Bandits Valentines
Ok so last Night I went to the first Home game for the Buffalo Bandits. The Bandits won in what would up in the end a close game. In the begining the Bandits scored quick but the tittans changed goalies. I think at one point the bandits might have but up like 6 or 7 to 1 I lost track I was having so much fun. I sit next to a bunch of cool guys right up on the glass. That is one thing that is nice about sports. You may have only the love for the team in common but that is enough and someone the entire (ok some of or most of) the crowd can bond. It dosn't matter what you think sexauly or politicaly or soicaly but you have that common bond that you are pulling for your team. I'm doing sometihing tonight where I may take pics so hopefully I will put game pictures up on monday I hope. Hopefully I will still get to see most of the NFL games on today and tonight. Even though they arn't teams that I care about to much they shoud still all be great games. So today I'm at Right Aide looking for snacks and video tapes and before I even walk in I can see these huge Valentines day hearts, oh great now i'm fealling crappy. But for those of you who are all romantic and love the holiday you should check out M&M's website. If I understand it correctly you can order them in what ever color you want or even in packs that match the theme of your party or event or whatever. But if the add I saw was correct you can get little sayings on them kinda like those candy hearts. I had something else I wanted to mention Oh yeah I'm taking a vacation day on monday. I just hope I can stay awake for the new Adult Swim lineup I missed it last sunday and there was some new cartoon on called Smoking Gun, along with Assy McGahee, Robot Chicken, Moral Orel and not sure what the other one is. Tonight is Bleach and Trinity Blood both of wich I really enjoy.

out early for me
Category: work
Today it was so nice to leave work around the time I'm supposed to a little bit after 3. We are usaly busy enough that I stay till 4 or sometimes 5. There where still things to do it is just that others where doing them and there wasn't much I could really do that would help them. It was nice to get home and then go see the family and eat togather for a few minutes (usaly I could care less). I usaly eat as I watch TV at home. I had time to go on line both here and myspace and WWE and read mail. I also had fun playing with my sisters kitten. Every once in wheile you need to chase him around the house. If you walk into another room he will often follow you. The one thing though is it is often a losing battle he is more mobile and quick then you are, plus he can hide under a bed or other small places. I will admit that I hardly ever run anymore but it was kinda fun, plus it is good for him to. It was nice just to relax. Now I'm off to watch the House M.D. and tape Boston Legal (both are great shows). I think some award show is on also and I think Miami Ink is on tonight also. There is no way I can see them all. Not to Mention Wrestling is on at the same time as Miami-Ink and Boston Legal so it should be a nice relaxed night.

SabresBandits
Category: sports


The above link should lead (hopefully) to the Buffalo News's first sunday page. It has two articles about Ryan Miller that I found interesting (in the paper it was kinda one). The only thing I didn't like about it was that it implied that if the sabres win the Stanley Cup it would be Buffalos first championship or was that major championship. Yes I get that the bisons are Minor League baseball, Yes I understand that the Rochester Americans are Minor league hockey. But it seems that everyone dicounts the bandits. Is it true that everyone who plays also has a real job, Yes. Is it true that it is a small league, Yes. Is it true that it has hardly any national coverage, Yes. But in terms of Lacorose it is as big as it gets, it is professional. The Bandits are Truely the only Buffalo Team to win a Championship and they are the first. But wait that may not be true I thought the Bills won a championship before the two leagues combined. The Bandits have been close to winning a couple more championships lately but have fallen a little short. Wouldn't it be awesome if this was the year for both them and the sabres. In any event the Bandits home Opener is this friday vs. (if memory serves) The New York Titans (expansion team). I'm sure I will post pictures if I have the time with football on saturday if nothing else some cheerleader pictures.

If i did it right that link leads to a journal that is now empty for somereason. This is kinda a reposting but not really. In early december I was going to write about shows that where coming back on TV But then it looked like they warn't coming back on but now it looks like they will be back on. Sometime in January Prision Break returns on Fox, great show glad to see it back. If you havn't seen it there is a good show called Heroes on NBC. I started watching it when my mondays when my monday fox show got axed it really is verry good that will be back soon. On Sunday The L Word returns to showtime sho.com has more info on the show and back episodes I think are on show on demand. But the show I'm looking forward to the most is 24. It is on for two hours a week from sunday and then another 2 hours on Monday. I have seen some of the previews and it really looks good. That being said I wonder how far in advance they will start from where they last left off. On a side note I don't know if 24 will start on time cause I'm not sure about what time the fox NFL game is next week but I'm sure I'll be watching like I will be today and tomorow.

It builds and builds
Category: anger
I wish I could say more about work, not sure where the line is of if someone was to read this what would be ok and not be ok. So all I will say is it is driving me crazzy. Our old boss worked with us and filled orders and also did office stuff, but our new boss is a manager "With 35 years of experience" to bad he dosn't even know how to do what we do and so has no buisness being a boss. He likes to micro manage things that is a bad idea it really is. He changes things that worked fine and that there warn't any problems with. I not saying everything he does is bad, but he sure thinks he is the place's savor. Today he came out and told people how to stack product on a skid but yet he never does an order himself and has no idea how changing one product stands on a pallet of mixed goods changes everything around and can mess things up. There are somedays that I just feal like walking out and never coming back. This place used to be so fun to work at (oh yeah and still do all of our work). For those of you who don't know this there are 3 (well maybe more) sides to me. The verry quite and keep to myself peacefull side. The social and crazzy breaking on people in good fun side. Then the really angry side of me, that side seems to be coming out a lot lately and I mean really a lot. I know it all stems from work and hopefully it stays at work. I find sometimes angry or aggresive music can help calm one down but to much of it can have the opposite effect. Maybe I should play something aggrisive as I watch the sabres. I doubt anyone reading this can really get the full picture of why the new boss gets me so upset sometimes but that is ok, cause I'm writing this more to vent then anything really. Wait payday is tommorow at least that is good. If any one knows any good anger realeases don't be affarid to leave me a comment.

I'm watching my boss go through similar stuff. I took a video course once and the instructor told us that if you ever really want to mess the director up, do exactly what they tell you. Same thing applies to no nothings like these supervisor types. Other shoe will drop, just takes time.
