Last day at my current job…

Last day at my current job that I have had for 9 years. My first serious job and ended up leaving my team of about 30 people. Shitty ass day but a needed move for a lot of reasons.  So cheers to new adventures and challenges.  

Regardless drinking a few craft beers. Right now I am having a masthead witness me double ipa. Everything I have had my masthead is really good. 

Also a tradition for the…

Also a tradition for the wife and I. Started it about 5 years ago. Kids are still too young to understand it but eventually I want them to partake in the tradition. Normally we are doing last minute Christmas shit during but this year we are just relaxing on the couch with beverage in hand.  Merry Christmas everyone. 

Mine was not bad, a bit of…

Mine was not bad, a bit of pain and swelling for a few days and just tender I guess I would say. Don't jump back into he saddle too quickly afterwards, i think they said a week you should wait.  I have heard that is not pleasant feeling.  

Also make sure you do the follow up tests, only way to confirm it worked and your body didn't go all freak mode and put itself back together.

My doctor did the same thing.  Weird but reassuring?

One year ago

I just had it done around a year ago, I remember watching March madness while waiting for the OR be be ready.  For me and my wife it was right decision, as she had a traumatic birth for our twins. 

 Sexually it had no effect at all, just make sure you use protection for whatever amount of time your doctor tells you to use protection for. My doctor said most of the "failed" procedures aren't actual fails but rather guys jumping the gun a little too fast. 

 The actual procedure is very weird. You are just laying there with your dick and balls out for everyone in the room to see. I will say my doctor was great and kept me talking about normal life stuff for the most part (my occupation, March madness, the school, etc...)

Agree that season one was…

Agree that season one was great and season two was lackluster.  I will probably wait until GOT is back to get HBO again and then will watch season 3 then.

 

Had a hopslams and the just a New Belgium Imperial IPA. While Hopslam is good this year I think the market has saturated with very good IPAs so it doesn't stand out as much.  Obviously just my opinion. 

Just finished the first…

Just finished the first round of snow removal, had about 6 inches but some of the drifts were closer to a foot. Now the wind is really picking up so I am sure tomorrow morning it will look like I did nothing today .

Starting with a troegs nugget nectar and then will probably move on to either a few hopslams or maybe finish the shorts variety pack I got a few weeks back .

Yes, I would say I follow…

Yes, I would say I follow basketball closer than hockey but a lot of that has to do with the lack of televised games for hockey. Brian and Dave have talked about this recently on the podcast as well, but it is really a shame all homes games are not at least streamed.

I am so happy to read this but damn we have more than two weeks still.

I discovered columbo by waking up in the middle if the night and having meTV still on (basically a satellite version of nick at night) and I always found myself to interested to go back to sleep.

2) mad men

3) parks and rec

5) boardwalk empire 

If you haven't watched boardwalk it is a really good prohibition gangster series .

GOT is probably in this list as well once the series is over.

Had a founders dank wood and now sipping some bulleits.  Sunday we are going over to my parents for breakfast. Already got my gift from the wife and twins, a beer of the month subscription.  Then Sunday will end with playing some lacrosse in my old mans league going to be going to be hot as balls but will still be playing lacrosse. 

Bells hopsolution

Drinking a few bells hopsolution. Have to coach a girls lacrosse playoff game tomorrow morning. Each game I am dreading right now. I have decided this is my last year to coach (12th year at the same school). Have been around the program from the start but I am getting to point in life in which I am missing out on events for my kids. Whenever this season ends I am going to have a rough time leaving the field.

Sixpoint resin

I picked up a six pack of sixpoint resin. It was pretty good. I had two this afternoon and evening while making dinner and watching the game.

North high

I just had a North high stardust to stardust and damn it was good. I guess it is something good out of Columbus.

That is the only stone

That is the only stone IPA I have had that I didn't enjoy.

Odd side ales

I have been enjoying the odd side ales that have coming out recently. Some really good IPAs.

Oh yeah

Oh yeah I always forget this fact/rumor. The brewer left for thirsty dog and they say 12 dogs of Christmas is the actual original great lakes Christmas ale. Thanks for the reminder.

Bells two hearted

Bells two hearted
Founders breakfast stout (which will be year round in 2018)
Short's hellacious rock (double IPA and not sure if available outside of the hoppy holiday variety pack)

Great lakes

I enjoy most of their stuff especially some of the imperial IPAs but their Christmas ale has gotten worse over the years I feel. Still a decent Christmas ale but not a great one.

