Thanks for the b-day emails and comments. Much appreciated.

Didnt do much, a little tomato soup with the family, bought a couple of travel guides to Budapest and Prague. I got an iPod shuffle for skating and working out which Im actually loading with its first playlist as I type this. It was a nice, mellow b-day. Just the way I like them.

the McDonalds down the street from my house is proudly advertising their wireless internet beneath the harmonious glow of the golden arches.

Hockey, hockey, hockey.

I dont think I even skateboard anymore. I just play hockey now.

Last night we won the "lower" (teams 6th-12th places) bracket of our playoffs 3-0. I was ejected with 5 minutes left in the second period for breaking my stick on a guys shoulder after he dove to take me out on a 2 on 1. I didnt hurt him, but...
