Sugar High !

Hello

This was my facebook photo for a while, for some reason I love this picture. I took it in a hostel room in Wellington New Zealand, my back was really bothering me and I had no energy to explore the city

For those of you who do not know my sister is getting married in just under two weeks and as part of the wedding, guests are being given a little box of choclates at the reception. So a couple of days ago members of my family and I had the thankless job of tasting various kinds of choclate. It was rough having so many different choclate options to taste and choose from, but eventually we settled on some delicious choclate options. I am very happy that this is a wedding I do not have to MC. Don't get me wrong I enjoyed being the MC at my cousins wedding, but I get really nervous when I have to do public speaking.

My only responsibility for this wedding is some ushering for the ceremony, which I am doing with my brother Paul, should be painless. After that it is off to the reception where there is an open bar and as you all know, that means awesome drunk Chris will be making an appearance.

The Red Wing won their last game yesterday quite handily and hopefully they can finish that series tomorrow. The Raptors unfortunately lost on Friday, they had a great season and a great future a head. Luckily the Golden State Warriors won and I will be cheering for them for the rest of the playoffs.

Facebook continues to inject it's delcious addictive qualities into my system. I can't control myself

We Bring It On And On

As promised another blog

These pictures are all from New Zealand.

There is the rocky ocean view from Wellington, My Maori brothers who I met at a rugby game, and a view of Auckland from a Ferry

Thankfully the Red Wings squeezed out a victory last night in overtime. When they were down 2-0 I was convinced that they were done, but like a great team they proved me wrong.

The Raptors also one their last game and they live to play another day. That day is Friday and hopefully they can win in New Jersey. Golden State blew a chance to send Dallas packing the other day, but they have another chance tonight at home.

On Saturday I was having drinks with Dave, Twyla, and Jeff at O'Shea's and I looked up and made eye contact with a dude who was walking by. We looked at each other and we both recognized each other. He came over to our table and said "didn't I meet you in Munich" and sure enough he did. It was a bit crazy running into someone who I met in Germany. I remembered later that he was a geologist and his company does a lot of work in Northern Saskatchewan and their office is in Saskatoon. It was a bit crazy, my mind was blown.

Now We Sip Champagne When We Thirsty

It has a been a week and half since I blogged. I don't know if I am losing the passion I once had for blogging or whether my life is so boring right now that I have nothing good to write about. I went back and looked at my blog from last year and I realized that I use to put a lot more effort into writing this thing. I am going to try and get back to the high quality of blogging that I know I can achieve.

I would also llike to thank ODB for encouraging me to blog more last night.

This is the best time of the year if you are a sports fan. NBA and NHL playoffs are in full effect.

The Raptors have been very dissapointing the last two games, hopefully they can rebound tonight and extend their series. Despite the lack of success by the Raptors I am still finding joy in the NBA playoffs because of the Golden State Warriors. They have a chance to knock off one of the best teams in NBA history tonight when they play the Dallas Mavericks. If Golden State wins it will be the biggest playoff upset ever in the NBA.

My Red Wings lost last night in a tight game against San Jose. I am not worried because I think this series is going to go seven games and hopefully the Wings can pull it out in the end.

My continuing obsession with Facebook is still very strong.

I am currently reading a book called American Dynasty. It is all about the Bush family and their shady doings throughout American histroy. Very interesting if you are a Poli-Sci nerd like myself.

I promise I will blog again by Thursday
