And Now I Got Nothing

bunchofgrapesIt's too bad Russia never showed up for the game with Canada. I had high hopes for a good game but that was pathetic. I blame the whole team but the Russian coach gave the game away.
Hockey is a team game and while most of these guys don't play together regularly, at least Canada skated like a team. And they could pass. Russia on the other hand looked completely disjointed and most of their passes either didn't reach their target or went to the other team. The Russian goaltending was even worse. Sure, a goalie can't do it all himself but Nabokov gave away at least three goals. And the Russian coach should be sent to Siberia (yeah, yeah, old cliche) for not pulling him sooner. If he'd pulled Nabokov at the beginning of the second period, it probably would have been a much closer game. The Russians still would have lost though. They weren't moving their feet enough. They quit skating and were just standing around for most of the first period. They paid for it. Obviously their coach didn't get them prepared for this game.
I honestly don't care who wins gold as long as it isn't Canada. But I wouldn't mind seeing USA vs. Canada again except that I don't want Canada to medal. And Dan Boyle needed to be ejected for slew footing Semin. That's about as dirty a play as you can make. I'll be glad when NHL hockey resumes. I miss my Chipotle and a game nights.
I love the song in that Kia commercial--the one with the toys that come to life and get a life.
Sometime over the last two months my cat, Harry, became a serious lap cat. I can't sit down now without him in my lap or bugging me to pay attention to him so he can get in my lap. He's lying across my lap right now as I type. Don't get me wrong, I love it. But maybe not every time I sit down.
I love how they show advisories on the weather map. They highlight all the counties involved. Like the snow/rain/wintry mix is going to come to the county line and stop.
I've been trying to find a bottle of Choya Ume Blanc sake to ship to my sister for her birthday. This stuff is OMG! good. So far, I'm not having a problem finding it but geez, the shipping is more than the sake.
Killer whale kills a trainer at Sea World in Orlando. Hello, people, it's a killer whale! When you confine them in a pen and make them do tricks, they eventually get pissed off.
Uninstalled ad blocker and surprise! I can preview and post to LJ again.
I think the Cowboys on The Amazing Race are my favorites this season. Those two guys are hilarious! Oh my gravy! I feel like they passed over a lot better singers on Idol this season because most of the ones that made it are not good. Maybe it's just first show jitters but no one wow'd me. Still, there are a few I do like and I love Andrew Garcia. And I don't care what anyone says, I could look at Simon all day. Also, I'm actually looking forward to an NBC show: Parenthood. I loved the movie so I hope this is as good.
Anyone know what happened to![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
alice_day? I hate when people fall off the map. Makes me worry about them. Plus, I really miss her fics.
My cat, Tucker, is a snotty mess. He sounds all congested, he sits around and makes noises like he's trying to blow boogers out his nose, and his sneezes could wake the dead. But he's eating and drinking and being sociable and the vet says those are good signs. Too bad they don't make the Neti pot for kitties. Of course, I don't think I want to be the one to try to get him to tilt his head just so...
