Oh hellz no!
Couple orders of business. First off, I'd like to thank everyone who reached out to me here, on twitter, the bookface, where ever, for the birthday wishes last week. It was a pretty fantastic day, and I'm happy to have shared it with all of you. Also a big thank you to our very own Barry Campbell as well as Gretchen Maslowski who goes by @EskomoKisses on the tweeter bird for your donations to my Polar Plunge on my birthday. You guys are great, thank you, thank you, thank you! It's not too late to donate folks, so click on the link if you're feeling generous.
And finally, huge shot out to the Eastview High School ladies on their huge win over Eagan in the section finals this week, earning themselves a spot in The Tourney. Both Chris and I graduated from Eastview (my graduation, many, many moons ago) and we are just pleased as punch they punched their way into The Tourney. Congratulations girls! We'll be rooting for ya!
