I actually went to bed at a decent hour last night and feel pretty damn good. Amazing what a little extra sleep can do for you.

I finally worked the kinks out of my neck and I'm going to the gym again. Getting old sucks.

What's up with you?

• QOTD: Have you ever won a prize of any sort? If so, what was it and how did you win?

Happy Birthday to the following OS'ers!

QOTD: I usually don't win stuff, but about 2 months ago I had some luck. I won 16,000 MS points in a play and win contest for PGR4. Just had to play PGR4 on xbox live in November to enter the contest. Right after that I won Burnout Paradise with game guide book from www.joystiq.com.
Then the next week my wife wins courtside Knicks tickets at a school raffle.

QOTD: I won MLB 2k6 here at OS on a opening day pick 'em contest once. That was neat. I also won a Mustang once but couldn't accept it because I was around 23 at the time and the contest rules said the winner had to be 25

Wow, that must have SUCKED! Couldn't give it to someone else in the family either, I take it?

Heading down to Dayton for my wife's grandmother's funeral, picking my brother-in-law up at the Columbus airport along the way.
Dayton and the Cavs both lost last night. David West always killed the Flyers and now he's killing the Cavs.
On a brighter note, I got the largest raise I've received from my annual review yesterday, so that was pretty cool.

QOTD: I won a Kenny Mayne bobblehead from an ESPN.com contest once. I was pretty close to winning MLB 2k8 yesterday (if only Hank Aaron had hit 798 homers).
