Scorpions vs Flyers

About an hour right before the game, my stomach decided to lay siege to my entire body. Thank goodness for vicodin. I took a 1/2 a pill and after about 15 minutes, all was well in the world. I got to the rink about 25 minutes before the game. I was a little nervous that the sub that I picked up at sticktime would be waiting around for me. But nope. As I got dressed, I started wondering if he had decided not to show. Then we were dressed and waiting and still, no Ray. I apologized to Petah. Hey, he might have tried to text me, but my phone only gets calls. I was trying not to stress. Petah was trying not to get upset. Having to make changes in the line up was causing some discontent with the guys. I kept a watch out for him to walk in the front door as the Zamboni was finishing up. Thank goodness we were on rink 1.
Then, he appeared....hooray!!! I jumped up and down. Not in front of him. I told him which locker room we were in and then went to ask Petah about a jersey. Now, I'm excited!!! I'd like to say that I got a goal. That is the purpose of the blog. I'd like to say that I got an assist. I actually had a perfect pass to James in the middle, but no goal. Then there was the time that Adam was yelling at someone to get on the ice and I jumped in and got turned around and caused an off sides. Oops!
My sticktime acquisition got 2 goals. He is much too good for Bronze, but a little out of shape. Even so, he was hella sexy to watch skating around out there. There is nothing more attractive than someone who can skate who also has good puck control. More beautiful than any figure skating routine, hands down. Dustin, the phenom skater also got a goal. It is only his second game. Yes of course I'm jealous. Allegra was amazing, but no goals. It wasn't from lack of shooting, that's for sure. She was all over the place, as usual. She keeps saying that she is still getting used to being on the offense. I think that she looks like she was born to it. Not quite sure if James likes this or not. He is used to being the one in the spotlight and he is very much overshadowed by Allegra.
Bob had to make a point of saying that I'm doing great as a wing and it's the position for me. Well, for now it is. I've come to terms with it. But, I hunger for D. I know it is the place for me. So they can make me play wing, but they won't make me give up on D.
