My fellow countrymen, lend me your ears. . .it’s a new year, a new slate and since I bought that fancy Macbook last year I guess I should use it. This week’s Tuesday Randomness is brought to you by John Boehner’s tan, Joe Biden’s Words with Friends and Anderson Cooper’s “people won’t listen if you talk over each other” mantra. Oh yes, The State of the Union is here! I just want to be the Sergeant of Arms so I can yell, “The President of the United States!” But then again, I am a huge fan of ˆThe American President and that was one of the greatest scenes. I digress, let’s just get on with it.
- Snow, where the hell is it? I want snow, I need snow and I deserve snow, I have been good all year, I promise.
- I already miss football, it’s going to be a long off season
- At least my Preds are doing well. . . I needed it after my end of the football season collapsed in a blaze of glory
- My old man crush, Crispy (Terry Crisp, former color commentator for all of the Preds game) is still going strong. I bumped into him last fall in Whole Foods but managed to control myself. I did however stalk him at the game a couple of weeks ago and got another picture with him.
- Gnash also kissed my hand that night
- I am currently training for the Hot Chocolate 5K
- I have also learned that training in the neighborhood as opposed to hitting the treadmill at the Y is better
- I am a bit apprehensive of this race since this will only be my second race as well as my first on my own. . . I know what works and doesn’t. . . so hopefully I can hit my goal of under 45 minutes (I’m really slow)
- I finally watched The Other Woman. . .I pink puffy heart Leslie Mann, she is a rock star comedic actress
- My DVR is struggling to keep up with all of the shows I have programed to record but I will blame the football season for that
- I discovered onion jam. . . yes, ladies and gentlemen, there is such a thing. . . after a quick Google search for pastrami I discovered this little concoction and it is GOOD!
- I am still in love with DirecTV and am saving for Sunday Ticket this year after my first year with it.
- The temptation to get Center Ice is there but if I had to prioritize Sunday Ticket will always win
- The Wookster is still a spoiled mess and has now discovered the wonderfulness of laying on the vents when it gets cold
- I am jonesing for a visit to NYC and DC. .. too many places and too little money
- Santa was very good to me, I am now the proud owner of the professional grade KitchenAid Stand Mixer, it’s big, shiny and red, I call it Big Red
- The 20th anniversary of my 21st birthday is coming up soon, such memories. Kids, don’t binge drink, it isn’t worth it
- While I appreciate some of the documentaries that Michael Moore has produced, I have to say this, snipers are not cowards. Anyone who is willing to go into harms way for my right to say what I want with no guarantee of coming back in one piece is a hero.
- Did I mention I really could go for a good snow. . . .just one, preferably when I have my work laptop with me
And there you go kids, I believe the political spin doctors are still blowing hot air up the collective news medias’ tushes but it’s time for me to hit the hay. After all, I am close to the 20th anniversary of my 21st birthday. .. .
