Valentines Day is for the birds...

So I've really been slacking on this blogging stuff lately. To tell you the truth it's tough. It's a lot of pressure to churn out awesome blog after awesome blog. Once I start getting messages begging to me to update the blog I know it's been too long. One of the reasons I've been slacking is cause we have been playing so many games lately. Like our schedule is absurd. So whenever I get a chance to relax and do nothing, I literally do nothing. Like I barely get out of bed. But I also haven't had much to write about either so you guys haven't been missing out.

The last time I wrote we were in Alaska for an extended stay. So we were finally set to go home and we get to the airport in Seattle from Victoria, BC. We get on our plane and then they tell us there is a problem with the plane so we need to switch planes. So we grab our gear and get off and go to another plane. So we are sitting there for a half hour or so before we move, and an announcement comes on saying they are just de-icing and we'll be taking off shortly. Another twenty minutes later we hear we need to get off, while they fix some problem on the wing. De-icing my ass. We grab our gear and get off. We re-board that plane shortly after, only to have to get off again! The problem they thought they fixed wasn't. Finally, after three times of getting on and off we were able to get back on and take off. While on the plane the stewardess gets on the mic and announces "Alaskan Airlines is proud to have the Las Vegas Rangers hockey team on board." So naturally we start dying laughing cause they said Rangers instead of Wranglers. Then an older lady behind us asks why we were all laughing and her husband goes, "They're laughing because there's obviously no professional hockey team in Las Vegas!" Sweet. By the way, there has been no word of a lie stated in this paragraph. Everything I just said is 100% true.

As all of my loyal readers know, I am a huge American Idol fan. But since they changed the judges I didn't quite know if I would watch the show. I've tuned in a few times out of curiosity and I'm indifferent. Steven Tyler was ok, same with JLo. Randy is just Randy. The thing is for me though, it's not the judges that make the show for me. I enjoy watching the performances. I don't like the early auditions though cause I feel pretty bad for some of those people who actually think they are good singers. Which is why I wait for Hollywood week to tune in. This week I'll have to check out who my favorites will be. Also, one of my cousins has made it to Hollywood week, so this year American Idol gets personal! Wayne Smith, keep an eye out for him!

Another show I've started to tune into was The Bachelor...I meannn the Ultimate Fighter. No seriously. It's a good show with some real babes on it. Emily is quite the babe. If she were president, her name would be Babraham Lincoln. The guy Brad is kind of a square though. Oh well. Good entertainment. Now I should probably say something really manly to save face here and make sure everyone knows I'm straight, but I'm comfortable with myself.

The Wranglers/Rangers have been struggling as of late. The schedule, some injuries and call ups have taken a bit of a toll on the team. The weird thing is we are either still in first place or close to it in the league. Not too shabby if you ask me. We have a couple days off from games here so hopefully we can get healthy and refreshed.

Anyone else dissapointed with the Super Bowl commercials? Bud Light is usually great, but i guess they took the year off. The monkeys of CareerBuilder were classic. Best commercial by far.

The weather here has been pretty nice. Not too hot yet, but not cold, and not a cloud in the sky. Like a nice spring day. I hear the weather has been nice back home too...It's amazing how the weather can effect your mood. Waking up when it is freezing cold and raining and snowing does not to good things for your psyche. Walking out of the rink when it is 65-70 degrees and sunny does. I can't wait for pool season! Who's coming out to visit??

I thought this was funny:

Has anyone else tried this www.listentoyoutube.com? I can't believe I've been buying songs for this long.

BU lost in the first round of the Beanpot this year, and this just came in that they lost the consolation game to the Crimson of Harvard. Can't be a good time at the Dugout this week.

I feel like I'm missing a few things I wanted to talk about, but I guess if I think of them I can just write a new blog!
