basketball surprises

watching the kansas - western kentucky game and unfortunaly, kansas needed some bad calls by the referees in the last few minutes to win... not impressed... but more surprising is georgetown getting booted by 15th seeded florida gulf coast... shocker... maybe mississippi beating wisconsin was not as much a shocker, but i was surprised... and two of my elite eight are out of the tournament, so my brackets took two big hits... they were the only hits i took today, only missing two of the sixteen games played (like yesterday), but dang, today was worse... so two of my eight paths are gone, but all four of my final four teams are still in so it could be a whole lot worse... missing 4 games out of 32 is not too bad... something like 87% or so...

and the body is recovering... arm hurts a lot but better than previous double headers and the weather influences the pain a lot as it rained through the first game and chilled down to 62 degrees and i stood around waiting for the second game for an hour as the temperature dropped and the wet clothes drew the warmth from the arm... bearing down against the men's team did not help, but no damage, just rehab pain... and again, faster recovery than last week...

i passed up on cards after softball tonight because i was wet and sweaty and achy and starving, but it was cool to get invited to a different place for more games... and another group texted and asked about playing tomorrow night... i'll decide in the morning... probably will say yes since jackson doesn't stay home on saturday nights anymore and it'll be ore fun to play with friends and listen to the ncca tournament in the background than to stay home watching the tournament by myself... the women play tomorrow...

and so now, sit back, relax, and let the sleep or meditation come :)

musical distractions

If people had visible signs or meters that told something about them, what would you want it to tell you?

dumb poll (above), smart responders

all the previous poll votes were somehow erased, so, nevermind... ironically or coincidentally or whatever, the results were very close in practical numbers to the results above shown with just three votes, if you understand the mathematics behind that extrapolative reasoning... i will probably remove the poll at some point... it is a ridiculously useless feature...

SEARCH ME

the thing is, with my tendency to babble and meander and whine and allow distraction to take the lead more often than not, even in this blog that sort of meant to merge brevity with focus like some bloggers do, searching for key words does not always lead to specific information about the subject of that key word... but... here is a start at an easy way to search for key words in this blog... use the search box at the top of the blog to search for words not listed here... if ya wanna, that is... and feel free to suggest words to add to this search shortcut section... click on the words below :)

WORK ... JOB ... MUSIC ... LOVE ... SOFTBALL ... KA ... 42 ... LOL ... LAM ... LAA ... ... ...
