1. I made a trip to Yoke's and stocked up on everything from slivered almonds to cat litter! I won't give away what I'm making for family dinner on Sunday, but I will say that, to my surprise, a product I sorely needed/wanted was available at Yoke's -- and I'd never seen this product at Yoke's before. I was stoked when I saw it. I hope it will be a regular item!
2. Copper has done a little bit of business outside of the litter box. Luckily, it was a very easy clean up, but I wondered if possibly the litter box needed a deep cleaning and I wondered if maybe bringing the second box into play might make Copper happier. So, I deep cleaned both boxes. I put the second box in the room where Copper has left me a couple of "gifts" and I'll see if the cleaning and the second box makes him feel better.
3. I enjoyed watching Iowa defeat Wisconsin late this afternoon and was impressed with how Gonzaga, as expected, completely dismantled St. Mary's. I also enjoyed watching the end of Ohio State's win over Penn State. But, most of all, I enjoyed popping a bowl of popcorn and watching the Oregon Ducks win a tough game against the Colorado Buffaloes.
The Ducks have played on television a handful of times lately and it's fun to see how they are coming together as a team despite a disruptive season. Their season has been thrown off my Covid-related shutdowns, injuries, and having several new players join their team. But Will Richardson is back after recovering from thumb surgery. That's stabilizing. Chris Duarte seems recovered from his ankle injury and is playing superbly. The former Johnnie, L. J. Figueroa seems to be fitting in better and better with his new team. Eugene Omoruyi is a superb addition to the Ducks and, as long as he stays out of foul trouble, is a force when the Ducks have the ball. Tonight, I thought the Ducks' defense also showed improvement. They hassled and disrupted Colorado into turning the ball over much more than the Buffaloes usually do.
This game was tight right to the end. The Ducks won it, 60-56. They now host Utah on Saturday. I wish I had access to the Pac-12 Network. I'd enjoy seeing this game. I think I can listen to it online, though. I might just do that.
