This morning, I'm right back in the store to deal with long lines of people returning items, and endless strings of kids with gift cards. It's been a good company to work for, but man, I'm glad this is almost over.

I'm taking the family to the Blue Door for lunch today. The boy has been asking to go there since we saw them making Spam balls on Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives a couple weeks ago.
The only time I've been, I got a juicy lucy that was approximately twice as tall as my mouth.
I went with the bacon Blucy. I don't think I'll be eating for the remainder of the day.

Well, this is interesting, in concept.
I will not be around forr the wolves tonight, I am dvring thoug really looking forward to the game, you guys.
Holy crap, it took me a minute to figure out that was Kevin Love on the floor.
OMG. I heart Ricky Rubio, you guys.
This team is fun as hell to watch. Even if they lose a ton of games, they're fun again.
Seeing Rubio take the rebound and start a fast break was gorgeous.
The pass underneath to Randolph was ridiculous.
Ack...lost my stream.
I hope you lost it before the really terrible sequence by Ridnour to end the half.
It's back now, but yes, I didn't have to see that.
Wow, this is completely slipping away. Well, at least it's the Thunder.
Never mind...we're in it again. Also, Westbrook is a chaunce.
Well, every team has to have at least one.
Rubio to Williams...wow
I'm seeing a lot of Kelly Wells's against the Wolves' "defense".
That could mean a few different things, but I agree.
true, true. I was thinking "backdoor," but I guess "dribble penetration" also applies.
ooooh. Down to the wire.
Yeah, this is more than I hoped for against the Thunder.
Super Cool giveth, and Super Cool taketh away.
Yeah, that was a brick. Just bowling shoe ugly.
made 'em sweat
29-31 at the line, Thunder? Really? Was that necessary?
Westbrook got away with a lot of elbows tonight, and it was still very close. The Wolves hung around with an extremely good team. I'm officially excited about them again.
Right there with you. SSS, but Rubio is the best point guard I have ever seen.
someone needs to tell Micheal Beasley there are more scoring options on this team...he was 11-27 tonight
I dont know too much about JJ Barea except he was with Dallas last year and he is shacked up with a Miss Universe, but he brought some toughness tonight
and of course RUBIO!!!
I still stand by my prediction of 25+ wins for this team
I can see this team challenging .500, for sure.
Barea was solid at every turn tonight. Quietly, he was probably the star of the game for the Wolves, despite no flash.
And...yeah. Beasley takes a lot of shots.
not only a lot of shots, but probably 10 of them really bad shots, falling away from the rim or hard contested double team shots.
SCB giveth/taketh away was exactly the thought I had at the end, too.
Fun game to watch, though, and Wolves excitement comes just in time, as the Wild continued to dance with the Regression Monster by dropping their seventh straight.
at least the Wild showed signs of life for most of the game. Playing with only 5 defensemen for two period probably hurt a little
Gleeman noted SCB scored 24 points on 27 shots, and the rest of the team scored 76 on 60. Gross.
That lines up with my anecdotal memory, but I never would have guessed that the numbers backed me up on how inconsistent his shooting was. Gross, indeed.
