Day One-Hundred Twenty-One: Brace Yourself for the Mediocre

So, you'll notice I didn't actually updated yesterday's post later at night.

That's because I went to bed at 9:30...and I actually FELL ASLEEP! And I stayed that way until seven this morning! It was a miracle! I have felt so good all day, it's ridiculous.

I feel GREAT! YEEAAAAHHHH!!!

Summary of last night's happenings:

Don't use UPS. Ever. Do not give them your money ever again. Tell your friends, tell your family. Don't. Use. UPS.

Last night was a night for incredible hockey games (barring the Aeros' 7-0 drubbing, forcing a game seven tomorrow night in Milwaukee). Caps and Pens going 7 after Washington's 5-4 OT win, and Chicago takes out Luongo's Canucks with an amazing 7-5 win.

Now, for the meat of today's post: It was announced this morning at company meeting (and we already have the kids' brochure out), so I suppose it's safe to announce our season for 2009-10:
