snow day

What the heck!! I cannot believe this mess!

Snow in Dallas in February.

I went to 3 stores just to try to find some things for my fireplace which should be common, but none of them had it...They looked at me, smiled and said, it is February...we run out of wood/ and all fireplace items in December, and don't reorder.

Good Times!

A group of us went to a minor league hockey game this past Saturday. The Texas Tornadoes. We started out the evening at Paulios, which is an awesome little place where they have freaking great pizza and pasta. So a group of us started out there having a great time amongst friends, then we headed over to the game. Ben and I with another friend were following Amy, who had two more in her car, and it was an experience! There was one point where we needed to do a U-Turn, we were stopped at a red light when Amy just went ahead and did a U-Turn at the red light and headed the other way…well, Ben and I did not know where we were going (hence the following Amy in the first place…) so Ben just followed suite. (What the heck was she thinking?) :)
Then we get to the park, and Bens truck was too big to fit in the upper section of the parking terrace, so we got good parking right on the ground level.
What an awesome time! I so love Hockey and it was a great game. It ended up going into double overtime which ended in a shootout. They even had a put up your dukes’ fight between two guys who needed to let off some steam. (There was an obvious height advantage to one of the guys, so it was not really fair, but it was still awesome!) So cool. I had a great time hanging out with friends, and watching people getting checked right and left!
Hope we can do it again. It is a very affordable sport to go to live! And one that I really like too.
