New Year's Tidbits

In an organizing mood New Year’s weekend, cleaning out the living room, where all the school stuff is, as well as the downstairs bedroom. Organized a bunch of giveaway stuff as well, did laundry, etc. So I was on my feet for most of the weekend, doing that stuff with the bowl games on. We went for a walk on the first, so I missed the last GT TD. The QB played well...makes you wonder why the coaches didn't play him earlier when Reggie struggled. Had he played all year Calvin might've won the Heisman.

Saban…guess you gotta go where the money is...the pressure is huge, no matter if it's the Dolphins or the Tide.

Busy at work...on December 28th I worked until 8 pm. Highly unusual, but it was the only day I worked over the 12 days of Christmas. Seems like I'm in the carrot on a stick mode...trying to stay caught up, but everyone's got stuff going on here at the beginning of the year, coupled with stuff that the year end dug up. I may try and wrangle a Houston training trip, not that I need more stuff to do. The Orlando GM told me today she recommended me for the Houston conversion.Matthew got a video camera and has been making some hilarious videos.

Hope to have the SF trip all booked in the next few days...hopefully June, but I did notice some sold out flights around Memorial Day.

Fox has made bowl games last later than ever. They used to start at 8 pm, but with Fox they put on 30 minutes of pregame. The other night I woke up on the couch and Boise State had just sent it to OT. It was 12:40 am, so I turned it off and went to bed.

Furman Bisher and Terrance Moore seem to be feeding the GT QB 'controversy' - from different angles.

The new SI has a long article about Pete Maravich...should be interesting reading. I have the Maravich autobiography, but I've only read parts of it. Just finished John Grisham's "Bleachers". Ceil rented Phantom of the Opera.

Found a pair of black Chuck Taylors yesterday...would've been great for holiday parties.
