i love basketball so much: i really need to make up for lost time

so i think that last post i made was the last time i had FREE TIME. Now it's almost a year later, and i'm revelling in my office closing down for the holidays!!! This week off is awesome...and it feels so gooooooood!

i thought i would take this opportunity to post some pictures and links to imagestation albums for everybody to view.

Here are some miscellaneous favorite pics of the year:

paul in all his BLANG BLANG greatness

i don't know why my fav pics are starting off with paul, but here's another:

so we're shopping downtown and i take paul up to my office so that he can take a pee, and i let him roam around...when i go to search for poor lost paulo canlas, i find him in the staff fridge going to town on the chocolate fudge ice cream...BUSTED!:

me and joe's first weekend cruise getaway...all we did was stay in our room and watch sunday football, i loved it! oh yes, sidenote: ABC MONDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL RIP...you will be SO missed:
