And so it ends.

My two years as a Denver-based Avalanche fan, that is. (warning: if you don't like hockey, don't bother)

It's been great. I started watching this team when they picked up Bourque back in 2000, back when I still lived in New Orleans. In 2001, a rookie left winger scored two goals in game seven and won my heart completely. I cried...

New hockey pics up in My Pics. Aebby and Tanguay and Footer and Liles, mostly. A couple of Steve Moore the way we like to think of him.

Can Calgary send the Wings out tonight? I don't know, but I'm going to be watching.

I hate mondays. Really, I hate everything today.

I need breakfast but I refuse to get out of bed. I have...

My horoscope in Vogue says this is a good time for major life changes. Cool.

I bought sparkly eyeliner today.

I wonder. Maybe customs is always interesting. Yeah, I have a few dildos in the closet, but when you go through anyone's personal belongings so thoroughly, you're bound to find something intriguing.

I kind of wonder if maybe I'm not as special as I'd like to think.... Then again, they seemed pretty certain that I must do a lot of drugs, so maybe not....

you're so fuckin cool, girl.

Ok. Enough hockey obsessions. I'm taking it to the sports groups. And you may notice that I'm deleting comments that either insult my teams or say anything good about the Yankees or Canucks. Why? Because it's MY journal, and I don't wanna look at it. Especially the fuckin' Yankees. I hate baseball.

And while I'm laying down the law, I know this may be nitpicky,...

I don't think he should have been suspended, but it was a stupid cheap shot. What a sweet goal, though...20 minutes baby.

And eye injury to Yzerman. How ironic...

what would i do in a hockey group?!?!?

well, learn, i guess... surreal
alpha_hazard:
well, I'm glad to hear someone is having a worse day than me...actually that's not too surprising...I had a fairly good day, what the hell am I whining about? Yeah, always good to put things in perspective.

Anyway, I am perform the requisite SGCO Background Check...do you need finger prints? Or can I just post this and hoep you read it...
Anyway, I saw a few things in there that interested me...

Jello Biafra-interesting guy, good slogans, bad analyst, good music, bad businessman. Oh well, we can't all be perfect, because that would be lame...plus, if Jello was perfect that'd be just...incredibly strange, but not without it's entertaining aspects...

Agnostic Front In FC-I was so disappointed to miss that...sigh...I haven't been to a show in ages.

Anyway, check me out, and let me into the SGCO party!

Dear Colorado Avalanche,

Well, I guess we won't be re-signing Selanne, eh? In any case, it's been nice knowing you, You really don't need to worry about me, though it's nice to know you care enough to try to make my move easier by proving to me that you really aren't the best team in the league at all. But really, you needn't let Aebischer...

Nah, I'm not fluent. I'm pretty good with pronunciation, though. If you need something translated, I can probably figure it out for you. Just let me know.

Thanks everybody for the birthday love! I'm sorry I didn't reply to everyone, but you're just going to have to forgive me--I spent a stressless day on the couch watching hockey (Vincent Lecavalier once again is a rock star, and Jeremy Roenick ain't bad either), then had dinner and dessert with friends and got some phone calls from Philly, Detroit, Boston, and New York.

See,...

Happy belated birthday. biggrin

In case you're at the game, I note that Patrick Marleau's favorite band is Nicleback. Ha-ha...
sebsis:
Goalie interf. calls are getting out of hand. If you look like you might some time in the next 10 minutes skate near a goalie and give him a hard look they will call it.

I'll mention it to Vinnie when he get's back.

Gimme danger, little stranger...

So tomorrow's my 24th birthday. Why does 24 sound so fucking old? It's not, I know. I just feel like I should've accomplished something major by now. Well, I suppose I have, by some standards. After all, I've got a degree, right?

But the way I was raised, that's not a major accomplishment. My parents always told me I was a...

don't know ya but saw it was your birthday so i thought i'd wish ya a happy one! biggrin

wait 'til ur my age..then you'll know what old sounds like wink
tinfoilhalo:
AWWWWW CRAP!!! I missed your B-Day . Sorry . frown

I hope that your actual birthday was happier than the day you wrote that journal . NOBODY , especially good people such as yourself , should be unhappy on their birthday . Oh , incidentally , I have come to the conclusion that you're not old until you actually start going out and shopping for funeral plots . If you haven't done that yet , you've still got some time to get your life going in the direction you want . wink

I once told my mom that I was going to make a million dollars by the time I was thirty , and buy her a new house , and send her on fabulous vacations , etc...Well , I work in a warehouse and barely make enough cash to pay MY bills , let alone do anything for anybody else . I STILL have faith though . I know that there's SOMETHING more than this that I'm supposed to do . I just need to pull my head outta' my ass and figure out how to do it . Maybe we should start a "Voluntary Under-Acheivers" group , or something . biggrin

your pretty face is going to hell...

love Vincent Lecavalier love

Because I've obsessed over Marty St. Louis enough, and Khabibulin's eye twitch creeps me out (even though he did tie the record for most playoff shutouts in fewest games, not to mention his regular-season shutout record.) Tonight was Lecavalier's night to remind people that there's more than one star on the Tampa team. and if they...

Today was ugly. I wasn't really expecting the Flames to win today; Game 3 will be the key.

The Avs aren't out of it, although the Sharks are a better team than people give them credit for. I was only able to see the game sproadically, but I seemed that Tanguay wasn't 100%?
