Play Ball!

Baseball is back today. A new season, a new hope of greatness. I realize I have a had a lot of sports posts lately, but that's the way it goes. Its spring. New Life!

bittersweet

WSU is done. They got beat by UNC last night. The seniors that I worked with when I was there have now played their last game. The program has come a long way, due in large part to those guys. They played hard.

how sweet it is.

WSU is in to the sweet 16! They completely dismantled the Notre Dame Fighting Irish in route to a 20 point win. If they continue to play defense like that, they will be able to compete with anybody. Go Cougs!

Lost Update

Season 2 Episode 4. So this others thing is getting crazy. And the hatch? What?! I don't know what to do with myself other than keep watching. Craziness.

time to dance!

March Madness is back, and Washington State is the 4 seed in the eastern region. They have a tough matchup against an experienced senior led squad from Winthrop and should they advance they would meet the winner of Notre Dame and George Mason (the Final Four Cinderella story from a couple years ago.) This time of year always fills me with nervous excitement. Its gonna be awesome. Go Cougs!

Draft

Last night was our fantasy baseball league draft. I'm pretty sure that Julie Oldroyd and I were the most nervous being that we logged in to the draft an hour early. That said, it was awesome. So much fun bantering back and fourth with friends about baseball. Good times.

We're out!

The infirmary is cleared out and ready for its new tenant! All of our stuff is now over in our new home and ready for us to put it in to place. It is such a relief to have all of our stuff in one place again. It kinda sucks to be living out of two homes, and it really sucks to come home from work and then get down to work again. Those days are now numbered; let the excitement ensue!

still painting...

we finished the hallway tonight. This project is taking quite a large chunk of time, but the house is starting to take a lot more shape as well. In other news I am up to the season finale of Lost season one...John Locke???

Tax Return!

Praise God.

Batter Up!

Today is the Mariners first official Spring Training game. They played a charity game against the San Diego Padres yesterday, which the Mariners won 10-3. Let the pre-season begin!

Once

Great Music. Simple story. Falling Slowly = great song. Plus, how can you not like a movie which has the main characters listed in the credits as "guy" and "girl"?

gettin' our paint on!

Tori and I (truth be told, mostly Tori; oops) are painting the abarnment. Getting some new paint on the walls will be nice and will go a long way to making it feel like our home. Pictures are to come later. As for now, we are waiting for the first coat in the kitchen to dry.

olive or sandstone?

quote of the weekend

"It's like heaven, only better; with brownies."
-anonymous junior higher at the end of the weekend dance-

the melt is on

We had a lot of snow up here. I am able to re-appreciate just how much we had because of our recent spike in temperature. The snow is melting at a pretty good rate and there is still so much! Every day is a new adventure, I just hope that enough of it sticks around for the jr. high "winter chill" (snow go) this weekend.

Groundhog Day.

I don't really care what Punxsutawney Phil has to say, there is a lot of snow up here and more on the way. That's good enough for me.

Im sick,

and have been for a while. It feels like I have a porcupine in my throught.

sitting in my livingroom...

listening to Tori administer a personality profile to Caitlin McCarthy, who is attempting to answer...

Incredible.

I've been watching this series one disc at a time for a little over a month now, whenever I get the time. Pretty powerful stuff.

wow. This is the most difficult game of Free Cell I have ever encountered. Tori stumbled upon it and neither of us have been able to conquer it. I triple dog dare the best free cellers out there to give it a go. Fare warning, it's going to take multiple attempts. Go with God friends!
