Sabres 5, Maple Leafs 2.
I think I might have lost this team. Or rather, I think the team might have lost this season. Falling flat against Buffalo, of all places? *Buffalo*? I mean, sure, they’re no North Carolina–and we pretty much sucked against them last time too, but come on. What happened to the … Read the rest

The new blog on the corner.
I’ve been trying to convince Jessica to get back into the whole blogging thing for, well, ever. I’ve even gone so far as to threaten her in various ways using various methods. She just wouldn’t budge. Until now. After offering to host her very own non-LJ blog, it running on … Read the rest

Snap your fingers and it’s Sunday.
As expected, Jessica’s graduation went off absolutely with no problem whatsoever. She got her diploma, we got a picture, and everyone got to relax a little afterwards with something alcoholic and good conversation. We hit a local bar after the cerimony for a drink or two, and to do some … Read the rest

It’s kind of like Christmas morning.
I guess it’s made that much more appropriate by the weather we’re having outside right now. Since late-ish last night, I’ve been more and more looking forward to events scheduled to take place tonight. Roughly 12 hours from now, Jessica will have graduated from a year and a half of … Read the rest

Coyotes 6, Maple Leafs 3.
Yes, I know. We just got our asses handed to us on a silver platter by a team from a city that technically shouldn’t even have a hockey team. I found myself wondering, more than a few times last night, if the Leafs actually managed to send more than 2 … Read the rest

So let me see if I understand this.
In 2008, OC Transpo drivers went on strike, effectively shutting much of the city down, during two of the most demanding months of the year–specificly, November and December. OC Transpo management doesn’t want a repeat of such a thing. So, as an attempt to counter any future strike activity, OC … Read the rest

The almost not quite maybe not interview.
For approximately 24 hours, I flirted with the prospect of maybe having something that vaguely resembled employment when I got back from Rochester. I received an email from what I assume is an HR person from the Canadian Automobile Asociation (CAA), specificly their north east Ontario branch, requesting an interview. … Read the rest

Maple Leafs 3, Senators 2.
This team just continues to be full of surprises. Not just any old surprises though, but surprises that actually don’t make me want to reach for the bottle of vodka sitting on Jessica’s counter. The Kessel line, including Kessel himself, is slightly less of a surprise now–they were involved, once … Read the rest

Roy leaves the Jays, but at least he took my advice.
He’d been threatening to do so according to a report or two for at least a month. Now, he’s done it. Roy Halladay, apparently effective as of this morning, is no longer a Bluejay. In a 3-way deal he ended up going to Philadelphia. On the bright side, we can … Read the rest

Maple Leafs 6, Capitals 3.
Hang on a sec. We won? Again? Three straight? At home? That can’t be right. I mean, I checked and double checked the score–I couldn’t exactly watch Saturday’s game on account of I was busy having a weekend get together, but… still, that can’t be right. Not that I’m complaining, … Read the rest
