Sorry about kitty, **rigs**. Hope she’s better very soon. Hugs. Glad you’re still having fun, **kai**. Happy vacation, **MBG**! I have fun watching the odd sports event (both live and on TV), but I’m not fanatical about any of them. I don’t think. Arghhhh. My internet is broken AND I had to call a plumber this morning because I turned the shower on and the handle broke in my hand. At least I was able to get a plumber here today (it was stuck on hot, which wasn’t terribly useful). I thought the problem was my modem, but I’ve just traded it in and it’s still not working. So, they’re coming to visit me Thursday night. So I’m at the coffee shop around the corner, drinking a latte and using their internet. Gotta get back home to work in the garden for a while, then I’m off to listen to this week’s concert. Probably won’t be back till at least tomorrow night. Hugs and good wishes to everyone. GT ---

I stopped to get gas for the slow trip home, and I lost _ALL_ forward gears in the Foomobile. It came home on a tow truck. :mad: $12-1500 to get the tranny rebuilt. It’s only money… ---

Hockey hockey hockey! HOCKEY HOCKEY HOCKEY! There…now the thread is back on track! 😃 **Doggio** , I’ve already marked my calendar with all the games! I am disappointed that we don’t have a New Year’s Eve game this year. That has been my go-to party for the last 5 years. However, we will be able to watch the Winter Classic, then head out to the New Year’s Day game. Opening night is my birfday! Seat selection in 2 weeks! In non hockey related news…I’m getting married! **rigs** , I hope kitty is OK. **Vbob** , I hope your car troubles aren’t too bad and you get back on the road again soon. ---

Does anyone else read **Hockey Monkey’s** moniker as **Hockey Mockey** or is it just me? I made chocolate chunk cookies with oatmeal flour. They’re very good. ---

I’m a complete 180 from Bridezilla. We are going to the magistrate and we just ordered me a [$60 engagement ring](http://www.qvc.com/qic/qvcapp.aspx/view.2/app.detail/params.item.J142852.desc.Verragio-Diamonique-Sterling-Signature-Lumino-Set-Scroll-Ring). We are quite practical. Season tickets and a fenced backyard are much better uses of our money right now. ---

And I still have to figure out which Checkers jersey to get, there will be road trips.😃 Oh and if Taverna Agora does Greek Night for New Years Eve, go. It rocks(I was up till 0300 carting drunks home:D). Worked, came home, ate, sipping a beerverage. {{{{{{ **rigs** }}}}}}}}}} > [@kopek](#): > > And heads do sort of ooze a bit after a few weeks.
