We decided to get Mack. Holly was saying no the whole time but there was something about him I really like. When she said no I didn't really listen to it and kind of pressured the situation. I think he's going to be a good fit for the family and we'll just put in the work we need. She stopped at Petsmart on the way home from work and picked up all the things we need for him. Came out to 300. They're bringing him tomorrow, Saturday night. Been cleaning up the house today. Cable guy came and fixed our line. Our electrical line has come down lower since we've moved, probably in the last few weeks and the cable guy said he could cut the branches for us for 50 bucks. I'm going to call PPL and have them come out first, if they don't do it for free, I'll call him and have him do it.
Started playing with the resto druid in 2s and we did really well, climbing from about 900 to 1300 in one night. Our weakness if warrior/holy pally teams but i think if can heal my pet through bladestorm and the warrior attacking him, we definitely have a chance. He wanted to play tonight when I logged on but I was only on for a few minutes before I got a haircut and took a shower. 3s has been pissing me off because we don't have the team together and we found someone with both a rogue and unholy but we haven't played with him. Played last week just for points.
Next week all my other classes start. Not looking forward to that. Have a test in economics early next week. Have to do some studying for it because the latest chapter has been a difficult one, especially with the formulas.
Mom and Dad are off next week and they're going to come to the house. They might take us out to dinner. I wouldn't mind going out. I'd wager we're going to order some chinese or something while they're here.
Playing in the Worldwake Prerelease and win first game of first round after being down 20-1. Second round, of course get mana screwed second game. Fucking asshole had two uncommons that he got out both games, making me discard 4/5 cards each game. Bitch. So cheap. There goes my hopes of going 4-0. Hope I can win the last two rounds and end up with 4 packs. I'm interested in seeing what the new standard decks are after they're played at San Diego.
Skipped my Yoga X today. I missed a few workouts last week (rest week) but started up the new rotation this week. Bought some new protein power and some bars at Walmart. I didn't love the taste of the old powder but i'm not too fond of the taste of this one.

Weekly Update
Got a foot of snow on Wednesday. Holly shoveled the sidewalk which did help me. I shoveled the driveway and wasn't sure if they were going to plow the dirt road but thankfully they did. Jeremy played with Nate and Jagr for a while which was good for him.
This week was a break week in p90x and i slacked off with it. I missed two or three days but I'm going to start back up again with the next week. Classes are coming up and i'm not looking forward to them.
We decided that we liked Booker and applied to adopt him. We went to see him on Saturday and he didn't turn out to be everything we expected. He's a lot of work and I honestly want him but getting him isn't the right decision for the family. We're going to keep looking.
Valentines day was nice. Holly got me a nice bracelet and a Where's Waldo book that's pretty neat. I got her flowers, a stuffed dog, candle, and this lotion.
Bonnie called me at five fifteen and asked if I could ref the first two games with Kenny. I did and did ok in the games. The second game I fucked up during one period and maybe called one that shouldn't have been called but I tried. Got to play offense and felt pretty good. I scored 3, fucked up on a penalty shot and got two penalties. The first penalty might have been legit but the second one was a bad call. I was backchecking hardcore and got called for a hook. I had his stick the whole time. Joe is on the team and I'm glad although it seems like I'm going to have to play defense again when Rob and Jay and whoever else comes back. The same ref that made the bad call on me called a shot of theirs a goal which didn't go in (although I didn't see it, I was going by Tye and Kenny who were on the floor.).
Been doing Ok with my drafts. Haven't won but I've often been winning 2/3 rounds. Played in a sealed tournament the other night and didn't win any packs. I thought my deck was weak but I finished 3-3. I played the tourny winner second round and that kind of fucked me. Some guy forgot to play a land his first turn in round three and he asked me to not do anything one turn but I didn't. He said "this is a gentleman's game" and then started to curse me out. I wasn't trying to be a gentleman. Got mana fucked 4th round and lost a game I think I could've taken. Oh well.
