Black Tuesday

The Edmonton Oilers will never be the same for me again.

For all of you who may have been concerned about me at around 1:50 pm, please be assured I have not lept off the High Level Bridge. I do however find myself a little less inspired to cheer for my favorite team.

Ryan Smyth has been my favorite player for as long as I can remember and today he was traded to the New York Islanders. I don't believe that this is where he will stay but I am distressed that it maybe a long time until I see Ryan play again as he is now playing out East.

Ryan you were the heart and soul of the team and you will be missed greatly. I am sad that you and the team could not come to an agreement that would work for you and there will be some very big skates to fill! Kudos to you for being respectful to Messier's night and remaining silent on the issue until tomorrow!

I am choosing to take the high road with this post in respect with Ryan's choice! I will be wearing my Smyth pins tonight in protest to this travesty!

Musicals

I don't know about you but how great would life be if you spontaneously broke out in to song and dance?
No one would be angry for long. How could you when your tone deaf, rhythmically challenged next door neighbour started to tell you about their day by singing and dancing. People would be laughing all the time.
Nothing would be boring anymore either. You could be standing in a ridiculously long line up for say...your passport. In real life this wouldn't be exciting, in a musical, the whole line would actually be a chorus line! Everyone would have their own theme song. It would be FANTASTIC!

For those of you who still read this...

Well I am finally posting on here again. Life has just been so crazy that it gets hard to post. Not much down time. My semester is so much different this year. I actually am getting 8 hours of sleep which never happens. My classes start a lot later then they did last semester...There is a big difference between your class starting at 1 pm or 8 am when you are taking the bus to school! Midterms start on Thursday and I hope that I do well on them.

I went with Ian to his faculty's formal on Friday and not too toot my own horn but I think that I clean up pretty well...(a shout out to Caryn for doing my hair). I like getting dressed up and fancy...I don't get to do that nearly as often as I would like. I will post pictures when I get a chance.

Feel free to comment...they don't bite!

Ian has other ones that I want we just need to upload them!
