And I’m sure it’s five o’clock somewhere. Time for a cold one.

Any big plans for the weekend? Tomorrow is my oldest son’s 18th birthday. We’re grilling steaks tonight since I’ll be at !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! tomorrow evening, and we’ve arranged a drive by birthday party tomorrow afternoon. We’ll go get some awesome takeout for lunch. Looking forward to F1, Tour de France, hockey, and taking Monday off . I’m going to unplug my wife’s computer to keep her from working over the weekend.

Y’all take care.

My birthday is next Wednesday so with the holiday on Monday I decided just to take the week off. I’m sticking around the house so hopefully I can get in to the garage and finish getting the Camaro’s engine back running.

Hockey... man, if Philly wins tomorrow there literally cannot be a bad cup final this year. I haven’t been doing more than checking scores since the Leafs went down, but the final is going to be must-watch

I stopped following after the Hawks inevitably lost to Vegas. But the Canucks are giving them a serious run for their money. I don’t really have a dog in the fight, but I guess I’d like to see Dallas win out. For whatever reason, though, I tend to pull for Original Six or Canadian teams. I’ve never liked the Avalanche. Maybe it’s the uniforms? I think most of it is growing up and watching hockey in the 80s and it was all Edmonton and Calgary.

Tiger Beer is actually quite wonderful. I’m drinking high life now because $18 for a 30 pack

I love me some fancy beers, but for some reason I will always pick up High Life or banquet for jam nights. I guess it feel more rock n’ roll li festyle

The Canucks have shocked the hell out of me. It IS in large part excellent goaltending, but still... Wow.

I’d rather the Avs win, partly because Kadri’s on the team, and partly because Colorado/Vegas would be spectacular. And either one of those against the Lightning (probably) is just going to be wall to wall action.

Also, Dallas is such a weird team to me... Seemed to go from no goaltending killing them, to an all defence mentality because of lack of scoring, to the previously meh goaltending coming together with the defense to go on an improbable run, to offensive monster+goaltending, all without any earth-shattering change.

Of course, that could be Eastern bias showing. And obviously, Heiskanen is amazing.

Hope your son’s birthday party brings smiles.

Thought my weekend would be hectic, do the lack of prep by department management, but.......

Was supposed to return to full time work on Tuesday after being off since mid- March. Text @ 5:17 pm today says that no work until 9/14 as they are now reass essing state CDC guide lines due recent covid outbreak in this area that is 3 times above the state average.

There is some music that is meant to be heard and not listened to, and there are some beers that are meant to be drunk and not dwelt upon.

Thanks. I’m sure he’ll enjoy it. I wish we could do more, but it’ll be what it is.

It will be m em orable, maybe not for the reasons you hoped it would be.’

The best days are not grand celebrations, rather, a ga thering of those we hold m ost dear.
