I'm worried...

For the first time that I can ever remember I have no interest in seeing the Final Four. I'm not sure of the reason but I have no desire and don't care. I'm not sure what that's a sign of but it worries me, what else am I losing the taste for...

Tim Tebow to the Jets...who cares?! A press conference for a backup quarterback, OK, so now we celebrate mediocrity at the highest levels. What path are we on right now America. Pro athletes make millions to play a game while millions of people in this country including many women and children go hungry.

People are allowed to gun down other people and the law protects them...I ask you again what path are we on America...I think I figured out why I don't want to watch the Final Four anymore...

March Madness...

No not the basketball tournament!! I'm talking about the family version! Sydney has been battling a nasty bug and it has caused us a serious case of sleep deprivation. The weekend was rough with a bit of a break last night as the meds started to kick in. Two, three, and four hours of sleep really isn't enough for any of us.

This morning I received a tweet thanking me for my assistance during this trying family time. I'm sure those of you who follow "the twitter" saw these kind words and thought that I must be something wonderful...

Well...I am awesome and I'm glad it's been recognized! TIC of course :) The best thing about March is that it came in like a lion and will hopefully leave like a lamb. I'm gonna talk with Sydney about his rehab and possibly extending his sleep schedule till 6am :) And one last thing...GO HOOS!!

March Madness...

How about those Cavs! NCAA Tourney bound for the first time since 2007 and playing the Florida Gators. I really am happy for the Seniors on this team: Sammy, Mike, and Assane! They have had some serious ups and downs and this reward was worth the wait, of that I have no doubt!

Injuries, coaching changes, and transfers have really impacted the program during their tenure. It does appear that they have helped Coach Bennett steady the ship and the program should be on the upswing. A nice recruiting year or two and things will really be looking up.

As a side note, a certain rival Coach has been whining...I mean tweeting about our lack of a strong OOC Schedule because his team hasn't been selected for the tournament in the past several years. Well, I guess when you act with no class and shoot your mouth off repeatedly people remember it and it has a lasting impression. Passion is one thing...being an a$$ clown is another! Kids don't grow up to be an a$$ clown!

Bracket time

Will the HOOS make the field? I am nervous but optimistic! I am looking at the positive aspect if things don't go well though, I'll be able to fill out my bracket without my orange and blue glasses on...which means trouble for the rest of the people gunning for the money! ;)

What a weekend...

Friday night was eventful for the family as we took our second visit to the emergency room during the Sydney era! Four hours, several cookies and goldfish, and plenty of worried thoughts later, we left with 4 brand new stitches in Sydney's forehead. Let me tell you that nothing will cause you to sweat more than trying to hold your child and keep him calm as the doctor is applying stitches, I'll never forget it!

The staff at the ER was outstanding, and we couldn't have asked for a better environment given the circumstances. Heaven forbid you should ever need to go, but the ER at Roanoke Memorial is outstanding!

The weekend ended on a positive note, Sydney is well and showing no ill effects from the trauma. Dionne is mastering the art of homemade pizza iron chef style, and my beloved CAVS won a thriller at Maryland and are going to the big dance! So how was your weekend? :)