Found that high ranked hunter with a Shammy alt to run 2s with me and then saw a resto druid spamming trade and played with him. I don't know if the Shammy got pissed but he left the team. I thought the druid hated playing with me because we went on a cold streak at the end of the first night but we played tonight and went from like 900-1300. He's a good player and I think we can do well. Having trouble with Warrior/Holy pally because warrior kills my pet. Going to try to be better with pet positioning. Played 5s today and we sucked. Venom was on the team and some other guys. I think i'd rather play with the other 5s team and I might go back to them. Was supposed to play 3s tonight but I told Sur that I wouldn't make it. The rogue didn't show up again so we're replacing him. We found a good DK so hopefully we can start playing soon. Been grinding out WG on both alts and got the druid to like 650 resil. Tried to practice arena with him the other night and am going to see if Cereb wants to play with him and if not, i'll spam trade. Guild hasn't been running much because of lack of interest and a few people quitting the game.

Watnt to start this again
Haven't written in here in forever and I'd like to start again. Been a normal few months. Still receiving unemployment. Got a few extensions. Started back at college. Took 4 class- Business Law, Accounting 1, Principles of Management, and...it's funny that I can't even remember the other class even though it's only been a few weeks. Intro to Business Organization. I aced all the classes and did pretty well in them all during the semester. I had trouble in a few Management tests, which personally i think were rigged and aced all my business organization stuff except for the final which I got something like a 60 on. But I pulled out all A's. Accounting and Business Law were at college and the others were at the university. The teachers I had in person were good, especially teh accounting teacher and I would've liked to have continued with him, but his class was in Allentown and I didn't feel like driving there. I'm taking all online courses this semester. Micro and Macro Economics, Accounting 2, English 2 and Marketing. Two of the classes have started and the others are starting on the 22nd. I haven't had to do much work in them but when the others start, i'll be busting my ass for the last few weeks of the semester. Think I'm going to attend in the summer for at least one or two courses, especially if it determines my unemployment status.
Holly's parents came for Thanksgiving and we had a decent time. We watched some football and hung out after we ate.
I did get new glasses, two near pairs in fact.
We had a nice Christmas this year. Went to mom and dad's for Xmas Eve. Chris bought me a snowboard, which was supposed to be a surprise present but I found out about it. I bought him a hookah which he wanted (and I told him about 2 weeks prior) and we all smoked tobacco on Xmas eve, even Mom and Aunt Mare. When I bought him the hookah I pointed to the one I wanted and the woman gave me this nice carrying case but with a Hookah with apples and pears all over it. I got to the car to show Holly and we decided it was in my best interest to go back and exchange it for another one. I got some wheels, an expensive hockey visor (which I've only worn once and doesn't work that well with these glasses), a hippy/biker puppet, some t shirts, warcraft game card, Razer Naga Mouse, back massager, giant's winter hat and some other stuff I can't remember.
Holly was looking on Novica and I told her that she could buy a necklace and when I questioned her about why she didn't show it to me, she gave me my Valentines Day present. I had been suspecting that she had bought me a ring (not trying to guess it but because she had bragged "I got your present already"). She gave me the present and it was this nice men's bracelet. Poppy used to wear one and I really liked it, when I didn't htink i'd ever like anything from that site. S
My hockey team didn't do too well this season and I played particularily poor, especially because of my overall fitness and me being on defense. We only won two games all season but we had some close games, especially towards the end. I have formed a friendship with Jay and speak to him on the phone once in a while. Holly and I are supposed to get together with his wife but I don't know if that's going to happen with the dog coming into the family.
