Current Status…

Sunny friday 10! Looking forward to this weekend. I’m going to invite Locker to Nebel’s bachelor party tomorrow. Nobody knows when that is of course, but I figure we’ll have to work around Locker’s schedule anyway

This is really interesting…

I ate some raisinettes yesterday, and on the package it something about “fruit antioxidents” and my first thought was “What kind of chocolate has fruit antioxidents?”. Then I realized they were talking about the raisins which are not only fruit, they’re dried grapes which are also fruit! DOUBLE FRUIT HEALTH BOMB! (yesterday I also had cereal, milk, an apple, a snickers, pizza, chicken & jojo’s too for those keeping track at home).

Shout out to…

Seeley the dog – she has two sores on her paws that started bleeding yesterday and the vet doesn’t really know they are – so they gave us some stuff to try and i really hope it works. If I had the B Unit here Seeley and I would cruise around everywhere, obvs

Lately I’m thinking…

I’ve been trying to think of something to put here for 20 minutes – so i guess that’s what i’m thinking. That was easier than i thought! “And all this time I be going through such pain and anguish. Such hell, for nothing!”

The Soapbox:

Have a fun and safe weekend everyone!! Jakers that safe especially applies to you if you are biking

There’s a Tesla down in our lobby today for earth day. Seattle is going to be the main test city for electric cars with charging stations all over (including in our building’s parking garage). blah blah blah I just want one.

This is really interesting…

Got kicked out of the mariners game last night. Steph and I decided we didn’t want to go drink a bunch of beers there so we brought in ONE mini shot of vodka each for a sprite. Somebody spotted it with me though and gave us the boot. The 19 year old who kicked us out said something like “don’t try to come back in or it will be trespassing” but all I heard was “You guys look like you’re freezing, why don’t you go home, warm up, and finish up season 3 of weeds with Seeley on the couch”

Currently watching…

The draft tonight – holzer who do you want? I really want Spiller – a couple weeks ago they had us “reaching” to take him with the 14th pick, and then I saw one earlier this week with us taking him with the 6th pick! Anyways, we obviously need a left tackle, so I’m hoping we get Okung with the 6th pick and that Spiller somehow falls to us at 14.

Currently watching…

This video of a poor guy trying to put on his flip flops. It’s especially classic when he gets up after sitting down to put one on

The Soapbox:

Fell off the jetway again. UPDATE: as a shocker to everyone the ncaa is only expanding the tourny to 68 teams, instead of 96. That’s great news

Lately I’m thinking…

Hey what do you know it’s ‘Worst Update of the Week Wednesday’! This picture made me chuckle for a couple reasons. The motorcycles in the background, making Joey look especially ridiculous for being on a bicycle trying to tow a car. And then the fact the car says “car ramrod” and for some reason “dirty south” on the side – was that because we lived in south side bozeman? That direction always seemed like north to me. On a side note – the B Unit and it’s rims look especially polished up

Currently reading…

This is a pretty good article about Jake Locker in the New York Times.  Speaking of, I’m thinking about going to the practice on Saturday – anybody want to go?

Currently watching…

The clock – going to the mariners game tonight. I’m also watching the windows hoping it gets a little bit nicer today.

This is really interesting…

Well we’ve spent the last 3 days watching episodes of weeds on the wii…that’s pretty much it. So I asked steph what she thought about getting rid of cable for the summer, to which she replied “That’s for people that think they’re cool but really they’re not”. Uh okay. Anyways I think we’re going to do it.

The Soapbox:

Tanner, that’s the gift that keeps on giving throughout the entire year.

Lately I’m thinking…

I just went to adult prom and I’m already out of pictures – I need pictures people! I have daily deadlines to meet! I post photos on the Internet so you guys don’t have to! I’m a people person!

Lately I’m thinking…

I have summer fever. Wait, is that an actual medical term? If it is then I don’t have that, I just want it to be summer. Who’s the oldest person you guys have ever seen drink pop through a red vine? I’m going to break that record, it’s just going to take time obviously

Currently reading…

Great new “Technology Tuesday” post on steph’s blog – although she actually hasn’t posted it yet so it might not be there, but it’s pretty good and I helped with the pie chart

Shout out to…

Miss McRae for the 19 piece knife set. She’s now given me a total of 20 “blade’s”. Does that even make sense? Oh whatever you get it. HAHAHHAHHAHHAH

The Soapbox:

I may or may not be losing it. Have a great day scallywag’s!!!

Shout out to…

Prom 2010 – I had an awesome time. I somehow managed to win prom queen….I’m not sure what the means or how that happened, but I’ll take it.

Lately I’m thinking…

4-17-2010, the date of my last ever knee slide. On top of being hung over I don’t think I need a throbbing knee and ankle anymore.