Nothing

But I did get a khols gift card so I was able to buy a navy michigan sweatshirt.

Is it over yet?

Normally my company has a habit of closing early the day before holidays. But have heard it is a hard no this year, which means I am 100% confident we are closing early.

Either way this will be a weekend full of family, food and beer.

I wish

I am stuck at the Orlando airport with the wife and kids since 9. Noon flight got cancelled so had to pick up a flight to Philly at 5 and then a transfer to Detroit which lands at 10ish. Makes for a long ass day for toddlers. Will be stuck watch games on my phone.

franklin

I can't stand when he said that winning the big ten would help this University heal. fuck that guy

Beer

At dinner had a Great Lakes Lake Erie monster, now working on a few Great Lakes commodore perry.

Senior year of high school

This was my first full beer i drank. I had had a shot here or there earlier. It was a party before our homecoming game. Grilled some burgers and drank some bud light. Had a few and got buzzed. Went home after the game and had to play it off to my parents.

One of my favorites

This guy was one of a few bright spots through some tough years. Plus he was always smiling.

Bulleits Bourbon

Rough week of work needs Bourbon.

Yesterday

I just got mine yesterday (Toledo), i haven't had a chance to do anything other than open it and flips through a few pages.

Three floyds

Watching the last two episodes is GOT as a refresher for Sunday while I am having some three floyds alpha king

Inside lacrosse podcast

Talked about this topic this past week. They hinted that they thought amplo would take the job, they didn't actually name him. They followed that up with if the current candidate (amplo) turned them down that they would then have two more candidates that have a larger profile in the lacrosse community.

Cornflakes chicken

It was chicken with mayo and cornflakes as a crust. It was one of the worst things about my childhood.

Beer and wings

Having a few Troegs Perpeutal IPA. Have been enjoying their IPAs lately.

Cliche but true

Enjoy every moment even the frustrating ones. My twins are turning 4 a few more weeks and I have no idea how they got his old already. I am sure those with kids of all ages can agree in this point.

Also cherish the small things. They are some of the best memories.

Flipping between the games

And drinking some average wine that someone gave me as a gift. Not a wine fan but I hate wasting booze.

UMBC

They have been average this year. They were destroyed by UNC and Hopkins early this season and then have wins against two below average teams and then another loss to Richmond and Towson. They don't have a great record at 2-4 but their SOS according to the computers is high. It should be a good challenge for Michigan and a win would give a lot of confidence going into the big Ten season opener at Maryland. They played Maryland tough last year so that could be a great game.

Great Win Today

Easily the best win in program history.

Hopefully they use this momentum to cause some talk in the Big Ten, which is stacked this year and could be argued is the best confernce in the country with 5 teams in the top 20.  Michigan being the only team on the outside, but have won the games they should win, MIchigan winning today is obviously an upset.

Mad Tree

They truly do have some amazing stuff.  I haven't been to their tap room or anything but have tried a few of their canned stuff that has made it up to Toledo area. 

Troegs Nugget Nectar

I was able to find some today and couldn't pass on it.  I will take Michigan 64-59, will be awesome to see a banner raised next year.

It can't be any worse than this.

I can't wait until the NCAA

I can't wait until the NCAA is abolished or enough schools ban together to leave. They truly are a fucking joke.

Agreed. It is a terrible

Agreed. It is a terrible blog. No substance to anything they "report".

Not sure he had an option to stay.

I am pretty sure there is

I am pretty sure there is some shady shit going on in Athens and is the real reason Collins will end up in Athens. I know, surprising.

I personally like the new

I personally like the new apparel for the most part. Like most people I am sure they were some things they found ugly. I got a bunch of basic looking stuff and enjoy it. The fit is good and the materials seem decent for at least average wear.

But did he have Michigan

But did he have Michigan underwear on. That is the true sign.

Not a fan. But whatever.

Not a fan. But whatever.

Just found out we have an

Just found out we have an interested buyer for our house (went on market yesterday) and found out my offer on another house was accepted tonight. Trying to calm the nerves with some bulleits tonight.

I will take the favorites in all games this weekend.

Sucks for him. Others have

Sucks for him. Others have already brought up his insurance plan that he took out so at least he was protecting himself. Hopefully he makes a full recovery and becomes a hall of fame tight end in the league.

This reminds me of the bowl

This reminds me of the bowl game last year...except we were on the fun side.
