Already got my bracket sitting on my desk!!! Michigan State made it in as expected, but Michigan didn't (as expected). DH and I have tickets to next week's games in Detroit which should be a blast!

Yeah, I can't believe we are going either. Since we have season tickets for the crapola, puko Lions we get pre-sale notices on certain things. We actually bought them last year - literally last summer!! We got two sets and are going to try to sell the other pair on stub hub (for face value of course Wink ) so it will work out nice. DH is taking his buddy to the Friday game and we are going to the Sunday game...

The office today is completely empty...college basketball is a HUGE deal in Milwaukee. I am so jealous of DH and Riley...they get to watch all of the games and I am stuck here...sigh.

pretty much the whole state is devastated here. We lost yesterday to Marquette. I think the score was like 69-71. It was the first time UK had lost in the 1st round of the NCAA tournament since 1987.

Yes, but did you see Hank's natural hat trick on Wednesday night? That was amazing!

NO I didn't see it...my grammy is in town from California so I was visiting her, and I didn't set the Tivo. I have to say it was a tough call but I probably would have bad karma for the rest of the year if I'd chosen differently LOL.
