Hockey Playoffs

What's red, white and blue, and plays golf in May?

Yikes indeed. I actually put this post up when the game was still in the second period. I was pretty well prepped to accept another entry in my team's history of playoff disappointments as soon as they lost game 5. Does your husband follow the sport, or is he one of those Canadians who left primarily because he doesn't care about hockey?

Oh no, he loves hockey and has been following along. I like it but I don't have the patience to watch that many games any more.

Ah. Then he will understand (though possibly laugh at) my pain.

He didn't laugh. He was as shocked by the loss as anyone.

Yeah - the recriminations are pretty high around here right now. Everyone expected this to be the team's year, and flopping like this is just unacceptable. It's particularly bad because this was a golden moment for Hockey to step up and be a big deal in DC, where it's usually an afterthought. And it really tarnishes the team and their big stars to go out this way.

This has been a bad month for me, and the Hockey was supposed to be a nice escape...

I hope this new month is an improvement over the last.
