The end of an *almost* perfect weekend...

Though my definition of "perfect" could use a lot of help, I take what I can get. The ACC tournament started last Thursday. My team (the Wolfpack) was a #10 rank, of 12 teams.

Thursday night, I'm helping a friend with a garage door repair job, we finish up, and watch the second half of the game - which the Wolfpack proceeds to come from 5 points behind to beat Duke.

Friday night, we continue with the project, stop for the night, and watch the second half of the game - which the 'Pack proceeds to come from 14 points behind to beat Virginia.

Saturday afternoon - I lay waste to about 1000 square feet of weeds in my backyard by borrowing a tool from my buddy, and return it just in time to watch the Wolfpack defeat Virginia Tech.

Sunday afternoon - We meet our rivals - the Carolina Tarholes - for the championship game and lose by 9 points. Unfortunately, this also keeps us out of the NCAA tournament. So, during the coming weeks, I'll have a little more free time as I won't be watching much basketball.

On a lighter note, hah ha, Daylight-savings time kicked in this weekend, the weather was wonderful, and I've begung some of the yard-work I've been itching to do all winter. This home-ownership thing is a trip.

I've also discovered that when I get done with the computers at night, and leave the office, there's a metal chain on the light in the ceiling of that room. That comes into contact with the skin of my skull. That discharges the static build up by sliding out the chair and taking two steps on the damn carpet. Bzzt!
