Saturday Evening Post

[cmk418]

It is so nice to be able to write this in the comfort of my own apartment. I've spent the better part of the day catching up on things that I haven't been able to read in the office. And yes, I'll be back to posting like a maniac soon enough. Possibly even later tonight.

Got the Stanley Cup finals game in the background. I'm rooting for Ottawa today basically since I want to see a seven-game series (no matter the outcome). They've got a period and a half to turn it around. By the way, I watched the first game on Versus when I was in St. Louis and the play-by-play guys weren't too bad. And they have the most articulate female broadcaster I've seen in ages. Much better than the eye-candy that was on ABC last season. I think what impressed me most was the lack of cliches. Now I've got to deal with NBC. Guess I'll just mute Brett Hull during the intermission.

And if anybody can explain to me why FOX feels it necessary to show every Yankees-Red Sox series (I swear they seem to have played six Saturdays this season already) in markets that really couldn't care less about the Yankees-Red Sox, I'd love to know.

Ottawa just scored. Nearly disallowed. I wonder if Brett Hull will have anything to say about that between periods. Maybe I shouldn't mute him after all. Extra bonus points to anyone who understands what I'm referring to with that comment.

Congrats on the new and improved interwebz. I have to say, I'm a huge fan of sitting in my bed to do my reading and writing.

I'm watching/listening/almost paying attention to the game too. But I get it courtesy of CBC, which means no Brett Hull. Gotta say, that works for me. He has always irritated me.

Hmm, wonder if there are any Buffalo fans watching and cheering for the Ducks? (So, do I get my bonus points now?)

Yeah, you do. I turned off the intermission as soon as Hull started calling it a "questionable goal". Saw the win though. Very good.

Interwebz? Have you seen "Blades of Glory"? That comment just reminded me of it.

Will be sending you something shortly (like within the next five minutes) to take a look at.

Haven't seen Blades of Glory. Likely won't, even though the premise has the potential to amuse me. Will Ferrell creeps me out.

And send me stuff, please! I'm tired and cranky and we have about 100% humidity here right now. Too blah to write, and nothing good to read. Waaaaah, I whine.

I've got two more parts completed (mostly filler, but they set up the world). And if you're really really desperate you can check out my crackfic at hardtime100

100% humidity is awful. I didn't notice much of that (but everybody else was complaining) when I was in St. Louis until the last day - then it was miserable.