Lately I’m thinking…

There should be a term for when Nebel’s previous update matches up with the current date. For example when his gadget from last week says “Monday, how about a 7” and you see it today and think there’s a chance it may be new. Or he says something like “last day of the month” and you read it 2 months later on the 31st and think it may be new

Lately I’m thinking…

This update is pretty much done for the day, tomorrow’s a whole new day, talk to you then

The Soapbox:

I had the time of my life…and I owe it all to youuuuhoooo  UPDATE:  Tanner that’s pretty cool that you caught a fish with your bare hands in the water and managed to get a picture

Well prom is tomorrow – I’m on the prom committee and we spent last night finalizing the music (dope jams) and scoped out the venue. Funny thing is I’m not making any of that stuff up. Anyways, hopefully everything goes smoother than my ‘Anything for love’ dance at the Thompsons wedding

Lately I’m thinking…

I seriously don’t have anything to talk about – i hope this doesn’t ruin my credibility with my 4-5 different readers. I don’t even have anything boring sports related. Oh yes I do, the ncaa/nba needs to change their draft rule. Kentucky is just becoming a revolving door for people playing 1 year. I say it should be a mix of baseball and football rules – you can either declare for the nba out of high school, or if you go to college you have to play at least 3 years. I should be on a committee

Shout out to…

Joey – nice job with the sit, stay and shake with the dog. I remember when we had seeley sit, stay, run up to us and shake in puppy class before they even taugh shake – the whole crowd gasped and then clapped. A year and half later whenever you say anthing, Seeley sits, tries to shake, howls and then lays down, basically running through all she’s got trying to get a treat. She definitely hit her peak as far as training goes when she was a puppy – now she’s just on her own schedule living the good life

Lately I’m thinking…

“It’s hard to soar with the eagles, when you’re surrounded by a bunch of turkeys”

Have a fun and safe weekend everyone!! Reader of the week resumes next week after I figure out if anyone even reads this thing

Here’s a picture of a killer whale demolishing a salmon in puget sound. Earlier this week a pod of killer whales apparently attacked a grey whale (which might be the one that showed up dead in west seattle today). Not really sure what that means in the grand scheme of things, but killer whales are awesome

This is really interesting…

Steph ordered a slice of pizza from piecoras last night, and since her change of diet she just ordered a “veggie slice”. So the lady asked what 3 vegetables she wanted on it, to which steph replied “Uh tomatoes…..peppers…and….that’s all I can think of”. The lady then had to name off other vegetables until Steph finally heard another one she actually liked.

This is really interesting…

(not really, i mean kind of, i’m mostly just trying to fill in space here) this new feature on photoshop (click here). It’s actually crazy how that works (the thing with the tree at the end especially). They could literally take mona out of the mona lisa if they wanted i bet

This is really interesting…

I’ve been in a meeting all afternoon and am trying to update this really quick so sorry, as I am almost everyday, for the quality.

The Soapbox:

I’m going to via tribunali with Steph and Seeley for happy hour today so i’ve got that going for me

This picture doesn’t have anything to do with anything, but I like it and it’s why not wednesday and for some reason it just seems to work.  Thanks Nebel

Currently watching…

Speaking of unicycles (kind of, that was yesterday’s picture) click here for basically a bar stool on wheels (you don’t need sound, or at least I haven’t used it yet). How fun would these be for around the gaming table?

This is really interesting…

Well for those of you who feel like you don’t get quite enough Seeley material here at Blade America…..Steph updated her blog, the Daily Issue, with some iPhone pictures

This is really interesting…

Joe I also had tacos last night – I had steak tacos while steph had a veggie tofu bean bar or something. She’s decided for about the 5th time she’s going to be a vegetarian (last time it ended when she ate beef tacos and then realized that vegetarians don’t do that). Personally I give it 6 more days

The Soapbox:

“I was there. Yeah, it was called the ’80s. Ford was President, Nixon was in the White House and FDR was running this country into the ground. I was bummin’ in a hole-in-a-wall town in what is now called Utah”

I just had one of the 5 best iced grande chais of my life this morning so I’m pretty hyper. Hype Hype Hooray….ho….hey….ho. On a side note I rode Nebel’s unicycle at perkins place once……once

Lately I’m thinking…

Well Mariners opening day was a success….for everyone besides the mariners. They had 2 hits on the day but honestly it felt more like 0. We should get Albert Pujols, he’s good. The Mariners have 3 home runs and 19 RBIs this year – albert has 5 and 14. Lock it up Jacky Z!

Currently watching…

Did you guys see this video of Jon Brockman dunking in practice??. Both guys are making it look pretty easy. I don’t even remember Brockman dunking in college, he would just get the ball down low, go around his guy and….lay it up. Not even a backboard slap

Shout out to…

Joey – that’s a great joke today, I copied it to the soapbox below. Oh and by the way, when are you going to tell us what the three thruths were? Our friendship is basically on the line. Thanks!

The Soapbox:

Q: What is Irish and begins to come out in the spring?….. A: Patty O’Furniture!

The twins are having their home opener right now at brand new “target field”. I’m not even kidding, sitting in the front row right behind home plate is a DOG with a target symbol around his left eye. Great seats, that’s a lucky dog (get it). Speaking of dogs (nice transition) here’s a picture of seeley sleeping on my shoulder

This is really interesting…

The good news I bought new skis today. The bad news is I had to pay for them with money. The other bad news is it was kind of anti-climatic because I can’t pick them up until this weekend. The other bad news is it’s even more anti-climatic because I can’t use them until next year…but I’m still really excited!

This is really interesting…

I’ve heard “bad romance” by lady gaga about 30 times on the radio, and everytime I’ve cranked up the volume pretty loud. I just realized today though that everytime I do that, the back window is usually open for seeley.

This is really interesting…

You can now stream instant netflix movies through a wii! THAT IS AWESOME

The Soapbox:

Opening day at Safeco! Only 1 more hour to go. Tanner I agree, I’ve never rooted for Phil before but listening talk about his wife and kids the whole time after Tiger’s whole deal changed my mind – that shot through the trees was big time too. Nebed thanks for the update (I sometimes mix up ‘d’ and ‘l’)
