sO fAr, So gOoD

it has been awhile since ive made an appearance into the blogging stratosphere and i blame this on a)chaos (which really is a lousy excuse as this is the norm in my life) and b)un-inspiration (if that is indeed a word). ive had trouble coming up with anything to talk about, i mean blog about (rarely do i have a problem coming up with something to talk about). thus, the absence. i did feel the need however, to inform this little community that i am so far, A-ok as far as the NCAA tournament stands. oh yes, its been good to be me the last couple of days if you're a basketball fan. first and foremost, purdue (refer to previous post) hung on in the first round beating Baylor. it was a great game, at least it appeared to be from the 4 or 5 minutes they actually aired on CBS. they play Xavier tomorrow in the second round. i must be honest, ive got really mixed emotions regarding this game. while my heart is pulling for purdue, i actually picked xavier to beat them in my brackets. thats terrible, yet entirely realistic. anyways, on to the REALLY exciting news...the Liberty Flames. who'd have thought they'd have made it to the big dance, but they did. we're talking women here (of course the men's team didn't have a chance..) and they are supposedly really decent, although im not claiming to have seen them play thus far. actually, i dont think ill probably ever get to see them play as my career at Liberty is drawing to a close. bummer. nonetheless, the Lady Flames are 28-3 and will play 5th seed ODU on Sunday. so... as of tonight and the circumstances surrounding the successes of my two devotions (basketball speaking), i am living in a blissful state. im sure it will be shattered shortly yet tonight, life is good.
