Ramblings of an Anonymous Coward

Filling The Gap

for those that aren't interested in mindless ramblings, you may as well skip this post. i have too many feelings i just can't let out right now because honestly, i don't know how to share them. so in the mean time, allow me to answer the ever annoying question -- what's up?

after my quick post friday night, i kicked back in bed and watched the movie called home room. i was expecting more of a suspense thriller based on the description on the blockbuster box, but it turned out to be pretty good anyway. a bit depressing, which i really didn't need, but the back story worked for me and as happens far too often, i could identify with some characters.

slept in late saturday and kept my face in front of the idiot box. i don't think i got out of bed (except to pee) until around 3pm. in fact i'm sure of it as i hopped out of bed and ended up grilling up burgers on the grill -- despite the nasty rain. while tucked safely under the covers, i watched the last episode of dvd #2, season #4 of the sopranos. i've really enjoyed watching a tv series via dvd, except for the long waits for the next season. after that hour, i finally got to watch finding nemo. i've heard a lot of good things about this movie, but honestly, i was a bit disappointed. lest it seem otherwise, it wasn't a bad movie, but i do rate it well below shrek.

so after wasting the day away watching tv followed by an impromptu cook-out on a rainy day -- which, btw, made it so i couldn't enjoy the lunar eclipse -- i headed east for my weekly hockey game. the rink's roof was leaking which caused a few problems, but that was no excuse for the 4-4 tie. no, some of us just had shitty games and the forwards didn't bury the chances they got. with only three D, i suppose i should be happy being even with 2 assists after the game, but we really needed the win to put us in better position for a playoff run.

sunday morning was literally a blur. i couldn't focus visually or mentally. the bright spot was my boy had a game and upped me with his weekend performance of 4 assists leading his bantam team to a 9-6 win. afterwards he skated with the second year bantams in their practice and then rung me up on the phone asking if he could practice with the 16-unders too. sure! five hours straight of skating... the slacker! :-)

it went downhill from there -- two short blackouts caused my computer to crash, the first one destroying over an hours worth of work. after getting back up to that point and finishing off my project, the proverbial shit hit the fan (again).
