The Good Ol' Days

I always find myself thinking about how easy life use to be when I am stressed out. Each year it seems like more work is put onto your plate and you have to rise to the occasion of getting everything done. Had I known this fifteen years ago, maybe I would have appreciated my tough agenda of daily cartoons a little more. I was a fan of the Mickey Mouse cartoons when I was younger, even the mickey mouse club. But my favorite all time cartoons were Gummi Bears, Duck Tales and Chip 'N Dale Rescue Rangers. I even had a pair of chip 'n dale rescue rangers underwear, but that is beside the point. I of course watched Rugrats and Doug on Nickelodeon when I was a little bit older, and they are up there on my list as well. Today it just seems like cartoons keep getting weirder and weirder. I enjoy sponge bob at times, but that is about it. So I am curious to hear what were your favorite cartoons when you were a kid?

Varsity Band Concert

This upcoming April, the Kohl Center will play host to the UW Marching Band for our annual Varsity Band Concert. We perform on three nights: April 17th, 18th and 19th. We bring in a few guest artists to play along with us and we play all of our halftime songs of the year. If you are a fan of Wisconsin music, 5th quarter, or just love a fun badger environment, don't miss out! You can even see our 70 year old director fly around the Kohl Center. It is a must see! Here's a clip from last years concert:

A little time at the office

I am a huge fan of The Office tv series. For those who like the show, most people like it for different reasons. Some just love Steve Carell as the boss, or some watch for the love affair between the receptionist Pam and the sales guy Jim. While Steve Carell is the reason I started to watch the show (and is absolutely hilarious), I have to say that Dwight Schrute, portrayed by Rainn Wilson, makes the TV show. Never before have I seen such an awkward looking and awkward acting character. The combo is absolutely hilarious and every scene with Dwight makes me laugh. The reason I am writing this now is because this last Thursday was my birthday and my favorite gift by far was a Dwight Bobble head. I absolutely loved the episode when Dwight receives his very own bobble head to place on his desk. The look he gives as he stares into the eyes of his very own bobble head will forever be etched in my mind. And now, even as I am writing this, I can look at the bobble head and just laugh. The perfect gift...
