I’m kicking myself.
You see, I went home for Christmas. ‘Home’ for me is Calgary. I thought long and hard about trying to reschedule my flight so that I could stick around for the Flames/Canucks game. Maybe even score some tickets. But the idiot down in Detroit made me re-think that, as I figured it’d be close to impossible to get rebooked anytime soon.
Naturally, I woke up at 7am to fly home only to find out my flight had been cancelled. Did I mention that my parents had gone down to Cancun the day before and my brother (who drove me to the airport this morning) is busy preparing for a move to BC, which means I was stuck at Calgary International? Yeah.
So I got home around 10:00 PM EST, enough to watch the third period and that’s about it.
I missed Raymond’s hat trick.
I missed Kiprusoff letting in a goal that even Dan Cloutier could’ve made.
I missed the (self proclaimed) ‘best fans in the NHL’ booing their team off the ice. Wait, scratch that last one.
Well, I guess one out of three ain’t bad.
Got an Avatar review in the pipeline, along with some other stuff. Holidays are a good time to slack, yes? Thought so.
Hope Santa was good for everyone!
