Opening day! Syndergaard on the mound! At least it's warmed up a little. I still think they should truncate the season a little at both ends, because playing the World Series in November is so dumb, but what the hell do I know? Anyway, it's spring, and a young person's fancy turns to baseball ( Read more... )

I forgot to switch to The Flash because I was half-asleep watching the Rangers, and they won! Though Tanner Glass was credited with a goal which means we'll never be rid of him now. Sigh. That Holden goal with him in front of the net was nice though. (Why didn't the goalie see through Glass? Because of the screen! ba-dum-tish. Sorry.) Anyway. ( Read more... )

I enjoyed last night's Rangers game, mostly for Antti Raanta's heroics in net and then that glorious game winning goal by Mika Zibanejad (I find it so satisfying to yell out his name when he does something), but oy, the ever present wank about Tanner Glass, who rejoined the team last night for the first time all season, makes going to Blueshirt ( Read more... )

My eternal refrain: why is the Rangers' power play so terrible? WHY?

My dad is still in the hospital - they think it's some kind of bacterial infection. His fever was down last night, and hopefully they'll have identified the appropriate antibiotics to treat it soon. *hands ( Read more... )

Oh man, fuck the Patriots. I knew it was over when Ryan took that sack. Matty Ice was melting under the pressure (I know I'm like the millionth person to make that joke, but it's right there) and the coaching was...poor. At least I'll always have Eli and the Giants beating them twice and ruining their undefeated season. They can't take that away ( Read more... )

Last night, I tried the Q going home, well, the 1 to the Q, and I got on the 1 at 5:30 pm and I walked in my door at 6:06 pm, so that is a lot faster than any other route home (even the dreaded 4,5,6) because it includes a lot less walking to and from the station on both ends. I will definitely be adding it to my repertoire of routes. Though the ( Read more... )

The Giants won yesterday, though their running game still looks pretty bad, and they're in the playoff hunt. I had the horrific notion the other day of a Cowboys-Patriots Super Bowl, and I said to my brother, "I might have to root for the Cowboys in that match-up" and he was like, "UNTHINKABLE." But better rookie sensation Dak Prescott than ugh, ( Read more... )

Wow, wow, Cubs win! Congrats ( Read more... )

Firefly is on Netflix now, so I was watching it, since I haven't in a few years, and aside from the known issues with cultural appropriation and lack of Chinese people in the main ensemble, it mostly holds up. Jayne is pretty repugnant so I don't have a real problem watching Adam Baldwin in the role, if that makes sense. Mal's treatment of Inara is ( Read more... )
