Some Marchy basketball footnotes

I just took a bunch of tylenol and have a horrendous amount of work to do. Once my pills kick in it's off to thermo. Let's see how much I can blog before then...

I had a game at noon today. The ref threatened to give me a technical foul. Three different times. For three different infractions. That is a personal record, even for me. I should point out that I'm not a dirty player. They just didn't like when (while getting hacked after a rebound) I used my elbows to clear some space for myself, show the ref that I got hacked, or say the F word. The F word one wasn't entirely me.

So... March Madness, huh? I picked Duke to win again. But I didn't bet on it, so they probably will this time.

Then I started thinking... I wish I went to Duke. I would paint myself blue for the games and ask who wanted to see my Blue Devil.

I thought of this as there were 5 teenagers squeezing into my bathroom to paint themselves up for hoopla. I, as their ringleader, was green and wearing a cape. We are so awesome it is unreal. I should note that acrylic paint hurts to remove from the nipple area. On a happy note, it is great for exfoliating. Once the apparent allergic reaction clears i will have the nicest chest/stomach in the world. Hurrah!

On yet another note, I had a student successfully test for his black belt a week and a half ago. I can announce it now that i have decided to give him the results. After two short months of instructing, I get to hand out a black belt. Very cool beans.

Well I feel better. Books-hit time.

  1. I should point out that my brother took home a silver medal from basketball provincials, making it back-to-back silvers. I am extremely proud, but must admit I was a little jealous watching them play on a big stage. Must be nice to have more than 2 fans show up.

  2. Whoahz, wicked blog. Love the funny- you have some wit, sir. Also, my mind is blown by the fact that you've taught someone to be epic enough for a black belt. Nice.

  3. Congrats on the handing out of black belt to a student! That's super epic, and most definitely full of win.

    You need to post a picture of the greenness and cape. :D

  4. I guess it's less of a cape, and more of a towel that I painted "BHS MARAUDERS" across. On a scale of 1 to "bitchin", i'm at something like "...... dude......"

    Best part? I went to superstore to buy groceries on the way home from the game. in my cape. Nope, haven't had shame since first year.

  5. Shame is a strange and foreign thing since Lister. I don't even remember what shame feels like haha

  6. Shame is what you feel when the white foamy ball hits you in the face. That's all i know. Let's remember I was the guy who built an elephant head and wore it to a party so that it looked like my junk was the trunk of the elephant.
