The Cardinals have made some pretty big offseason moves (including trading the hometown hero from the 2011 World Series) but overall I think they have done the right things since the season ended. How did it go? I saw somewhere that the Lions weren't in the Cup, but I could have been wrong.

Almost done with all my exams! Got one more tomorrow. Had two yesterday and two papers. The two that were yesterday were supposed to be Tuesday, but there was a snowstorm and school got cancelled. Yesterday right when my economics final was about to start there was a lockdown on campus because of reports of a gunman. Turns out it was a false alarm (off-duty cop actually ) but they had police and helicopters and the whole nine yards and everything was shut down for nearly two hours. Needless to say my professor changed up the exam and made it super easy . Thanksgiving was great, and I'm going home for Christmas Break on Saturday! Seeing The Hobbit on Friday with my friends and I can't wait! Then when I get home I'm going to a Rams game with my dad.

It seems they've mostly sorted out the ACA (Obamacare) and it's back on track. The House just tonight passed a bipartisan budget bill, which is actually a huge step forward. Doesn't address all of our problems, but is better than governing from crisis to crisis. Ah yeah, Stephen Harper if I'm not mistaken?

A bunch of people have told me to watch Supernatural, maybe I should! Currently watching Parks and Rec on Netflix.
