23.....23......23.....23.....23.....23....23

Yes, it's December 23rd. But the 23's are also something much more significant. Important enough for me to actually blog about. I am so freekin' excited. The Gophers are ranked #23!!! I was tempted to print out the poll and sleep with it under my pillow. Not only is Tubby Smith the coach, but we are winning. 10-0!!! We just beat the #9 ranked team in the country. Who, sadly (boo-hoo), dropped to 19. My only wish now is that Blake Hoffarber was oh, say 7-10 years older than he is so that I could have a crush on him. While it would be perfectly legal for me to think he's hot, he was born in 1988, and that just seems wrong.

On a different note, we (meaning MissZalyssa & I) just watched the Get Smart movie. Holy freekin' hilarious. It was one of the funniest movies I've ever seen. We were both rotfloao. At some parts we were laughing so hard we could hardly breath. I recommend it. I didn't expect to like it, and I thought it'd be dumb. But it was very, very funny.

2 days until Christmas. Tomorrow I am baking the bars to take to my sisters house. I am excited about making them. Maybe cause I'm super hungry right now. I could have breakfast, but that would require me leaving my desk. And I'm lazy.

I just finished re-reading Digital Fortress by Dan Brown. Good to quite good. I am now reading Change of Heart by Jodi Picoult. I just started it, but it seems like it will be good.

My big plans for my Christmas vacation include watching The Stand and redeeming myself at Trivial Pursuit the 80's edition. When I play with MissZalyssa, I go through the questions and try to find ones that she has a chance of answering. And she usually gets them right, so she ends up winning. Since I lived through the
80's and she was born in 1992, I figure she deserves a bit of help. Next time I am going to not let her win.....She also beat me at the Simpson's Clue game. That was luck on her part.

Ok, I should probably get back to work. I just wanted to make sure the entire world knows that the Gophers are # freekin' 23. And that I would think Blake Hoffarber was hot if I was under 23.
