This is really interesting…

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…

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:

This is really interesting…

I can’t really put my finger on it, but this picture from Portland reminds me of a sitcom, or an advertisement or something. Like when I see it, I’m shocked that I know the people in it because this feels like a photo of something esle. Does that make any sense? okay, let’s move on

Lately I’m thinking…

Joey, having a puppy is hard, keep your head up and when she falls asleep do whatever you can to not wake her up.

This is really interesting…

Speaking of dogs and peeing, Seeley pretty much goes on demand, but last night for some reason she didn’t have to go. It’s different than when they’re puppies and they have to pee otherwise they’ll go inside, if Seeley doesn’t have to go well she’ll go tomorrow. But steph wasn’t having it, she saw it as her vs. seeley so she made us stand out there for 10 minutes. At one point seeley just layed down which is her signal she definitely doesn’t have to go. Anyways steph couldn’t believe i was just going to “let seeley win”. At one point after we came inside and I explained it’s okay and she’d go tomorrow steph just said “I want seeley to pee”. Then she looked over at her lying on her bed and said “she’s so cute, i’m going to give her a treat”…

This is really interesting…

Well turns out Steph was thinking of “dances with wolves” in her head and hadn’t seen “last of the mohicans” either, which is pretty ridiculous considering how many times she made fun of me for not seeing it. On an unrelated note, I sold my final four tickets today 😦

This is really interesting…

Work is really busy,I’m pretty out of it and have no idea what to talk about so i’m just going to wing this one. Anyways I went showshoeing for the 8th and probably last time yesterday. And by snowshoeing I mean walking, because the snow level has gone down so much I didn’t even need to put them on. Oh well, Seeley went crazy like normal and it was fun

Currently watching…

Yesterday Old School was on TBS or something back to back…..so I watched it both times. “No. That’s a piece of crap. We stopped selling that six months ago. Nice gesture, though.”

This is really interesting…

One time Joey and I were skiing and went back and forth about 30 times on movie quotes. He then said “I think if we didn’t say movie quotes we wouldn’t have a single thing to talk about”. I didn’t reply to that statement, because I didn’t know what movie it was from

Lately I’m thinking…

I’m going to go off on mario kart just a little bit in the soapbox

The Soapbox:

I don’t let very many things get to me, but Mario Kart on Wii has got to be one of the most frustrating things I’ve ever dealt with. I get stressed out, and to be honest I wouldn’t be surprised if one of these days I just launch the TV over the loft railing. Another thing that bothers me besides the actually game play, is that when you quit a race it takes you all the way back to the home screen, meaning you have to select the race mode, your player, your car, and the race all over again. Listen, if I quit a race it’s because you either hit me with a spike shell 2 feet from the finish line resulting in every single computer player passing me before I can get going and finish in last, or because I’m in 8th place (from previously getting screwed over) and the last item you give me for the home stretch is a single banana, and I just want to start the race cup over, not go back and start from square one. Anyways, I beat the special cup on 150 yesterday which was my last one, so i was pretty happy about that.

Current Status…

8.9 – although the cool ranch doritos i just had didn’t really hit the spot like I was expecting them to. Here’s a picture of Steph, Seeley and I

Shout out to…

Miller for the crazy bread last night and Molly for the info about the ‘Seattle Metropolotin’ pizza magazine and to steph for buying it for me! I’m excited to read it, and then try every place in there. Just trying to give credit where credit is due

Currently watching…

Wow Duke-maryland and Kansas-kansas state on the same night, what a lineup! kind of…considering the game featuring possibly two #1 seeds in the tournament (kansas and kansas state) isn’t even on TV. It is on espn360, which Seattle gets now and I think is pretty darn sweet, but I remember when the same thing happened 2 years ago for the KU-ksu game and I was hitting refresh on my computer browser every 15 seconds. One of these days somebody should probably just pick it up – maybe the ocho?

