Hockey is back! Too bad we lost tonight! Agh, that was upsetting. It was 3-2 in a shootout with the new rules, but at least they got a point with the 'tie'. It was goin so good too...leadin all the way into the 3rd period, esp with the Lindros goal to take it with like a minute to go. Dammit. It'll be a love-hate thing.
Oh well, that's the Leafs. Back to the days of ups and downs, near-heart attacks, and chicken wings ;) And talkin about games like it was SUCH an important thing.
We were at Shoeless Joe's and got a round table in the back with the booth seating so the 5 of us were pretty much screamin and yellin like we were at home. Well we would've done that anyway at any bar but here we had a couch bench to lay out on and nobody else beside us :) My Tom Collins was pretty much gin and ice...I dunno whether to thank them or curse them for that.
Oh my good god, L did the funniest thing I have ever seen in my life. Let me first say that during the night, L was kinda out of it cuz she was tired from work and had a headache and everythin she was doin was just not right :P We were walkin towards the door cuz we were jettin. It was L first, then everybody else, then me takin up the rear. The bathrooms are at the side right by the doors and some guy was comin out. He and L almost bumped into eachother but they stopped themselves just in time. But I dunno what the hell it was that L did, I dunno how to even describe it. She did that jerky stutter-step that you do when you try to stop from colliding with someone when it's a bit too late, then she spun around, stutter-stepped again when she saw that Vick, Alex, and Dar were right behind her and thus had nowhere to go, then nearly fell and hit the ATM machine and they had to catch her LOL And the entire time, she had this wide-eyed and lost look on her face. If ONLY you could've seen it! It was like one of those robots who keep walkin til they hit a wall and keep hittin those walls til they find their way out. I'm havin such a hard time writin this without laughin. I kill myself every time I replay it in my mind, haha. Anyway, the guy was like, "Sorry! I'm so sorry!" after the near-collision. Then when she did her crazy dance, the guy's eyes got big cuz he saw this all happen too, haha. It was a lot of commotion but I didn't catch it all cuz I was blocked by Vick and them. I think the guy had to help her too cuz his hands were out. Oh man, did we laugh. The guy was laughin too and I can only imagine cuz I would've been like, wtf?? We just had to be like, she's drunk, she's drunk.
Anyway, I miss goin to the bars on Tues/Wed and some Saturdays to watch the games and drinkin and havin wings. The Leafs season is on, baby. I can be such a guy, haha.
