When Wednesday Doesn't Feel Like Wednesday

These short work weeks wreak havoc on you sometimes-it's already hump day!! Which means the weekend is this close again. Maybe this is the weekend I finally follow the wife to the gym...before she really can kick my not as healthy ass in. Some random hump day musings:

-What is going on the NBA playoffs? Usually these things are fixed to maximize as much audience as possible (or as much as anyone still cares), but what's going on is truly ridiculous. Can you say Denver and Orlando?? Ewwwww. At the very least, we all figured LeBron would finally make an NBA Final?? Starting to wonder about is abilities as a team leader yet??

-The Penguins are in as they spring cleaned Carlina in four straight? Can Chicago believe in miracles???

-The C(h)ubs finally won on Tuesday, ending my mini baseball boycott. I wasn't going to watch anymore sports until the bastards finally won. Now that they finally won, do I jinx the winning streak??

-Mike Tyson's daughter died after a tragic accident involving exercise equipment. I'm still not sure if there was supervision or why Tyson wasn't around. Gotta feel bad for Iron Mike, who doesn't seem to catch any breaks any more.

-Congrats to George Mason's baseball team, who was awarded an at large berth to baseball's version of the big dance. I believe they have something like 42 wins. This team apparently can hit, so we'll see if they cause any match up problems for the big boys.

Not much else to say, but make sure you see my post later on today regarding my summer reading list. Some good stuff in there that should make you wanna jump and read. Seriously....reading is...or should be the foundation of our society. The society gone to pot by the internet and video games.

Anyway...have a good hump day...
