Excited

So I'm excited. I've had friends visit the past few weekends, the Flyers are in the Stanley Cup finals, my hockey team isn't in last place and I feel that I'm at least contributing. We had the "Battle for Last Place" last Thursday and we won 10-2. I guess that's an accomplishment, seeing as how I believe the other team decided to go drinkin before they arrived at the game. I don't think that that is the most effective pre-game activity. I hope you will join me in viewing your television Tonight (Saturday), 8 pm NBC. The Flyers square off against the Chicago Blackhawks in game 1 of the fight for Lord Stanley's Cup.

I'm also excited about the World Cup in June. I know what you're thinking, "There is no way Scott likes soccer." I remember being in Italy for a World Cup and how excited Italians were. It truly is a worldwide thing. And soccer is fun to watch. I just hate the diving. Diving is for sissies.

Work is going well, I can't believe I'm one month away from taking the first of my 8 hour boards. I have enjoyed school but I am looking forward to not reading all day. I haven't seen a plant since about a year ago.

In other news, Gabby just hit 15,000 miles! It was a big time doing that while driving to work at 630 am. I'm in the midst of the 15,000 mile overhaul which consists of replacing the wiper blades, air filters, and cabin air filter, lubricating the door hinges/latches, and a general inspection.

playoffs?

The hockey playoffs have begun with Philly winning the first round. My annual playoff beard is in full swing and I hope to keep it through May as the Flyers pursue Lord Stanley's Cup. So up until last Sunday, my hockey team was 0-7. Terrible. As you may know, I'm not the most graceful on skates and scoring is a once-a-season type of event for me. Well, we won our first game last Sunday 6-2 and somehow the stars aligned and I had a hat trick. I was stoked. The game was at 10:00 pm on Sunday and I was so excited I couldn't wind down to sleep until 1 am. Totally worth it.

The garden is coming along well with Roma and Better Boy tomatoes, squash, green peppers, rosemary, basil, habanero and jalepeno peppers. I'll have pictures next week along with a good work story. I hope you are doing well.