Lately I’m thinking…

I think that Wednesdays are consistently my worst days of updates throughout the week

Lately I’m thinking…

Seeley has more toys than I do. Oh ya and I’m out of pictures

Currently watching…

Wow how stressful was last night? Kansas probably shouldn’t have won that game, I don’t even know how they scored 59 points, I only remember them making 3 shots. That followed by the worst bachelor of all time (yes that was last weeks episode, until this one aired). Ali blew it, then Jake blew it, Jake’s annoying and says the same stuff every week and out of the 2 girls who are left one lives in a complete fantasy world with dancing unicorns and the other is a tramp. I knew jake being the bachelor wasn’t a very good choice but I never thought it would get this bad. Phew, i’d like to say i feel better, but i don’t think i will until the season is over. See you next week

Lately I’m thinking…

Holzer here’s a handy little DVR tip – if you’re wating a show on DVR but then change it to a channel (either to check a score or something or in your case you forgot you were watching a show on DVR) just hit the “back” button and it takes you to the place you left off on the recorded show. You can basically flip back and forth between a live tv show and the recorded one and not miss a beat! Sorry Tanner, I know you don’t know what a DVR is and I don’t have any VCR tips for you, although I have heard that you can get rewind machines that rewind tapes much faster than the traditional VCR.

Lately I’m thinking…

This looks like it’s going to be a great week – sunshine with temps in the high 50s and maybe even up to 60. On a side note, there’s no show anywhere in the northwest (see olympics in canada)

This is really interesting…

As Mikey mentioned, sounds like the MSU-wsu game is going to be played in pullman after all instead of qwest field. Maybe a road trip to pullman was necessary anyway? At least it’s closer for you MT folks, although it’s 284 more miles for me. Is Tanner going? He doesn’t have the best of luck on CAT roadtrips, and I’d hate to fall in with the wrong crowd

This is really interesting…

The PBR 40s at Norms are $3.00 during happy hour, which goes until 7:00! “WOW, THAT’S A LOW PRICE”

This is really interesting…

There were 25 people at Seeley’s birthday yesterday

Currently reading…

The Husky Football Blog, obvs. I asked a question on the live chat today. It’s a slippery slope

The Soapbox:

I’m completely blown away by this whole X-ray process. I hurt my foot on Saturday, and 5 days later I still have no idea if i should be wearing a boot or using crutches or something. I bought Dave tickets for Saturday & Sunday (unrelated)

Shout out to…

Seeley The Dog on her 2nd (14th) birthday. She’ll be partying it up at Norms tonight if you want to come by. Seeley used to be small, and now she’s big

Lately I’m thinking…

Wow I can’t belive Dave Matthews tickets go on sale a casual 7+ months before the concert – for some reason I forgot to factor that into January 2010’s finances along with all the other tickets i bought.

Lately I’m thinking…

The 2PM Georgetown pub crawl was obviously a disaster. Everyone was in bed by 10:00 PM (me by 8:00 PM), and then everyone woke up at 3:00 AM and thought it was morning. That just meant I was hung over twice after one session of drinking, once at 3:00 AM and once when I woke up again at 8:00 AM. That’s about all i have to say about that

This is really interesting…

GREAT news on the training front – I ran 6 miles on Saturday with Seeley who easily did her best job running of all time. And now the DEVASTATING news on the training front – i’m going in for x-rays tomorrow on my foot because I can barely walk – snow joke

This is really interesting…

Steph got a new shirt, and if you’ve seen her anytime in the last 7 days, then you’ve seen it.

Currently watching…

Saw the last “Tonight Show with Conan O’brien” on Friday. First of all, he’s frickin hilarious. Second of all, NBC jacked this whole thing up so bad. I haven’t really read anything about it, but from what I can tell it seems like NBC paid 44 million to terminate Conan’s contract early, they now no longer have him on their network, he can go to a rival network in 7 months, and they don’t have a host for the tonight show. And this is all to help Leno’s ratings on a show they shouldn’t even have and nobody watches?

The Soapbox:

No more 360 degree sky-fives gone wrong until my foot is better. Nice mustache Brice

This is really interesting…

Last Thursday Steph came home and found Seeley the Dog had blue paws and a blue mouth. Turns out she ate a pen. While it’s no glass candle holder, I’m sure it must have been delicious. Rumor has it her first poo after that was even blue. Anyways it’s now tuesday and her paws are still blue.

Currently watching…

While Friday and Saturday might be the peak of fun nights during the week, Sunday and Monday have taken over for peak TV viewing. Sunday night is “Tough Love 2”, which is just excellent. Then Monday has “How I met your mother” AND “The Bachelor”. Ali, don’t blow it.

I got my hands on a “Nerf N-Strike Longshot CS-6” with two clips at work.
