who did you draft?

lunch today was lumpia, pansit and rice.

a -- they knew who Andre the Giant was, so they couldn't be too young.
b -- I'm guessing they were American... the draft was through the interwebs.
c -- They were my younger brother's friends from college.

I picked Janikowski for my kicker... that's all I remember.

That food looks good. There was a Filipino place up the street near me but they moved closer to Springfield.

3.5 days old. still not sleeping thru the night! unbelievable the nerve of this kid!
meconium gone! YAY! but now 12 diapers instead of 3. BOO!

goin to play b-ball now and tennis tomorrow.
this week is going MUCH easier than i ever thought.
prolly when everyone stops visiting and bringing food and
helping with chores and its dark and cold outside i will not
be as thrilled.. but so far... this is CAKE! <woot>

i like holding my little 6lb football while watching tv or listening
to music. too bad they have to grow up. sigh.

topaz from your vantage point you must not have seen my 10 double faults. yes 10 in a 2 set dubs match.

zap/sobad -- i feel like i'm missing out on some awesome joke. but that joke is in martian.

cb -- i had probably 6 big chunks of goat plus the bone and tendons. so probably not huge portions. but they do have a well priced lunch buffet during the week and weekend. i didn't go last night but tonight it's on!

I have a 2pm AA meeting tomorrow.

I haven't been inside Yates in ages.

They removed the roof and replaced it with a bubble? Talk about economic crisis and bleeding hoya blue...

I heard comic con is this weekend at balt. anyone going?

[The_Question]

So I see nothing really had changed around here, still talking about food as always!

Recently bought this 90's collectible car as a daily driver...



Any meet going on?

[coolblue123]

Speaking of food. Co-workers and I went to Rosa Mexicano. They continued Restaurant Week:






sorry for the cloudy pics. Phone Camera Lens was alittle dirty.

[Topaz]

Oh TM. Thanks for the encouraging fist pumps. We turned it around but a little too late. Lost 10-7 in the tb. My foot is totally farked.

[TheJRK]

Get kneed (by accident) in the eye at practice last night = fail.

Get home and see Cowboys are winning = win.

Should have drafted Ogltree = fail.

Drafted Demarco Murray = win.

Not too bad.

Sup - Do you want me to send you some of my Cowboys sweat bands? I have a lot.

[tennismonkey]

topaz -- sorry you couldn't pull out the W last night. your partner hit just about everything hard. they didn't always go in, but she hit with authority. i like her moxy. i need to learn to swing away with gusto.

JRK -- i didn't know you were a cowboys fan. i thought all this time you had good taste. it's almost as disappointing as googling andre the giant yesterday to see what he's been up to and finding out he died like 20 years ago.

sobad -- the mister two is a fun car to drive. i'm afraid to google the MR2 because i'm pretty sure that also died like 20 years ago.

CB -- that mexican food looks yum. they seem to like throwing around that sour cream though. went back to my curry kingdom. had their tikki misala and butter chicken. it was yum. i'm going to do my best to make sure that place stays around. my neighbors right next door are indian so i'm considering knocking on their door and making it worth their while to make me awesome food and leave it at my front door.

Yeah, I come from a Navy family.

Grandfather & Father were Navy (and so was I) --> Roger Staubach was Navy --> went to the Cowboys --> family moved from Philippines to here and decided to cheer for Cowboys --> I was born here and was brainwashed into being a Cowboys fan. My mom used to dress me up as a Cowboy (hat, guns, assless chaps, etc.) for every game. She would dress my sister up as a Cowboys cheerleader. My little brother was dressed up as an Indian (Redskin) and I would beat him mercilessly.

[tennismonkey]

JRK -- don't make it seem that being a cowboys fan is a navy thing. my grandfather was a master chief electrician in the navy, my dad was a seabee in the navy and i was an armed forces broadcaster in the navy. i root for the redskins because it keeps me humble and grounded - a lot like the redskins offense for the past 20 years.

i believe xisbum is also ex-navy. he probably roots for the chiefs or rams.

Heh heh...yeah she played a year of D1 before she had to quit and have surgery on her elbow. Self rated 4.0, played a year, got bumped to 3.5 where she was stuck for a while, then moved back up to 4.0, did NOT get bumped last year (woot woot) and thus ended up as Downs' mixed partner. Hahaha!

We were both off last night, which is a recipe for potential disaster. Its somewhat impressive that we didn't lose by more!

it's pretty small. you may be asked to sit on a stranger's lap or eat outside on the curb.

also i think the london's are hypnotic. i've had 2 matches and 1 practice session and i have not yet tested out your awesome string jobs on the mfil 300's. i am literally unable to put the london down. i keep one by my bed and hold it to fall asleep. true story.

I'm just providing background on why I'm a Cowboys fan. I lot of people ask me "Why are you a Cowboys fan if you're from Hawaii?" I usually reply "Because this is America motherf***er!" and kick them in the junk.

I guess it's called crazy monkey love?
If you like the London, you have to try the NYC. I was watching fed match with it last night. Wifey is officially calling the stick the mistress of the house.

[coolblue123]

Just re-found a new love for sardines.
My fav brand:

Was so surprised that Costco was selling. Any other brand I should try?

[datsveryinterestin]

nice one Monkey! humble and grounded like the DC tribal honorary team with name i cannot get myself to say. id be all about this team if they had the chutzpah to realize the name is totally racist. just go back to the arrow on the helmet too. geez. i think they are wearing awesome retro unis for a few games this season that is what they should always wear. but i guess "true fans" would disagree with me. bah. maybe i just should be a Falcons fan cuz i like their colors.

madden 13 reviews anyone? i just want to play as RG3 but most reviews say the game sort of suxors. 60bucks too.. bah. ill just keep shooting on BF3 or sumn i guess

was going to play tennis today but then it rained. phew. i was worried id have to dust off my racquets and embarrass myself. saved for another day.

have i mentioned i make the BEST lasagna? glad i made 2 of them while jwoww was beginning to moan in pain. keeping us well fed for weeks prolly! dunno why it tastes so good but i did splurge and by some fancy sauce for the special occasion.

looks like i get baby duty from 5-8am which is totally NOT my normal waking hours but dealing with is ok for now. i just hold the baby and play different songs on spotify and see which ones she likes.
all i can say is thank goodness for swaddleme blankets.
i even wore the bjorn this morning while i did some chores... but drinking hot coffee while wearing bjorn is recipe for disaster! dont worry, i figured it out before causing 3rd degree burns on little baby!

guess its back to bed or sumthin.. l8rz
