But honestly, if they keep playing like they did last night, I'm just going to opt for the extra sleep, or a trip to the gym.
And, in all truthfulness, I feel like I'm watching Titanic over, and over, and over again.
Remember how that charming, handsome young man named Jack saves a lost and forlorn spirit in Rose? Well, over the summer, when I'm hockey-deprived, I'm extremely bored. I'm not a really big fan of baseball; I'll watch it occasionally, and I'll go to Bisons games, but it doesn't affect me one way or another. So I've basically got nothing to attach the sports portion of my heart to. In many ways, then, I am much like Rose, clinging to the railing of the ship, only air separating myself and the icy water below. But then Craig Rivet, Ryan Miller, Thomas Vanek, Derek Roy, and the rest come along and tell me they'll jump with me, and eventually pull me back over the railing.
Then there's the wild love affair, where I become completely infatuated with everything the Sabres do, and we can do no wrong. I mean, we're on the grandest ship in the world, just a girl in love with her team, and her team playing pretty good hockey. Everything is just peachy. And even though
And I even tell them that I plan on getting off of the boat with them. Now that's commitment.
But now we're at the point in the movie when the ship has split in two, and again, the Sabres and I are clinging to the railing as the Titanic bobs in the water and begins to go down, down, down into the depths of ninth place, or worse.
I can only hope that they're going to rewrite the ending so that I don't have to go through the whole "I'll never let go Sabres, I'll never let go." I'd like them to be on the lifeboat with me in the end, and then we can stick it to
But hey, Kate Winslet got what she wanted eventually, right? I mean, she got her Oscar. And if I'm Kate Winslet...
Yeah, I know. Wishful thinking.
Any who, have a nice Wednesday, friends.

Titanic is my all-time favorite movie. Partly because of the romance, but also because I've always had a love for ships/boats/water for some reason. I love that movie. I could sit here and recite the entire script. It's kind of pathetic, but WHATEVER. I'm a total nerd when it comes to the history of the whole event too. Now I want to watch Titanic...
Now I want to watch Titanic...
I know, right?? I don't know why this thought came into my head, but I definitely love that movie, and I really want to watch it too. Maybe tonight...
The analogy this post makes between the Sabres and Titanic is amazing, Cari.
This is an excellent comparison. It describes things perfectly!
That was a fabulous analogy!

You can be Kate Winslet and hopefully the Stanley Cup will be coming to Buffalo soon! *crosses fingers*

Thank you dear! I'm quite surprised at my ability to do that at 6:30 this morning.

It's like the movie was inspired by my life... Or not.

That would be nice... Although, what I was really getting at was Derek Roy.
