So much to catch up on.

Good day all!  I apologize for not getting more blogging done, but the combination of the "snowpocalypse" and the Christmas holiday got me out of my routine.  I have a few things to complain about to start:

1. To the coworker who dropped a deuce and neglected to flush this morining, I'd like to thank you for ruining my hot chocolate.

2. We have four or five one hour visitor spots right outside the door of our office for visitors.  Why do employees think it's OK to park there?  There are some cars that are there every day.  Seriously, park in the lot and walk like the rest of us.  You're not that important.

Ahhhh, now I feel better, on to the good stuff.   I've finally recovered from whatever I did to myself shoveling out from the "snowpocalypse".  I'm slowly coming to terms with the fact that I don't heal nearly as well as I did even five years ago. It sucks.  Why can't I just be bionic?  The remains of the snow are almost gone...our light up flamingos are now free of their white cave.  

Christmas was nice. I could have done without having to set up a wireless network on Saturday night, but I guess that goes with the territory when you are techincal.  The funny part was the hour and a half  I spent trying to make a USB Wireless G adapter work with a Windows 98 machine. Needless to say I lost that battle.

I got to see two Caps games over the holiday.  We beat up on Buffalo pretty soundly, and then let Carolina get their second(seriously) road win of the year in our building last night.   Our fans once again showed their class and deep hockey knowledge by blaming everything bad that happened to us on the referee.  There were a few questionable calls, but you cant blame "playing like crap" on the ref.    I get back on the ice this weekend.  I'm both looking forward to it and dreading it at the same time.  Ive been off skates almost two full weeks.  This is going to hurt.  

If I dont talk to you before, have a happy and safe New Years Eve, and a Happy 2010!

Last day of the "Best of" and PANIC!!!

Best seats to a sporting event: Second row behind Marty Broduer to see the Caps and Devils
Best Personal Acheivement:  Scoring a Hat Trick in my first game with the Mutts.
Best Movie:  The Hangover


It's going to snow tonight, and all day tomorrow.  The weather guru's are calling for a storm of "historic" proportion. There is one computer model that is predicting a crippling 20+ inches of snow.  I'm so excited.  We haven't had a good foot plus of snow in 6 or 7 years, and I'm ready.  I have The Hangover and Eagle Eye on Blu-Ray, I'm getting a new pair of boots tonight, and lots of wood for the fireplace.  The only thing I don't have is a sled, or someplace to ride it.  I'll work on that.   It's been a lot of fun today at work trolling around the internet.  Carey got to experience the panic first hand as she had to go to the grocery store to pickup a prescription this morning.  I wish she would have sent me a pic, that would have been awesome. My Virginia friends and I used to make jokes about abandoning our cars in the travel lanes of the Capital Beltway. I bet that will happen tomorrow.     I'll post some pics as we go through the day tomorrow.  Enjoy!
