Postponement

Here I was cursing the fact that we are being buried under 500 feet of snow IN THE MIDDLE OF MARCH and lo! my in-laws called from the airport to say that their flight has been delayed. Until tomorrow.

Huh.

What a shame.

Guess Steve and I will just have to watch basketball and eat artichokes and compusively check our office pool standings instead of driving in a mini-blizzard to the airport tonight. You know, this might be the only Snow Day I ever get as a hauswife.

Go Georgia Tech. Shoot. Score. D-Fence.

I made all sorts of crazy promises about what I would cover in this post but I wasn't fully processing the fact that there is SO MUCH COLLEGE BASKETBALL on right now. So I gotta go. Do I love the NCAA March tournament more than you? Um, yes. I'm sorry you had to find out this way. So who do you have picked to win it all? And don't tell me you don't care. How can you not care?

Later: D&C, basement, Patrick, etc.

I'm not sure who will win it, but I have been and always will be an Anybody But Duke kinda girl. Go Heels!!

Oh man, I'm an Anybody But Duke person too! I'm also a Big Ten girl, so my brackets are sucking a bit right now. Thankfully the Badgers pulled through and I'm putting all of my money on Illinois...

New around here, and wanted to say hello. It didn't feel right de-lurking earlier this week, but the NCAA, well, is a little lighter for my coming out party, no?

My Final Four are Illinois, Gonzaga, OK and Villanova. I know, chances are that things will be bad here soon, but I was #3 in our pool today and that feels damn good for a Bracketology virgin. My poor hubs is still wiping the tears from the Gophers loss, but since I know MN sports and the history of choking, I predicted this. Oh, and when were you planning on letting us all in on your picks?

And, for what it is worth, I am really sorry about the miscarriage. I was really pulling for you guys; still am.

ooh, March Madness, how I love thee. And I chime in with the Anti-Duke chant! Sad, sad, sad for Kansas, but it does make it that much easier for my beloved Heels.

Hope you enjoyed your evening in!

West Coast girl here .... go UW Huskies :)

[Millie]

Go Heels!!! I'm old enough I went to school with MJ himself and am having lots of fun watching my team do ok so far this year.

Of course that means I'm completely against the team we like to refer to as dook.

Oh and I'm currently winning my pool so life is good indeed.

PS I'm pulling hard for the Yellowjackets right now. Hope they can come back.

Luke Schensher from Georgia Tech (is he still there?) was in my class in primary school. I had a huge crush on him.

[Toni]

Since the school I went to isn't good enough to get anywhere, I've gotta pull for Illinois...being the home state and all.

Poor Denise...lots of her teams already lost. :(

Ohmigod, I just want to WEEP. Women? Who like college basketball? WHERE HAVE YOU GUYS BEEN?!

I'm the only one in my house and at my work who cares about March Madness. It's v v lonely, as Tertia would say.

But I'm also a Duke fan, so I guess I'm on the outside here too. :) But that's okay. It's just nice to know that SOMEWHERE out there, somebody knows that a bracket is more than just a shelf support.
