Mike “Whenever Duke Shows Up It’s a Big Game” Krzyzewski and John “Don’t Make Too Much of Today” Thompson III didn’t go all ga-ga over 40 measly minutes.
Forty measly minutes that were, oh, televised by CBS, called by their No. 1 announcing crew, attended by the world’s most prominent pickup ‘baller and witnessed by more than 20,000 gray-clad souls who howled for their Hoyas until the final horn — and then some. Forty measly minutes, around which the most enthralling basketball atmosphere imaginable revolved Saturday afternoon.
They don’t have to go ga-ga, but we will.
Georgetown’s utter dismantling of Duke at Verizon Center was simply the most riveting basketball spectacle in downtown Washington in almost four years.

So I totally forgot that today was Ziggy’s first birthday until my dad posted on facebook to remind me. I’ll let you read that sentence again. I forgot our dog’s birthday and my dad posted pictures on facebook which reminded me (since when does he know HOW to post pictures on facebook anyway?)
Anyway, I present to you - Ziggy on his first birthday, stolen from my dad’s facebook. Also - Note the caption. (Georgetown plays Duke tomorrow. My father’s basketball fandom makes mine look tame - he’s been to 8 different states for games in the past 4 years).

This makes me homicidal.
I just… what… NO. /brain short circuits
I don’t understand pink jerseys. I really don’t. No MLB team’s colors include pink. The only time it is acceptable to wear pink is Mother’s Day (for breast cancer research), and little girls under two years of age. Everyone else can wear their team’s damn colors, kthx. If you want to support your team, you’d think you’d WANT to wear their colors, anyway. What the shit, MLB. WHAT THE SHIT.
/RAGE!
Hahaha agreed. I was going to say that the only time I’m okay with it is for Mother’s Day; I’m going to try to nab one of the Red Wings pink jerseys when they auction them off this season.
AGREED!!! Pink sporting gear - be it college or professional - annoys me. If you’re going to support your team, wear their damn colors. I proudly sported navy/hunter varsity gear when I was an athlete at Drew University, navy/grey sweats and basketball t-shirts for Georgetown, and red (which I NEVER wear otherwise) for my Phillies. I don’t care if you don’t think it’s cute those are your colors and they mean something! I’m sure a lot of it is girls who aren’t really into sports and things like that (or at least I hope so, I never take anyone in a pink ballcap seriously as a sports fan).

For a nickel, you can take a picture of me
standing just so in front of a wooden board
with a heart painted on it.
For a dime, you can take a picture with me,
you squatting behind and peeking through
like I’m one of those cardboard cut-outs
of an “Indian Chief” or a unicorn or some other
supposedly mythical creature.
When you offer a quarter, we move to the tent,
dim-lit and dusty, where I sit on the low
quilt-covered bed and pat the space beside me.
You are nervous. “Will it hurt? I mean, will it hurt you?”
I shake my head. “It never hurts. Not anymore.”
And then I take your hand and guide it up towards
the hole in my chest. You tremble for a second
as you reach through me, wiggle your fingers
around behind my back, disbelieving.
“Where is your heart?” you ask.
“How do you live without your heart?”
I don’t know how to answer, so I say,
“It’s amazing the things you can learn to live without.”

#ThisIsEmbarrassing
So, Twitter just put out “Local Trending Topics,” so that you can see what people in your area are Tweeting about. I set my location to DC, expecting District-centric trends like #ReyburnBuilding, #HappyHour, or #JCrew. Instead, here are the top 3 hits: #nowthatsghetto, #thoughtsduringmyfirsttime, and #shouldbeasin. Ugh.
What time was this from? Because I just set mine like that too, and the trending topics are:
Itampon,
applesnextproduct
oraclerun
apple ipad
union address
john edwards
ugly betty
cancels
arenas
apple tablet
About what I’d expect, given Apple’s press conference today, the SOTU tonight and the Gilbert Arenas drama. I know you were joking but I don’t think we’ll ever see a Senate office building trending ;-)

…Because I know now that I’m good enough not to deserve this…not to have to feel like this, not to love you so much that I almost hate you. I deserve someone who will stay.

I hardly ever watch Grey’s anymore. But when I do it seems to insistent on being incredibly freakin’ relevant to my life.
