auntiemeeshAnother weekend over, another work week about to begin. After barely dipping my toe in the water the past five or six months (at least), I'm going to do some archiving this week. Time to wrap this project up and be done with it. I've also got parent conferences to line up and prepare for, so it will be a busy month.
I managed to stay awake all afternoon only by dint of drinking a lot of diet soda. Now, having drunk a lot of diet soda, I'll probably be wide awake all night. Nothing new there.
Hockey update:
*The Penguins won their game yesterday, leaving them up 3-2 in the series. They go back to Montreal tomorrow, where they could end the series if they could muster up the energy for back-to-back wins, something they haven't managed yet in this series.
*The San Jose Sharks eliminated the mighty Detroit Red Wings in five games. This is the first time in, I believe, four years that the Red Wings won't be in the Western Conference Finals. This makes me happy.
*The Vancouver Canucks just pulled off a win against the Chicago Blackhawks. Another reason to be happy. Vancouver and Phoenix were the two Western Conference teams that I was pulling for from the start of the playoffs. Phoenix got taken out by Detroit, but Vancouver made it through the first round, only to self-destruct when faced with Chicago in round two. Tonight was clearly a good game, however, and they beat Chicago 4-1. Chicago leads that series 3-2, so Vancouver needs another two straight wins to move on to the Conference finals. It's not likely, but it has been done before (most recently by Montreal in round one this year against the Capitals) but they've put up a fight, so good for them.
