I forgot to talk about this earlier this week … but Jason Taylor is once again with the Miami Dolphins!  I guess that means I don’t have to feel shame in wearing my JT jersey!

What I really enjoy thou is a snippit from this article in the Miami Herald …

“Everyone knows the Patriots made a strong play for Taylor, but few recognize that the Jets also called. That call from New York offered Taylor a chance to unite with coach Rex Ryan, the architect of Baltimore’s ferocious defense the past few years.

It offered Taylor a chance to be a star as close to Broadway as anyone can get without actually performing in a play. But Taylor rebuffed that flirtation because he passionately dislikes Jets fans to the point that playing for them is slightly less preferable than death.”

Hah hah hah … god I hate the Jets … and clearly I’m not alone!

Hey everybody … yeah I know … once again I’ve been slacking off in the blog writing department so I’ll try and make up for it here with a big ol SUPER blog post … just picture a cape fluttering behind me in the wind or something …

Yes it’s the New Year which means it’s once again time to look at one’s self in the mirror and try to figure out how many pounds you can lose … and yes, even I fall prey to this line of thinking … I can’t recall if I mentioned it back in November or not, but the friend squad chipped in and picked up Wii Fit for me for the b-day … well, they said they were going to buy me one once they found a copy … well that copy was found and Wii Fit is now in our house!

What does this mean?  Well it means that I am now attempting such Yoga poses as ‘The Warrior’ and ‘Tree’ while a generic character on screen tells me that my balance seems a little shaky … I don’t think you need to worry about me too much unless you hear me moaning a lack of Lululemon apparel for men …

We Carders had ourselves a nice little merry Xmas … the real tree we bought only fell over two or three times so I’d chalk that up as a win … Brianna was cute as hell in just about every picture we snapped of her … i’ll get around to posting some of those soon enough … the whole family made out pretty well in terms of Santa delivered treats … i won’t go into a specific list but there were many smiles under the tree this year …

So what am i vowing to take care of this coming year?  Well … aside from installing a yearning for ladies yoga wear … I guess I’ll once again vow to cut out sweets and to keep excersizing … I’ve actually done the Wii Fit thing 5 days in a row thus far!

Oh yeah … and I was excited and then VERY dissapointed with my Miami Dolphins … yay for the turnaround season … boo for the four or five picks which Pennington threw in the playoff game …

So I’m sorry I haven’t written … I guess I’ll have to make up for that with a couple of really quick hits here …

Last weekend I went out to Ohio for the Semi-Annual Cedar Point-athon … attendance wasn’t quite what I was hoping for from our crew … although those of us who DID go ended up having a spectacular time!  Even if one of us was being a big fraidy cat and wouldn’t sit on the front of the Raptor and ended up snoring throughout the night in the motel room …

Last night was the season premiere of CSI … where they had to tie up the situation involving Warrick being gunned down … although the crime fighting aspects of the show weren’t the best I’ve seen, they did handle the other aspects, namely losing Warrick, EXTERMELY well … Shari made a comment saying that usually they don’t do funerals very well on TV … well last night’s was pretty damned good …

Brianna is still being a handful … she’s going to celebrate Turkey Day this weekend … maybe some of that triptophyn (?) will work it’s way through mommy and into her little mouth … so she can nap out and catch up on all the sleep she seems to be missing …

Uhhhh … Dolphins won this weekend … Leafs won last night in Detroit … sooooo … I think everything in the world is right!  Except of course for the financials markets … but hey, I’ve got at least a little bit to go before that hits me, Joe Consumer, right?  Right? … sigh …