We decided to get a dog after putting it off and we are in the process of adopting a puppy we saw online. Holly had watched some sad movie about dogs last week that made her think of Rambo and I told her that we should just get one. Jeremy has wanted one and I think it'll be good for the family overall. I'm even kind of excited to get him, which I didn't think would happen. She was worried about what her dad would think but fuck him. We could take Winnona but that would hurt her mom. I'd rather start fresh with a new dog anyway. It's a Bull Terrier/Pitbull mix. We've filled out the application today and are waiting to hear back from them later this week. They have to make a home visit but we'll see what happens with it.
Been trying to enroll Jeremy in a daycare/preschool but all of the places in town are booked. I'm going to call around for neighboring towns like Leighton, even though I didn't feel like making that drive.
I bought a playstation 3 after Chris bought one. We played Resident Evil until the end and haven't finished the last few bosses. The game was fun. I got COD2 when it came out and amazon sent me two copies. I've been playing warcraft way too much. I haven't enjoyed raiding in months and stopped and then started up a bit with ICC and the end of the arena season. Started getting into arena big time and am now obsessed with it. I played with Cereb at the beginning of last season. Our classes just didn't go together. Then I started playing with a Holy pally that I almost got the killing streak achievement. We did really well, like 15-4 and then he disapeared the next week. Played with a resto shammy that was a dick even though we went like 12-3. We had a half an hour game against DK/Druid and then he quit. Tried playing with another holy pally but he was fucking annoying and I didn't play particularily well at that point. Started with a rogue and we got the 'killing streak' achievement but that was at the end of the season. In 3s we were doing pretty well but the rogue shitted out on us for the last like 3 weeks of the season and we only got to 1540 before ending at 1510. We played a few games with him at the beginning of the season and then he left. We found a new rogue who is good (and a crazy crackhead) and I change to afflic and we did well. Hopefully we can get the games in with this guy because we scheduled with him twice and he didn't make it. Leveled my mage and Druid up and geared the druid feral but I suck at it. Have enough Soul Keepers shards to get a lot of resto pieces so I'm going to do that and try resto. Gearing up the mage and having jeremy grind bgs, as well as afking some of them. Spoke to a resto druid about 2s today, hopefully I can play with him tomorrow.
I started the P90x program three weeks ago. It's been difficult, especially in the beginning but I've seen some results as much as I hate working out almost every day. I'm on my rest week this week so it'll be a change of pace with cardio and yoga. Again the nutrition is going to be my problem and I must figure out to get more fat and protein so I can put on some bulk in the next phases of the program.
Watched some of the superbowl the other night but really wasn't into it much. Rangers have been a total bore the last few months and I watched them beat Jersey the other night. They got rid of Higgins and Kotalik after they weren't performing for Yokinen. We'll see what happens with them.
Chris treated us for a game and we went in September. We went to work with dad and slept in the car, went to the dinner and wasted time until it was time to leave for the city. Went to the jew deli and ESPN zone. Had a good time at ESPN zone because it was a weekday. Rangers won the game and we had a great time.
Have only been snowboarding once. Been trying to get chris to go but he bails on me everytime. I hate to go alone but I'm going to have to. We have a lot of snow incoming and I want to try to get there. The mountain is decent, not as big as they advertise and smaller than Camelback but it's decent for being 10 mins away.
We got 4 inches of snow over the weekend. The snow wasn't good for making snowmen but Jeremy and I did anyway , adding water to it. We had fun doing it.
We had a clog in the pipe to the sewer and Dale came to help. We got a lot of hair from the drains and pushed whatever the clog was into the main sewer line. The water would go down slow since we lived here and that clog was just building. Everything has been working pretty well.
Started playing magic online out of the blue and have been having fun with it. I sold some cards right before I stopped playing so I had a stockpile of tickets. I played a bunch of drafts and did ok in most of them. I've been averaging 2 packs a swiss, with a tourney win the other night and at least 2 results with just one pack. I haven't gotten any money rares except one which has been disapointing. The new set releases to magic online next week so it'll be fun to do the premier events with it. I've been waiting to do a premier but I was trying to get into a late night one so the possibility of 33 players instead of 64 could help my odds.
