40 minutes on the YMCA treadmill, the dry December finally broke, and with a vengeance. I'm lucky the power was on to run the machine, though without power I wouldn't have had to watch whatever crappy college bowl was on. These are just filler so ESPN can sell more ads, right? Ugh.

On the bright side, my ankle felt fine after yesterday's twist. 40:00

You don't enjoy watching two 6-6 teams duke it out in front of 13,000 fans?

I especially like it when neither team plays defense, and it's 40 degrees outside. Nothing says "happy holidays" like that.

You must have liked that Baylor game, then...

Oy. The UW basketball team gave up fewer points a day later.
