Yesterday: I had classes as usual, but I had to go w/ my dad to the eye doctors. Blah! Since it was a different office, I couldn't go to Whole Foods to go online and listen to the Wildcats/Titans game. I guess I didn't miss much b/c they lost 4-2. I did watch some of the Canucks vs. Flames game & the Canucks won 2-1.
The Pens play today, but I'll miss the game b/c I have classes (and I can't even listen to the game b/c there is no Windows player installed in any of the computers) plus I'll be at the show tonight. Speaking of shows...
Tonight is The Academy Is... with Panic! At The Disco, Hellogoodbye & Acceptance. I'm more than effin stoked!!!! Hopefully I can meet up w/ winterandreason or anyone going to that show.
Tomorrow the Kings play against the Wild. I so cannot wait! I miss my Kings boys so much!
Well, I'm gonna end this now. No need to comment since it's a stupid entry. The next entry shall be better. Till then, have a wonderful day. :D
Edit
Boo! I forgot to add that the Wildcats have a game today which I obviously have to miss b/c of class. Boo!
And I forgot to post my letter to the Canucks as well as Maxime Ouellet...
Dear Vancouver Canucks,
I am aware that you guys are one short of a goalie all thanx to Dan Cloutier's injury. Why did you silently have to recall Maxime from Manitoba? Why couldn't you wait until this Saturday or perhaps gotten someone else to be the back up goalie and bench warmer?
You just crushed hockeychix98's dreams of meeting one of her favorite players since she's going to the Moose vs. Knights game on Friday night. She was looking forward to seeing Maxie.
Anyways, thanx a lot for taking Maxie away from the Moose... And not making an announcement for it. :(
Love/Hate,
Moi
Dear Maxime Ouellet,
I hope you get sent back to Manitoba this week so that your #1 fan can see you and even meet you when the Moose comes to Omaha. ;)
If not, hopefully next time. Maybe we can both meet you as well as Luc Bourdon. ;)
Anyways, cya at Anahiem on April 2nd. Till then, best wishes! :)
Luv,
Moi
