all the readers for the abrupt change from a victorias secret model to what looks like an under-dressed Pat at a formal get together…nice bib snow pants. Enjoy your cocktail and fame Pat!

Currently watching…

This video is pretty funny – click here to see it. Apparently florida state makes a habit of having their O-linemen remain still in order to draw offside flags. It looks like this guy just fell asleep.

This is really interesting…

Well oregon won, it was a great game to watch. Have fun demolishing ohio state in the rose bowl. I’m just sad we’re going to miss out on all the story lines that would have come from OSU playing OSU….can you imagine!!? Also mini shout out to oregon for actually wearing their school colors during a football game, even though it took semi-throw back jerseys to do it.

Lately I’m thinking…

My snow joke training is going great so far – i haven’t had to leave the couch.

The Soapbox:

Have a fun and safe weekend everyone!!! See you at Kells if you’re in Seattle

Lately I’m thinking…

I don’t have a picture for today, so i had to settle for this one, sorry.

Current Status…

How about a 10! Blind Pilot was SUPER good last night, I was able to sleep in a little bit this morning, then got a peppermint mocha at starbucks which is easily the closest thing to actual coffee I get, so I was pretty happy about that. I felt way more official walking around with a “hot drink” cup from starbucks as opposed to my iced chai cup. Business. I also got free chiptole for lunch and it was DElicious. I took some work guys who didn’t know about the free offer today, and then they also gave us 4 additional burritos to take back to the office, so basically i’m killing it here today. Good call molly/ollie

Shout out to…

The Oregon State Beavers! Here’s the deal, I dont’ care for either oregon school, although it is cool for them that their rivalry game is for the rose bowl and it should be a great game. From my perspective though the fans (besides friends) from oregon state are way easier to handle then the fans from oregon. And I’m rooting for Brett to have fun at the game, but I really can’t think of scenario where i would root for the ducks. Maybe if they played the griz or something, but in that case I think I would just cheer on a natural disaster. On a side note, are they even rivals? I swear every other car i see in oregon has both a duck flag and beaver flag on it – it’s the strangest thing i’ve ever seen.

This is really interesting…

Down the street from us there’s this “woodworking” store that sells hobby stuff for woodworking or something. For the last couple months they’ve had about 8 giant signs all over the building (almost overlapping each other) that all say “giant sale!!”. A) If you’re always having a giant blowout sale nobody is going to take you seriously and B) maybe it would be easier to just not sell woodworking products in 2009

The Soapbox:

Jokebox: Here’s a couple tiger wood jokes from Dan Buri: The police asked Tiger’s wife how many times she hit him. “I don’t know exactly…put me down for a 5.” ZING – Phil Mickelson contacted Tiger’s wife to pick up tips on how to beat Tiger. ZING – Tiger Woods owns lots of expensive cars. Now he has a hole in one. ZING – Q: What’s the difference between a car and a golf ball? A: Tiger can drive a ball 400 yards. ZINGGGGGGG

This is really interesting…

I traded the van for it straight up. I can get 70 miles to the gallon on this hog

This is really interesting…

Quite the lineup starting today: Blind Pilot concert tonight, watching husky bball and civil war (more on that in the next edition) tomorrow, Kells friday night, husky game saturday and maybe snowshoeing on sunday? In unrelated news, I feel like Wednesdays are usually pretty slow for my gadget content, sorry

This is really interesting…

Joey, I haven’t had a chance to watch the victorias secret fashion show yet, but I will. Unforunately I went to bed at 10:00 PM! last night so it was past my bedtime. I don’t mind mens Uggs as long as A) they’re less than $6.95 and B) you wear them in the house or to go get the paper. I’m guessing in most cases neither of those apply.

Currently watching…

Modern Family. It took me a couple episodes to get into it but it’s a funny show. I recommend watching it whatever night it’s on

The Soapbox:

“Well, that’s just great. You hear that, Ed? Bears. Now you’re putting the whole station in jeopardy.”

This is really interesting…

We got the Christmas tree up last night! Looks like I accidentally strung lights up on stephanie too – wow, nice pajamas. I’d say this picture was actually taken a little premature of the jump we were going for. Click here to see someone else pretty darn excited about Christmas

This is really interesting…

Speaking of Steph, we were playing apples to apples at her house over the weekend and the green card was “delightful”. Steph was the one picking that round, and discarded “boyfriend” first as the worst card. Wow, talk about a slap in the face. By the end of the game I felt better though, it turns out she’s just really bad at picking winning cards. Next time around she chose the “ozone layer” as the winner over “michael jackson” for “fake”. Everyone around the table just got up and left.

This is really interesting…

Heather is currently with my Aunt Donna in Texas, who I got a call from at 5:30 AM this morning!! Apparently they forgot the west coast is 2 hours behind? I mean even without that knowledge bomb it was too early, I don’t get up until 7:45 – 8:00. What makes it even more confusing is my ring is the same sound as my alarm, so I thought I had to get up and start my day in the middle of the night. And to top it all off, when i checked the voicemail at lunch, this is what it said (to song, with heather laughing in the background): “Good morning, good morning, how are you, this morning? Good morning, good morning, to you”. Simply Stunning

Lately I’m thinking…

I’m going to go off on “Uggs” for a minute, i feel like i’ve been holding it in and need to get it out. See the soapbox for more

The Soapbox:

I don’t know a single guy who likes Uggs. I don’t even know someone who knows someone who knows a guy who likes Uggs. They’re slippers, plain and simple, and somehow girls get away with wearing them out everywhere. I mean I don’t care if you wear slippers out, but don’t wear slippers out and pretend along with every other girl in the world that they’re fashionable and not actually ‘slippers’. You look silly. This weekend steph told me “Uggs came back”. Uhhhh A) they were never here so B) they never left, which means C) They never came back. She also claimed one day that girls just dress for other girls so that’s why they don’t care if guys don’t like Uggs. does that mean girls in the bars wore low tops for other girls? nope. Ugghhhs. Yep, i feel better. CATS!
