Break time!

Semester breaks are awesome. Three weeks with no classes.

Grades are in for the semester just ended...I got A's in both classes, and maintain a 4.0 GPA for grad school so far. Yeah, I know it doesn't make a whole lot of difference, but it's a goal I've set.

Tomorrow night is Game 1 of the Western Conference finals, Wings vs. Stars. It looks to be a lot more difficult than the ice-wiping they gave the Avs. Still, I think they'll pull it out and go to the Cup final. Johan Franzen just might win it for them single-handed.

MTV HD is playing "This Is Spinal Tap" right now. What a totally classic movie. It just never gets old.

Busy week. Oh, and Happy Birthday to me.

Wow, been busy this week (or two). Finished up research papers for both classes. I got one back, with a grade of 93.4%, not bad. Haven't gotten a grade for the other one, but I expect it'll be the same or higher, because it was a better paper.

The Wings' second-round matchup against the Avalanche is looking pretty lopsided, with the Wings up 3 games to none. They could wrap it up tonight, but that would be quite a chore since the Avs will be playing pretty hard trying to stave off elimination. I'll watch part of it, but the rest will have to go on the TiVo.

And, today's my birthday. I don't make a huge deal out of it, but we are having my favorite dry-aged steak for dinner (Yum!). Then I have to work on an exam. (Boo!) But it will still be nice.
