Been one of those weeks

Lot has happened in the last few weeks.  I have been home often.  Not really traveling much.  Which is good.  However, our dog Bennie was put down 3/25.  Was not a good day in our house.  On a lighter note, I did pick up the new Ipad 2.  I think it is pretty cool.  Lots of apps to choose from.  Very handy.

Happy St. Patrick's Day

Its again that time of year when all the people that are not really Irish pretend they are.  They flock downtown to watch the parade or jam themselves in to their local watering hole and drink till they can not drink anymore.  I am sure that all the local police departments love this day.  Green Beer, green face painting, and green bagels are among the favorites for this day.  We eat and drink too much during the festivities.  Which is why I opted to go to work.  It is not because I am a party pooper but because the crowds today are not what they used to be.  Now having to take care of two babies, I do not have the desire to go out get all wrecked, then drive home. 

On a side not.  Not having any meat has not been as bad as I thought it would.  I wont say that I will feel differently later but for now I am doing OK.  Also, I have not had any alcohol.  I really do not miss it that much but then again it has only been a few days.

Vikes Win!

They beat Vermont, first round of NIT

That time of year

MAC tourney time!  Always a blast withKG and friends. 

Another Lent

Today is Ash Wednesday which means that today I have to fast and not eat any meat.  So what am I going to give up?  This Lent I decided to really challenge myself.  I wanted to give something up that was a true sacrifice.  I have decided to give up alcohol and meat.  I think I typed that correctly, yes alcohol and meat.  I will be posting more often as my cravings become more evident and struggle through the next 40 day.

Back in the Bus

Back in Columbus....wow what a day.  Drove to Sandusky, then down to Dayton, then to Columbus.  I am very tired.  Got back from Winkin Lizard, same ole thing, burgers, wings and some beer.  Glad to back at the room, trying to relax and get some sleep. 

Back at the Wolstein

Hoping the Vikings pull it off this eve.  Need to win!
