Jonathan Roy, Patrick’s son. Guess he takes after his dad, eh? Read the Yahoo! article here: Ex-NHL player, Quebec coach Patrick Roy and son suspended for brawl during game. You won’t catch me doing that. I don’t think.

So, this is the first post of 2008 and basically it’s to tell you that I will be on hiatus for . . . oh, I don’t know. Until I get better, anyway. In short (if that’s possible for me), here’s the scoop:

*groan* Another hockey post, you say? Well, it almost feels like my swan song game post, since I won’t be playing for a while. Oh, yeah: I’m having the MRI for the uterine fibroid embolization tomorrow; if I have the energy […]

Today I made some progress: I ordered delivery for dinner, which meant actually talking to someone on the phone and having to interact with the delivery guy. I took a shower for the first time since . . . I don’t know when; a few days at least. So why do I […]

My worst game so far this season, but I shook it off. Although U of C had plenty of skaters that were about the same level as most of ours, they had a few big guns who scored most of the […]

Our season opener, at home! Too bad we lost, but at least the margin was low. The Fighting Squirrels were the team we played against in our very first game last year but at their rink, and we were spanked 8-1 (see “Game […]
