The Mayor...and we won!

Most of you know that I like the Wolves. Most of you also know Mike LOVES the Wolves. I'm not saying he's more passionate - he just rocks more knowledge.

You may not know that I love a few current (and former) Wolves players...they are:

1. KG. So obvious. But so right.
2. Corey Brewer...mostly because he's so skinny...I'd love to buy him a burrito after a game.
3. Mad Dog (aka Mark Madsen) because he's like the beating heart of that team...
4. Big Al - duh...he's killing it this season...and tonight he broke the offensive boards record for a season for the wolves (which if you consider or offensive rebound record you shouldn't be too surprised that this man can (and did) do it).
5. drum roll please...

Yes - that is myself posed alongside The Mayor...former TWolve, current Asst. GM! You might scratch your head and say...who? Let me tell you!
- Former Wolve (with a heart of gold) that happens to be faulty. He has some crazy heart condition that basically makes it impossible for him to play at the professional level because he could seriously drop dead at any second. He weighed the risk v. benefit ration and decided to become the Asst. GM. I like him better alive.
-He is 6 feet, 5 inches tall (that is 1 foot, 2 inches taller than me).
-He is from Ames, Iowa.
-He was so popular in his hometown (where he played highschool and college ball) that he garnered the moniker "The Mayor"
-He is really nice.
-I photo stalked him the entire game tonight.

One of these girls is for sure his daughter...I'm guessing the girl in the Hoiberg jersey...but they might all be...he has like 7 kids I think. I know...it's creepy I know that, and creepy I took this picture - but they were being really funny. I'm really not a creep.He (and the daughter(s)) left their seats for a few minutes and this a-hole and some other guy tried to poach them. It was so awesome to watch Fred come back, realize what happened, and then mock-count the rows multiple times before asking the dudes to move.

How embarrassing - stealing seats from the General Manager of the franchise?

Final Score: 98-94 - but the real win...stalking Fred all night!

Everybody's working for the weekends...

So much happening/happened. Where to start? In the past moving toward the future. Ok.

So even if you're not a basketball or TWolves fan (or if you're amberjean and you ask me "What sport does Kevin Garnett play?") you should check out this CP story...and pay attention to the last quote. It actually made my day. Serious.

Also in the past - Mike and I went to the TWolves game Friday...our boys took down the Clippers. Anyone else getting hyped? Kevin & Sam also attended the game - but took off early to haunt NE. Mike ditched me to skate - but I ditched him to hang with Jen and Sarah - so I guess we're even. Sarah and I made a late-night run to BLB. So did a lot of other people.

Saturday seriously threw me off. I was informed around 9pm that EC's birthday would include skateboarding, Wii, and the Red Stag. Fast forward to 11pm. Me walking up to the studio and spying none other than Scott Seekins waiting for the bus. Walk into the studio and see a rager going on. Really? When's the last time you went to (for all extents and purposes) a house party?

Hey pretty ladies...hey
brothers. to each other. and me.
party time. excellent.
does it look like I have jowls? weird.

I think they like each other.
Mean muggin. Fo sho.
Happy Birthday. If it counts, EC's not gay.

Boots. I miss you.
CuddleFest.
Dancing.
Dancing?

Mike was sick on Saturday, and Sunday (and today). Explanation for his absence in photos.

My family has a lot of birthdays in the first quarter of the year - so I did that on Sunday. View photo-log below.

The drive home...and the hill of many camp-0uts

Swensons. I used to bike up here every day in the summer and buy candy.
Dala Horse. Or Dala Häst. If you're in the know.

We have a lot of these in "town"

oh god yes.
Notice a common wardrobe from party to family? Sorry.
