Irony

I REALLY hate irony… I bought a Zippo lighter back in October when I was in Hawaii (I don’t smoke, it’s ’cause I’m a pyro, HAR), and I FINALLY bought some Zippo lighter fluid, and now I can’t find my lighter…

Why is it that whenever I drive myself, I get hurt? And when I have someone drive me I don’t… I start out in the locker room tieing my skates up and I see my laces have turned red. I think to myself, ”Oh, interesting, the paint off the skate came off.” Then I realize there’s not that much red on the skate. So, I look around and I have light patches of blood on parts of hands. It took me forever to find where it was coming from, I narrowed it down to an intex finger on my left hand. I still dunno how I got it… Second, during the game I get checked from behind and high, and I bite my lip, I’m bleeding for a while… Third, forechecking I put too much speed on and run into the boards. Dang, I suck… Not a fun time…

Back to the game. As you can see by the scores they won. Sure, they did, but we did NOT give up without a good fight. For a time we were tied 5-5, but they managed to pull away. I blame the short bench. It’s ok, we did great.

I’d like to thank Ken for coming out and sub for us. He helped us out lots. He was all over the scoresheet. I forget what (or who’s) kind of Hat Trick this is (the so-and-so hat trick or whatever), but he got a goal, assist (2), and a penalty. Good game, Ken.

Speaking of Hat Tricks, a long overdue Hat Trick has been awarded to, yes, ME. I’ve been in the league for too long without a hat trick and today it was all mine. Go me. (3g 1a)

Also, grats to Byron also with a 4pt game (2g 2a), and a shorthanded goal.

Alas, he had to say goodbye to another player. Jeff our goalie (of all people, LOL) are leaving the team as a permanent player. Good luck in the Culinary Academy, you lucky bastard.

All in all, I think we had a great game, we played hard, gave Jeff a remember us present for his last game (50 shots?!), we maybe made too many mistakes and let too much slide (guilty), and now we’ll just have to get them back later in the season or playoffs where it really matters. I hope to have a better turn out next game. Which is next year!!! Have a good break all…

PS: CRAP, how the f*ck did I forget to write up last game!? Yeah, we won. YAY. Let’s see if I can dig up the score sheet somewhere…

What seemed like a struggle after losing the lead late in the third, turned out ok. We fended them off a good part of the game, only a few mishaps put us 2-2. I have to pat myself on the back (for once). I got a really nice b-day present from the guy upstairs. Not just a goal, not just the game winning goal, but a nice pick from the good player on the other team deep in their end, then towards the net, waited just enough to let the goalie commit, hesitate just enough to get the puck past him into the net. I know that’s going to replay in my head for a long while. Great game, despite the refs gunning for Byron, heh. Let’s hope for a fuller bench next game, =) Nice to have the W again. Let’s keep it up!

Work

As if waking up at 5:30 AM and working until 6 wasn’t enough, tomorrow I’ll be working from 7-10, isn’t that swell. I hope more things work on the game…

I’m not sure what to say. Other than, it looks like were back to our old habits. I know we played strong, just not strong enough. I had to play with the lines a tad, as Mike’s a better center than I am. Maybe I should float next time and keep the 3 on the first line together. I know we need a full bench, as the last 2 games we had a short bench with the same result. On the other hand, we’ve won games with worse odds. Let’s just keep up the hard work and get the win ball rolling again!

EA Games

LOL while cleaning my room today, I find it funny how much my room is ”litered” with EA stuff. And it’s not just EA games. Lots o’ other stuff too, mostly games tho. Just at glancing around I see C&C:G & ZH, BF1942, Sims2 (DVD still unopened), Original Sims, NFS:UG2 (Xbox), SimCity 4 + RH. I have to stop buying games…

Speaking of which, I have an extra Lord of the Rings: the Third Age for Xbox for sale. My name is in the end credits, show a friend! Email me if you’re interested. Also a NBA Live 2005 for PS2, I bought an extra one by mistake. Gotta get a little money back on these, sent an email soon!
