So I got home from hanging out with Caitlin, right? And I slipped in the driveway and rolled my ankle under my body. Which really sucks. It’s not broken and at worse it’s probably sprained. Lucky for me a buddy of mine is giving me a ride to poker, so that’s good. But I say it giveth because the Wings shutout the Dallas Stars earlier today. Oh well, what are you gonna do.

I also bought the Lifehacker book and I hope it will be full of productivity goodness.

In game 3 of the Western Conference Finals, Scott Niedermayer and Chris Pronger both drilled Tomas Holmstrom into the boards. Knocked the helmet off, lacernations all over his face. Niedermayer got tossed, I would not be surprised in the least if both missed game 4. Homer’s back in the game, but it doesn’t make either of the lesser of cocksucks.

That hit, however, won Lidstrom the Norris over those two, I feel.

I’m watching the Pens/Senators playoff game while killing time until the Aqua Teen Hunger Force movie, and the camera quality on Vs is awful. I mean, you can see anything because the white of the ice washes everything out. Not very good. The CBC feed isn’t bad, if you ignore the “US gov’t censor stack to keep out teh terrerist” snow.

Erin and Rico’s wedding was beautiful and I pray that they will have  a long and wonderful marriage. The only bad part of the whole wedding thing was the free bar at the reception. I had a rum and coke that had more run that it should and it was nasty bottom shelf rum, too. I drank less than a third of it and it gave me a bad headache.

It was Poker at Eric’s and I played extremely well. I won the first game, I was the chip leader when I broke the Omaha game, 2nd in the second game and third in the last game. I played really well, with hands and without hands. Like I made a move against Will with 67d, and got him to lay down top pair after the flop. I was really impressed with my play and the extra 20 bucks I made will help, too.

Today’s been a lazy day. Some cleaning, the Wings kicking some Calgary ass, and Office Space. So yeah, lazy day.

I would like to say again that Half life 2 rules, hard. Such a pretty game and the first FPS i’ve enjoyed in a while.

I got the okay from one of my profs today that as long as I got my work done and didn’t distract the rest of class he didn’t care if a) I worked ahead and b) didn’t pay attention to lecture. Which is fine by me, I’ve got the homework for the next couple of weeks done anyway.

Speaking of hard shots, I’ve got a feeling that all of the idiots are going to be gone by the end of the quarter. I mean, I’m basically a freshman all over again so that happens.  Either that or they’ll have to redo this semister, which is fine by me.

And for the record, I’ve missed four points so far. I’m well on my way to a 4.0 this quarter.

Hockey season starts tonight and the Wings first game is tomorrow. You have no idea how pysch’d I am about this.

Beyond that, I have nothing else to say. ….or do I?

My “Shooting-people-in-the-face-in-a-non-leathal-way” went well. It was kinda rainy and my aug isn’t as uber as I thought it was. I’m gonna have Doty look at it and see if he can’t figure something out. Also, my CO2 pistol is a monster. All in all, a good time, I just need to figure out someway to keep my paintball mask from fogging up all the time.

I had Eric shoot me in the leg with my pistol, ’cause I was curious as to how hard it hit. That was a mistake, ’cause I had just put a free CO2 cartridge in it. Combine that with Doty hitting me in the same exact spot with his P99, I’m gonna have quite the welt there tomorrow.

I’m in a “do absoulutely nothing” mode right now. Think I’ll probably go up to Whigville, get some beer and program in perl all night long. I’ve decided to make an effort to do more coding and geek stuff and less video games. Not because, I don’t like video games. Hell, I’m trying to play Civ3 and type this at the same time right now. It’s just that, in the long run, knowing perl and bash and how to setup an SSH tunnel will be more useful than how quickly I can pwn the Zulus and take their iron.

Speaking of Civ3. It really irates me when a city has civil disorder like 2 turns before I build a damn catherdral.

For the record, it is McAssCold in my house right now.

Continuing in the vain from yesterday, I’m going to be talking about a sports topic now, this time, hockey.

I got my issue of ESPN the Magazine today (because, somewhere down the line, I got a free subscription to it. Don’t ask me how, because I’m not sure.) Anyway, they have the Wings second in the central division behind the Preds, which is fine. The Preds are a good team and the Wings have a lot of question marks. But I’m sorry, but when we’ve got, on paper, one of the best defensives in the league and a lot of young talent like Zetterberg and Datsyuk, I’d say that’s better than anyone the Preds have got.

That being said, they have to knock the Wings off before I’ll say that they’re the best in the Central. The Wings have been the best in the central for over a decade, I think that they deserve a bit of respect for that.

But hey, what does ESPN know about hockey?

Alright people, peace.
