I honestly lost count of how many peaches and nectarines I ate today, but I would guess around ten, with a few extra apricots thrown in, because when it comes to summer fruit I am a bottomless pit, and while it is not yet summer, per se, it is definitely summer in my fridge (and apparently my belly

I have no interest in hockey, I fully admit, but did I ever tell you my younger son used to play roller hockey? he was dam good because he is an amazing skater, but truthfully, he was too nice for hockey. After he checked someone, he would stop to make sure they were all right, lol. Eventually, he realized it was the skating he loved, not the actual hockey and he switched to extreme roller blading.

Being the witness for the ketuba signing is very awesome. I had almost forgotten that I did that years ago for a friend I had known since Junior Hign.

I am absolutely not shocked your kid is talented at yet another thing, ha. And aw, that's a sweet story. I will mention that there's a lot of that going on in the NHL too! Like, obviously they need to be able to hit other guys hard, but it's hilarious to see videos where they're mic'd up and hear the actual conversations and negotiations that go on on the ice sometimes.

And yeah, it's definitely an honor to be chosen. I look forward to the wedding :)

There really is no polite way to explain to non-fannish people that you're thrilled that this kid got drafted first, and you can't wait to see him get kill it over the next couple years in Ontario, and you would be overjoyed to see him drafted as a high first round pick to the Show...and there is absolutely no possible way you want to meet the teenager you might be reading porn about in three years.

Fannish problems are not most people's problems.

I mean, I honestly do not think there's any chance I'll ever read porn about this dude, but. While I'm good with compartmentalization, right now he's definitely not a dude I want to see in real life. Not that I would have anything to say to him anyway lolol he is literally half my age.

Hi hi, just checking into LJ for the first time in more than 6 months I think, but I wanted to see the release date for Captive Prince bk 3 and then decided to look at the flist. You have such great entries, just wanted to tell you that. Also, I'm cheering you for shutting that hockey dude down by being polite and knowledgeable. Ugh, that kind of condescension is so infuriating to me. I've never had a man test me like that, but a lot of times they've expressed surprise that my level of knowledge is more than 'oooh, Tyler Seguin's muscles!!' Which is itself so insulting, and usually I'm enough of an asshole to work the conversation around to Corsi or something so that they have to ask. I met an actual NHLer at a party last month and he was soooooo great to talk to. He and his girlfriend were jokingly complaining about all the weddings they went to last summer and have to go to this summer, and then they reminisced about the last one they went to and how the guy almost punched Patrick Kane out when they were seated at the table and he

Hey! :D

Haha, choir!hockey dude does have a good soul, but he's definitely one of the rare cases of people I've encountered who are astonished at my being into hockey because I'm a girl - 98% of the time, people are shocked because I'm Israeli, and into this rather than any other sport in the universeOmg I want to know so much about this NHLer and what happened there, hahaha, I live for this kind of gossip. Can you PM me who is was? Do we know when this wedding took place, ie pre- or post-girlfriend? This... has very little bearing on how I enjoy Kaner and his characterization in fandom, but RL tidbits like that are always fascinating
