I'm thinking that it is odd that, one of main motivators for doing well in school so I am employable is, having extra money to play hockey.
Tonight's game was better than most considering we loss. My plus/minus is even for the night and I even got an assist. I think I won most of the face-offs. One of those lead to the assist. I tired as hell. It always seems that when I have reserve duty for the Coast Guard I have a late game and we're short handed. I don't playing with two centers, but tonight a third would of been nice. Went helmet to helmet with another dude so hard it felt like football. First World problems I guess.
Nothing to bitch about. Frickin' just plugging away in life. Feels good.

Greetings SG Land,
First off, a little civic pride. I really effing love Seattle when it's isn't wet. It has been cold and dry for the most part and It makes for some nice clear views. Public transportation works and good beer is plentiful. I also enjoy the fact I am always a stone's throw from some kind of coffee shop.
As another quarter if school winds down, I become optimistic for the next one. I'm learning geeky stuff and its fun. I could still use some buckle down time.
Overall, I am really digging life and hope that others are as well.
Go NAVY beat ARMY!!!

First world problem: Getting laid off from dead end job, getting worker retraining and unemployment. Not starving, just can't afford to play hockey year round. :-(
Subbed in with my team tonight. My +/- is official shit. I can't remember the last time, if ever, I was -4 for a game. Only one was truly my fault, but being the center means everything is my fault. Let's see if I can bounce back with a Win on Saturday playing Roller Derby.
Stay classy SG land

Hello all. Whoever you may be.
Veteran's Day is now over. My 14th in uniform. I really don't care if anybody is thankful. That's not why I signed up. I signed up partly for the romance of it. And holy Hell, was the first enlistment a romance. It's odd that the decision to be a Marine and the subsequent enlistment almost perfectly mirrored my time with my ex-wife. They are both hot, sexy and effing nuts. When all is said and done I have more time as a Coastie than as a Marine and more time away for the ex than with.
That said, if you're thankful for the less then 1% that serve: No problem, it is my pleasure! If you don't care: That's cool.
And now for tagline shout outs. Go Cougs, Semper Paratus and Semper effing Fi!

Well hell damn.
Nothing to bitch about. Karma/Balance always works. I got a great discount on something I needed at a friends shop, but got a parking ticket in the process. Oh well. Get sick before a game, but we win. Seems like a fair trade. I feel like most of my life has been a trade-off and I'm okay with that to a point. What happens when things go exceedingly well. Will something go really wrong? I'll just try to do right by people and hope that the flow stays sunny.

Good grades, Check.
Beat some games I've had for a few years, check.
Coaching a new team, Check.
All right, I give. I better be extra good and nice or Karma is going to bitch-slap me hard!

Well Hell!
I didn't eff up any of my classes to my knowledge. Grades will be out in a few days. I'm 90% sure I got A's in two of the three. The third, HOLY EFFIN' HELL! it was the hardest true/false test I've ever seen.
Now, what the hell to do for six weeks besides play Black Ops?

School is going well. It always goes well at the halfway point then I do something to get a much lower grade. What will it be this time?
Being obsolete is painful. The ex wife deemed me obsolete. That was years ago. I am much better now.
As a coach, if I walk away I am still obsolete. With the ex, only I can say I was better. If my former team does better, was it me that was holding it back? Even if their competition is inferior, when they win, it is as if I was the reason they didn't win. I can still see their faults but if they win, I am obsolete.
