My shoulder is getting better! Seems as though I'm a new fan pf physio therapy. I was told to heat the shoulder (hot water) and then ice. Go back and forth for 5 times...2 min at a time. Last time I played I hah no pain when I was going up to make a glove save. Didn't matter cause we got shelled...8-4. Shots were 64-16 in favour of the other guys. My GAA has now shot up again to 3.2 ....a jump of 1.2 a game over games.

Not cool!

Now I need to find some winter gear. The temp in Istanbul as of 7:20am... 2 degrees!! Holy shite that's so cold compared to what my body is used to here. Only 9 more days left! Excited but I'm actually more anxious to come back for the reason that I can then start the countdown to see my dad. 12 more working weeks :)

I stayed up late thinking of something last night as I was super excited at the thought of my new pads. A question came to my mind. Why the hell did I ever let my life get to a point where during a span of 4 years I didn't even put on my goalie gear to play once?! I'm not mad at my ex ...no way am I faulting her ...I'm just kinda upset at myself and in hindsite.... I'm just dumbfounded by the thought of it. How on earth did that happen?...to give up stopping pucks for 4 years??...it's too attached to my childhood and too sacred.

Wow...that's a very horrifying thought.

Doesn't matter where in the world I am. I need my hockey fix. It's such a drug to me...I really can't imagine my life without it. That's why the next job I go to has to have hockey nearby to play...doesn't really limit my choices either. I can play in South Korea, Bangkok, Singapore, Malasia, Beijing, Dubai, Oman...not to mention if I score and International teaching job in most European countries.

some of my bestest memories have been associated with hockey. Hearing my dad cheer my team on at games...the smell of a rink...the lockeroom humour. Highschool especially...those were awesome. Never really could figure out why a group of a few people always switched ends every period to where I was playing goal. Ahhhh good times...good times.

...come on postoffice guy...hurry up with my pads!
