first off, nice suit bob. what the heck is that? this man makes millions of dollars a year coaching division one basketball, and this is the best he could come up with? wow, just wow.

secondly, uc put an absolute beat down on west virginia last night and when i say beat down, i mean annihilation. that might be the most satisfying uc basketball win in a long time for me. don't get me wrong, i appreciate all that huggins did for uc basketball while he was here and all, but he ain't here now. it was nice watching him just have to sit there and see his team take an ass whoopin' for forty minutes.

also, kim, kim, jason, and i went to see the u23d movie last friday and it was spectacular. i don't think i'm going to be able to watch "normal" 2d movies anymore. why aren't they making all movies in 3d? my only complaint about the movie was that it was so short at only an hour and thirty minutes. i could have sat there and watched five hours of u2 concert footage in 3d. it was really interesting to see the band that close up during a concert. i've been to too many u2 concerts to count, but it was a totally different perspective to see it that close. i highly recommend going to see this, even if you are only a fringe u2 fan. you won't be disappointed.

as of tomorrow, kim and i will be parents in about six weeks. we've been washing baby clothes like crazy to get ready. kim has had two baby showers thus far, so there has been plenty to wash and even more things that need to be put together. it's all a blessing though, not having to buy everything that were going to need. things are really coming together as march 14th approaches.


see you all on down the trail...

first off, how about my uc bearcats? they have been tearing the big east up for the last two weeks. granted they are only 9-9 on the season and 4-2 in the big east, but that's pretty damn good considering they were 11-19 and 2-14 respectively. this season they have already beaten syracuse, louisville, 19th rated villanova, and most recently 15th rated pittsburg. that one was especially nice considering my extreme dislike of everything and anything to do with that city.

kim and i had a really nice christmas and new years this year. it was our last one sans kid, so we tried to live it up as much as possible. we saw both of our families and extended families over the holidays and spent new years eve with kim and jason playing guitar hero and eating pizza. we also got a video camera from my parents for christmas in order to document all the baby happenings since they don't live in cincy. hopefully i'll be better at doing that than i have been at keeping this blog up to date.

i'm going to try to be better at updating things here for the four people(and glen) that read this thing. i'm sure there will be plenty to say as kim and i head down the home stretch towards our impending doom on march 14th. we've got the nursery almost all setup, thanks in large part to kims parents being so gracious as to buy our crib for us(cribs, and baby stuff in general, are crazy expensive and it's completely out of control but i'll save that for another rant). after the beginning of february, we'll know what we'll need to buy after kims various and sundry baby showers are over. hopefully it won't be much because i don't want to have to sell a kidney to finance it all.

one of these days i'll get around to a michigan post about all the happenings in the football program since they got pounded by osu. AGAIN. hopefully things are going to get better and not worse on that front.

see you all on down the trail....
