DISCLAIMER: I am by no means a hockey expert. I've probably gotten some things wrong, and I have a lot of knowledgeable super fans on my friendslist. I will gladly welcome any corrections/constructive criticism :)
I hope everyone had a great Christmas! And if you don't celebrate, I hope you had a happy day anyway :)
My only response to the Downton Abbey Christmas special:
It was basically perfection. Plus the fact I BOUGHT MY PLANE TICKET/HOTEL FOR COLORADO right before, I'm a flaily mess right now.
The Merlin finale was a little disappointing in the-one-thing-I-really-want-to-happen not happening, but was overall satisfactory. Bradley and Colin were looking fiiiiiiiiiine And the Doctor Who Christmas Special was just right amount of cheesy. Matt Smith + children always equates to wonderful. I wish it [SPOILER: had more Bill Bailey and co though, they were amusing].
PS World Juniors start tomorrow! The US plays Denmark at 8pm EST. You can watch on the NHL network! /not that anyone cares
My Air Force tickets came in the mail today, and I ordered our Canucks tickets. Now I just need to get my flight and the hotel next week, and the Colorado trip is set!
Yeah, I just kind of dropped off the planet there... I still have a meme question or two to do, so I will be finishing that. The TARDIS did pass inspection, and made a successful trip to CT for a pair of Uconn games. In other non surprising news, I'm way behind on everything. The only Christmas present I've purchased is Stef's mom's. Womp womp.
I couldn't sleep last night, and I'm spending most of the day with my Grandma while she gets chemo. Caffeine will be my best friend.
ONE WEEK UNTIL BRICK CITY. I can't wait to see everyone, especially Everett. Though I feel like it might get crazy with everyone wanting a piece of him. Stef thinks he's staying with her, and Jen A thinks he's staying with her. I'm expecting the Drama Llama to make a visit.
Sabres season starts at 1pm today, but I will be at the hospital. :( I'm bringing my netbook, so hopefully I can find a stream. I'm also DVRing it to cover my bases. I have 6 Sabres on my fantasy team, they better do well!
ALSO: RIT starts the regular season tomorrow vs Niagara. They haven't beaten them in 13 years(they didn't face them for 12 of them, but still). They're the only AHA team RIT didn't beat last year. Time to remedy this, tbh. It should be easier with Zanette and Haczyk gone. I can't go to the game, but I lucked out that it will be on TV here. :D Usually Cornell gets preference, but the ECAC starts their schedule late.
-AMERICAN HERO (and Rochester native) Abby Wambach will be dropping the puck at Brick City Homecoming!
-Since I don't have enough things going on, I volunteered to run the kestrolls's fantasy hockey league. Thus the #cluelesscommissioner hashtag was created, because I have no idea what I'm doing. :D
! He played so well yesterday. Not to forget his fellow RIT bro Pinizzotto, with twoassists. Sturm looked really good, Eddie Lack was a brick wall, Polacek made an awesome save on a breakaway(no broken faces though) and Ballard looked solid!
The Sabres won against the Habs tonight, but they had most of their regulars and the Habs were mostly bbs. Oh. Well, a win's a win. I didn't get to watch because I was under the impression it was only on the radio. I found a french stream with like 2 minutes left in the 3rd. Boo.
And the Yankees locked up the AL East tonight! I love that the win came off a 2 run hit by Jorge ♥
retroviral that is waaaaaaay overdue. Sorry love, HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
tired
happy
