Ramblings

The upside about not having to work - more time with my dentist - whee hah! He was excited about that. Well, at least before we spent 3.5 hours working on one little thing. I go in next week to get my root canal done (the one that's been pending since last December). Should be a grand time. One of the faculty members put me on penicillin to fight the gum infection which I've probably also had since December.

Training camp officially starts in 2 weeks and the first practice is on the 20th. I'm quite giddy about it.

BTW, Sarah Palin needs to stop calling herself a "hockey mom". Yes, we get it, it's cold in Alaska, but don't drag my sport of choice down with you. You gotta know that Gary Bettman probably fantasizes about her.

Oh, I am sorry for that... really, really, sorry.

Anyone who wants to (and anyone that wants to play again) has approximately 26 hours to submit a prompt. Details are here. Give me a reason to procrastinate on the job applications.

Speaking of - I applied for two more positions this week - one for a typist/office person for L.A. County and one for an accounting position here in the Valley. Keep your fingers crossed.

And the final question for the weekend... ARE YOU READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL?

I'm also in the sometimes distressing quest for a job, hope you have better luck than me so far!

I have another couple of weeks before going from being very picky in the job search to being "if it pays I'll take it". I really hope it doesn't come to that, but there hasn't been much I've liked so far.

Good luck with your job hunt!

I hate that she keeps using the phrase 'hockey mom' too. No one says 'baseball mom'. Hmmf. (Tee-hee.) And yeah, talk about disparaging the sport. Booo!

Good luck with the job hunt!

Thank you. I need all the luck I can get right now.

So does this mean I have another person who's going to understand what my hockey posts are all about?

My husband's Canadian, so um... Yes? I'm still not glued to the screen during the multiple forced totally voluntary viewings, but I really like going to see it LIVE! Woo! Now that I can get behind. *nods*

The move to Toronto will be my ultimate test: Hold an intelligent conversation about at least three different hockey teams! Bonus points for correct technical term usage.

Isn't it part of their citizenship test? ;-)
