So the Conference Championship weekend is over, and Super Bowl XXXIX is set, Eagles vs Patriots. Very exciting I must say, and while it's a little premature, many people are talking dynasty and if the Pats win I think you have to call them. Appearing in 3 out of the last 4 Super Bowls is a huge accomplishment in this modern era of free agency, and if they are able to win this one, it would definitely solidify their position as the first real modern day dyntasty. What they were able to do in the last two weeks, shut down one of the best offense's in NFL history and then put up 41 points on the best defense in the league, is incredibly impressive.

Not much else is going on otherwise, classes are going pretty well. This will be the first honest to god full week of them actually so we'll see what 4 days *gasp* of them will be like. Got to see Katie Lander yesterday after morning mass which was pretty exciting, she was in town for the 80's party over at RIT. Things to do this week
* declare PSY minor
* CSC 242 HW
* CSC 280 HW
* Read more Homeric Hymns (even though they weren't written by him)

And so it starts... Back to Rochaca for the final time after a Christmas break. Left home way too early but made it here with a ton of time before the Colts/Broncos game. Manning continues to be incredible and they just destroyed Denver. While I was unpacking and such Madeleine came to visit me which was awesome and then Amanda started to move in, so I helped her move a much too heavy box over from CLC to the House. Still paying for that one right now in my arms actually, but hopefully I'll live. Church was sweet tonight, it was upstairs, there was no music, and it was short. Doesn't get too much better than that. I'm really tired from getting basically no sleep, so I think I'm going to turn in now. Should be a lazy day tomorrow, but most everyone gets in at some point during the day so that will be really cool.

So yesterday was a very long day. Woke up at 6 AM in order to travel down to Oakland for my PET/CT scan. That went pretty well, so then my parents and I hit up the Strip District and Ross Park Mall. Ate lunch at Parmani Bros. and got some new shirts at Pennys. So then we went back to Oakland for my appointment with Dr. Agha and in his unoffical opinion he says my scan was good so I'll go back in about 4 months or so. Other than that not much else happened, went to Wal-Mart and picked up my new contacts. Then watched the OC which was awesome, then did post-show analysis with Katie. Thats about it, uber-long day.

So a new year huh? Perhaps this year I'll be better about this whole blogging thing in general. It is the wave of the future afterall, circa 2003... but I digress. Didn't do a whole lot today, woke up and did some treadmill action, then got ready for a dinner outing. Katie Cosner and I went down to PF Changs in the Waterfront. The meal was very good other than the sake, and it was really nice to get a chance to catch up with her and all. It's hard to believe that we'll both be graduating within 6 months or so, but that is life I guess. So that was a nice time. Came home and then made a trip up to Wal-Mart where I saw Arlee Fafalios who was playing with the photo enhancer thing. So I walked around with her while she did some light shopping. Overall an enjoyable day, looking forward to the upcoming NFL playoffs this weekend, and further out the Super Bowl of course. I think thats all I got for right now.
