the waiting game

was told the plumber would be here today after 3:30 in the afternoon. we're now at the 2 hours past that time, so they have that right. but i highly doubt he's showing up after 6 pm. but shit, it's only been 5 weeks since he was supposed to last show up, what's another day or so. FUCKING RIDICULOUS.

the New York Rangers lost last night, 2-1. they did just about everything right but score more goals. i still believe they will start consistently burying their chances SOON. Rick Nash looked pretty damn good for his first game in 6 weeks. and he felt good today at practice, so hopefully the concussion is behind him now.

i did get to watch the highlights of the USA loss to Austria yesterday. why the whole world doesn't have goal line technology in 2013 is beyond me. the USA clearly got hosed on what would have been the opening goal of the game.

the 2 that went home last night on The Voice didn't really surprise me. i thought Austin was going home last week and Kat was in the bottom 3 for the second week in a row. but now, with just 8, it's going to be cutthroat from now on. my best guess is that Matthew will win it all this season. the guy is beyond talented.

the Dayton Flyers play at Georgia Tech tonight. instead of fucking with the internet and watching the game on ESPN3, i think i will just listen on the radio. i'd love for them to upset their former coach tonight but i highly doubt they will pull it off. probably a close game though, hopefully.

i'm looking forward to American Horror Story tonight. one of my favorite shows on television right now.

i've got way too many injuries to deal with this week in fantasy football. i might have to give up some players i don't want to to make sure i can have a full team for this week. not fun, especially when you really need to win both matches this week to solidify playoff positions. the fun of checking twitter accounts of beat reporters and NFL insiders will start late tonight.

been missing the same 2 cats at feeding time for the last 3 days. kind of weird. not sure if they are hiding or enjoying a siesta away from the farm. the one usually goes missing for weeks on end and then shows. the other, not so much. we should have some bad weather rolling in over the weekend. if they aren't around when that happens, i'll definitely start to think that they are gone.

that's all for me today. hope everyone is well and warm.
