I have decided that I really don't like King's fans

One would hope that I add something to the world- be it good, bad, or indifferent- Me

because they are really annoying, and loud and just generally rude. And no, this has nothing to do with the fact that they beat my beloved Ducks at the game last night... nothing... I mean, you believe me, right?

There we were, Matt, Rick and I (and our very unfortunate empty 4th seat) eating hot dogs, pretzels and nachos just trying to enjoy a hockey game. I'll be the first to admit that I expect Hockey fans to be a bit rowdy. I expect there to be several good fights in the game, so why not some nice heckling from the stands. However, I expect that we are all adults, and therefore can understand how to communicate as such. I must have been the luckiest person in the world, because sitting right behind us I found the most annoying 6 King's fans. You don't believe me (I know you don't) but this woman must have been the spawn of the devil...

Not only the words that came out of her mouth (which are far to vile to write on my good, clean wholesome blog (yes yes, I hear your laughter)) but the sheer timbre of her voice. My ears are STILL ringing. Her voice could probably break glass. Thank g-d all those walls in front of her were plastic. Her and her boyfriend were such assholes. They were vile, and rude and stupid.

I agree with yelling at the refs (sorry dad!). Sometimes they suck it up, and sometimes I just need to express my distaste. However, if you're going to claim that a call was bogus, then you have to have some sort of idea what the hell you're talking about. This guy's favorite line of the night was the all not-to-intimidating "Disney Movie, you're team's named after a Disney movie!" ohhh.. scary. Yes, that's right folks. Not only was there a movie, but Disney actually OWNED the team for a while.

Moving on from the ANNOYING AND DISTINCTLY RIDICULOUS King's fans, the game was quite fun. At the last minute Matt's sister and Brother-In-Law had to bail, so I was lucky enough to be able to ask my new friend Rick. Rick is a really great guy. We work together, though not directly, so when we hang out it's a lot of fun. So far we've seen a movie, been to the game and we have plans to go to a Museum. Yeah! So Rick and I drove in from UCI and Matt met us at the game. Before the game I was even able to convince him that we HAD to have a delectable Mexican bakery treat from Molinos bakery off of Sunkist... yummy.

The game had LOTS of fights in it. Was anyone watching from home? There were at least two all out fist-fights. There would have been more, but the refs have been on this whole lets stop the fights kick... wonder why? Additionally, even though the Ducks lost (which was a first in my personal game attending history) it was a competitive game. It ended up being 4-3 Kings, which shows you that everyone was very involved. Lots of penalties and Power Plays.

When it ended we practically ran from the stadium so we could avoid hitting those annoying King's fans... you should be so happy stupid boy and girl in Row N 224... that's right, I could have taken you...

Contemplation

One would hope that I add something to the world- be it good, bad, or indifferent- Me

Work has been a bit crazy this week, I wonder if it'll get better or worse before May.... this is the worst time it's been in a few months, thank g-d people are tolerating me... Yeah Go To Vail, congrats on your 1-0 win...Interviewing prospective students takes a lot of time, I sure hope my ratio of they got in is better than last year... I'm not that suprised that she was able to climb into the front-loading washing machine... What are you doing for Valentine's Day... Top chef really isn't as exciting this season, Stephan is just to good to make the show any real fun... America's Next Top Model starts up again this month, thanks for that Rustin!... Is the recession going to make it really difficult for me to get a car loan?... The Hyundai Elantra, any thoughts?...Late night bathtime conversations are great, until you wake up the next morning with still wrinkly hands and feet...Co-workers shouldn't walk away from you while you're in the middle of a conversation, especially when you're just trying to collaboratively solve a problem... Should protocol dictate purchase power?... I wonder if I'll ever use AutoCad again, I sort of miss having that software under my belt as a tool.
