Collected Thoughts

I'm very sad my weekend is almost over. It's been very busy and there was very little goofing off time.

Yesterday was the noon game. I hate noon game's seriously fuck with your day. First I went and picked up the monitor. It's big! It's kinda ugly! It's mine. omigod! It's so much easier to be online. I don't have to keep adjusting the text size or over riding lj styles to read stuff!

The game was hot, we forgot sun block and dad spent most of the first quarter going to get baseball caps. My arms and back of my neck are burned but I've been heavily applying aloe. The game experience was much better than last time. NO assholes! We got there super early and there was guy who looked about my age sitting on the end, he had one arm in a sling and one of those canes with the four feet. He's home from Iraq, injured. His friend came down and they explained the situation their tickets were 20 rows up and he couldn't walk that far. Could he sit here? I said yes, I'd make sure he had a place. It all worked out okay. The guy was nice, and I ended up sitting behind him.

The game was....the defense was so flat. Wake kept running the same plays and the defense couldn't do anything.

After the game Dad took me home, I cleaned up a bit, went to get stuff for dinner and went to his place for hockey! rematch of the Bolts and Panthers but @ tampa. The goal tending was outstanding, there were some great saves. The puck was a little bouncy but not like it was. There were plenty of plenties called, most of it new stuff I guess the guys aren't used to. Kubina picked up one for flipping the puck over the glass, he did that Friday night as well. That's a rule change.

There was one sorta fight, Pratt got slammed against the boards, but the refs didn't call it, and then Prat and DiMiao (?) kinda went after the guy. Not a fight, more of a scrum. Finally Tampa scored! It was a sweet goal, right at the beginning of the period. Freddie Modin ended his time in the box, came out just as the puck went past one of the Panthers, he had a break away and faked Luongo by pulling his arm back for a slap shot, then stopping and getting the puck just under Luongo's arm.

They won! who!

Today I went over to Mom's and we Clean Sweep-ed her guest room. We didn't get to it all, but we took a bunch of stuff to Goodwill and we have some things that are too nice, but we aren't sure what we are going to do with them. She's got tons of gift bags, wrapping paper, ribbons, etc I told her she's not allowed to buy any until she uses that all up. But the closet was mostly cleaned out and now there's space for when we hit The Room (aka the junk room, you can barely open the door). Then we went to lunch and hit my place. Mom picked upa book case for me at a garage sale adn she was going to paint it before giving it to me, but because of the influx of books I really needed it. I actually ended up with a box of fantasy stuff I'm going to trade in or something. It's the DragonLance and Peirs Anthony books.

But I have another book shelf, almost full of books and my house looks more like home. Mom said I have too many books, I told her there is no such thing! I'm thinking of making that shelf all my unread books, it's right by the recliner and prefect for reading.

This weekend I'm also about to finish Starsky and Hutch Season 1 disc 1. I like the show! It's kind of, definitly of a different era. I've lost count of how many doors they've knocked down and bad guys they've started fights with. They just bust in and beat up the henchmen to get to the main guy.

And I went to the library. Mostly returned stuff, updated my voter's registation info. Got three dvs: SEx and chains (I think that's right), The Cuckoo, and a Veronica Lake movie.
