Hockey.

I love it. I usually limit myself to college hockey (specifically, Clarkson hockey) and the NHL playoffs. This year, Clarkson was terrible, and I got really frustrated. But now Chicago is in the conference finals for the first time in a gazillion* years. If the games weren't already sold out, I'd drag P to one. Oh well. I'll just have to settle for the fight song, which I first found in College. My favorite part is that it goes on forever. If I owned the team, I'd still use it. And I'd make them wear leisure suit style unis, too.

David Tired

It's 11:30pm and I have to work tomorrow. I'm still up though! Why? Well, for a few reasons:

1. I'm addicted to these dumb games on Facebook (Farm Town and YoVille).
2. P is working tonight, I'm home alone, and am scared of the dark.
3. Playoff hockey has started. Well, and then I turned it to Iron Chef and now I'm hooked.

That's all, really. I hadn't posted in a while, but then, I really didn't have anything to say... Meh. I really SHOULD go to bed. But that would just mean a lot of me staring at our bedroom doorway waiting for a ghost to come in and scare the crap out of me. Before I do sign off, just one quick note on the whole "raising money with blog ads" thing. We've made twenty cents. Plane tickets, here we come!

Dear Clarkson Philanthropy Office,

My name is D, BS Chemical Engineering '01.  I'm writing to let you know that I plan never to answer your calls asking for money, so please stop calling.  I have caller ID, and you've tried to contact me something like 30 times now.  And remember last time you got me to pledge?  You had to send me three reminders before I bothered to send my check.  Who needs all that hassle?  And, as I'm sure your financial records will show, I did pay $50 (the exact amount of my incredibly late last pledge) so that I could watch Clarkson hockey games on the internets this year.  That, my friends, is all you're getting out of me.  I had a great time at Clarkson, don't get me wrong, but I'm still paying off my loans!  Give a guy a break.  As soon as my loans are repaid, I will gladly give more than my annual $50.  Oh, and if you decide to go back to FREE hockey video, I'll send my usual pledge posthaste!  

Thank you for your urgent attention to these matters,
D
