Friday Dec 31

Well it's the last day of the year.  I hope everybody made it.  Speaking of making it, my beard will not be making it much longer.

In a few hours I will be running in my first ever race.  It's only 4 miles which is good because I don't think I can run much further without needing a banana creme pie blizzard.  You know I still play a decent amount of team sports and I go into every game thinking that my team can find a way to win.  So it's kinda demoralizing going into something like this run knowing that I will get smoked by pretty much everybody.  My goal is 30 minutes.

Georgetown plays tomorrow at 1pm.  So that means that they play on 1/1/11 @ 1pm.  That's a lot of 1's.  I hope Austin can start hitting a lot of 3's on the 1's tomorrow.

The Sun Bowl has long fascinated me due to the fact that it's been the only bowl game carried by CBS for a few years now.  It doesn't seem really worth it to me but whatever.  Well this year the Sun Bowl is not only on my Birthday but it includes the team that I follow in college football - ND - against an old, heated rival from my childhood - Miami.

Given how far these programs have fallen since they last met on the gridiron, I wouldn't be mad if they just aired the game from 1988.

I seriously love ND being on CBS.  I love that they haven't changed the theme music in over 20 years.  Sometimes when you get something right you should just stick with it.  Changing to change is very often a mistake.  I also love Lundquist doing the game.  Hell I'd probably get those Twilight or Harry Potter books on tape if he were reading them.

Well it only took a couple of plays but the Irish have quickly reminded me how much better my life has been since their regular season concluded at Southern Cal about a month ago.

Things are getting better.  Floyd with the TD catch.  I really hope he catches a bunch of TD's next season.  That would of course mean that he doesn't leave early.  Don't leave early Michael.

And now Brian Kelly in his infinite wisdom and going wildcat heavy.

Damn dude.  Floyd has another one.  I really hope this isn't his bon voyage party.  14-0 Irish in the 1st.

Can I just say that I gave Rocky a bath this morning and he smells great over there on the other end of the couch?  I should really give him a bath more often.  It's not so much that he usually smells bad, its that he actually smells great right now.

Ok well this is probably it from me for 2010 unless I feel like boasting about my score from the Fairfax City 4 Miler later.   Unlikely.

Peace brah
