Saturday, a day to catch up, work & Bears

Ok, I know I fell behind a few days with my blog. I guess I got too busy the last few days to post. So I'll try to do a recap of the days, and get up to date.

Thursday

I'm not sure why I wasn't able to post on Thursday. Sitting here thinking about it, I can't think what I did all day long that prevented me. I know I had to do some minor errands, and we went out to eat, but other then that, I can't think of anything else I did. So I guess I'll go on to Friday.

Friday

On Friday I did do a lot. It started off with going out to breakfast. We like to eat at Bob Evan's, but we've never gone there for breakfast, so we started off with that. Then we headed over to Chocolate World. We haven't done that in a while, so thought it would be a good change. We took the tour ride, and walked around there. Then we headed over to the zoo. Since I had the day off, and I'm soon not going to have weekdays off, we decided to get at least one more trip in before the full season starts again. Since it was such a nice day, it was nice to just walk around looking at the animals. We did something we've joked about a few times, which was get pictures of every animal.

Then we did some usual Friday things, like grocery shopping. But later that night when we turned on our TV we found that the color was flickering really bad, and that is a lot of times an indication that the TV is going bad. So we headed out to look at TVs. We ended up going to Target and getting a new one. But the one we got was bigger then the one we had, so it wouldn't fit on the entertainment center we used to have. So we found a new entertainment center we liked, but this one didn't have enough shelves for everything we have, so we looked for a cheap set of book shelves, and got them to hold the rest of the stuff. So we came home, and spent until midnight setting everything up.

Saturday

Today was a busy and annoying day. It was Boy Scouts day at the zoo. We were swamped with kids. Most of which don't know the slightest thing about money and tax, and have no respect at all. I've always thought they taught you that in Boy Scouts. I guess they don't anymore. I ended up getting out later then I wanted from work because of it, which made me have to rush to get home and get changed for the Bears game.

Now the Bears game was amazing. It started off with Aucoin scoring early in the first, making it 1-0, then about half way through the first Bourque scored making it 2-0. Late in the first Aucoin
scored again, his second of the night, making it 3-0. History was made in the second period as Alexandre Giroux first tied then passed Tony Cassolato's franchise record for goals in a single season. Giroux scored the 4th and 5th goals of the night. Graham Mink picked up a goal in the second as well, scoring his 32nd of the season, a new career-best. During this time the Sound Tigers scored twice, making the score 6-2 at the end of the second. Andrew Gordon would score the final goal of the game in the third, and bring the final score to 7-2. This puts Hershey further in the lead for first place.

So after this exciting night, and long day, I think its time for me to head off to bed....
