Busy, busy day yesterday. The duct cleaners took much longer than expected and then I had to clean up a few areas they mysteriously left piles of dust. Got to try out the new vacuum on it, works like a charm. Maybe this one lasts longer than a year.

After hitting up the gym, we headed out to buy some clothes for my daughter. It took a lot longer than I expected there as well. She now has some nice outfits, although wifee doesn't really like them too much, but what else is new.

Great comeback by Kansas last night, well... coupled w/ the choking free throw attempts by Memphis. Unreal. I was pulling for Kansas to make the score close at the end, then they end up hitting a 3 to force OT, wow. What a game.

What's up with you?

• QOTD: So, how did your brackets hold up, did you win your pool?

Great game last night, and i guess it is true, if you cant hit your free throws, you cant win. That was the big knock on Memphis all year.

QOTD: I finished middle of the pack with both brackets i did...theres always next year

It the first time in years that I watched (most of) the national championship game. That was an unbelievably clutch three to send the game into overtime. I wish they had someone more exciting than Jim Nantz doing the game. I feel like I'm watching the Masters when he's announcing. Gus Johnson should do the Final Four. His head would've exploded on that three.

QOTD: Since I had Memphis going out in Round 2, my bracket was pretty terrible. I finished last in several pools.

[SPTO]

Ah I really nailed it yesterday didn't I?

See I knew Memphis' FT shooting would cost them in the end. Anyways I don't do brackets and all that jazz but I do follow the tournament. I thought UCLA would win it all. At least they got to the Final Four.

QOTD - didn't watch the game, nor filled out any brackets this year

QOTD: Middle of the pack. Still sad about UNC.

QOTD: I wrote a program to simulate the bracket, and it rocked! I got the national championship game correct, Davidson's run correct, and even a few other upsets like Siena. It did mess up on Duke pretty bad though.

QOTD:For the first time,I actually didn't fill out any brackets OR watch the Championship game at all. For some reason, just wasn't into it this year like I have been in year's past.

Been working like hell these past 3 days tho. Can't wait for friday to come tho....PAYDAY
