Better than usual

Did you know there have been three sequels to the “Free Willy” movie? Dumbass whale.

… The Winter Olympics just ended and what looked to be unforgettable games turned interesting rather quick. Sure there were problems at the start, but there were some memorable moments. The men’s hockey gold medal game between the United States and Canada was very entertaining. The game ended 3-2 Canada winning in a 4-on-4 overtime period.

There were other memorable moments. Unfortunately for me, I’ll remember the games for the extra amount of work that had to be done. To top it off, one of my co-workers took his vacation and it made some shifts impossible to make deadline. It’s been a long time I’ve worked a shift that made me want to quit at the end of it.

I survived and I’ll become a better person for it.

… I went to my first Ash Wednesday since high school probably. It was one of the most unorganized masses I’ve been to, but it will go down as one of the most memorable.

At first, the priest asked if someone from the congregation could lead in singing. The mass went relatively fast than a regular mass. After the ashes, the gifts still needed to be presented. The problem, no one was assigned that. The priest asked that it needed to happen and had to ask again for someone to bring down the gifts.

All in all, it was a memorable mass. And in case you’re wondering, I gave up red meat and soda for Lent.

… February ended and that means I just need to survive the next 31 days of March. I’ve had some let downs during this time, but not too bad. In fact, I’ve done my best to try and not let things bring me down. I’m hoping I can continue the trend for the next month.
