So I have decided when to write in order to keep me on kinda schedule cause if I don't, I'll only post once a year. That time is in my class - it may take me 2 hours or all class to do but leading the busy life like I do and I know my avid readers await my posts. (HA! Another joke!)
Speaking of class, its going well we are almost at the midterm. One pet peeve of mine is every class I'm in there's some idiot that must prove his/her answers are right even though its cut and dry - only one way to do it. (I'm studying Financial Accounting. Seriously, only one way to do it.) Buddy, face it - you were wrong, correct your mistake and get over it. Now we have to spent have the class explaining over and over why you're wrong and the teacher is right. So aggravating.
As most of you know, I talk about my hockey a lot so tonight is no exception. This season has been a weird one to say the least - it started as awful as the last one finished and has slowly gotten better from week to week. That being said, my team in front of me is about the weakest its ever been so it means I have to be pretty much perfect every game in order for my team to win. (And I am far from perfect!) So safe to say it is more of a challenge but it keeps me on my toes and very, very busy on the ice.
Two blog posts in a month; I'm on my way to being a better blogger already!

Horrible blogger. Yes, yes I am.
Wow its been almost a year since I posted.
I have been meaning to write (honestly, I have!) but when it comes right down to it something usually takes precedence, whether it be a video game, hockey or just plan laziness. I also feel that when I write it has to be long and well thought out. With me having Sarah edit these posts so that you guys can understand what exactly I'm trying to say and my grammar and spelling is the worst on the planet.
So my plan is to write more shorter and more to the point posts, mixed in with long winded ramblings. With me having alot to say and wanting to share it with you all and with the shorter posts I can ease the work on Sarah cause I know how much she loves to edit these. I think she has had to capitalize more I's than any one in history. I am also using this blog to improve my grammar and what not. This post really did have a purpose over than me making excuses for not posting.
Hmm now where to start me and Pookey hit our two year anniversary just the other day thinks are looking much better than when we started two years ago.
Now schooling on the other hand kinda hit a bit of a snag when first started my CGA my college degree was good enough to get it. Due to recent changes you need to have a university degree that just means an extra year of schooling. So instead of 34 I will be 35 when I get my CGA. Good thing about it is at the end of the day it will earn me 30 to 50k more a year.
I think I'm going to end this post here cause well its almost time for the gym and the Bulls season has started again so there is plenty to do. cause now if I don't go to the gym I feel crappy and I'm starting to see the transformation of my beer keg to a six pack. (Ha! Lame joke).

My Monthly
Well just like women get their visit from Aunt Rose every month, you get a blog post from me. The only problem is that I'm late by a week so I'd have most woman wondering if they're pregnant. ;-)
So my birthday is at the end of the week and for the first time in a long time, I am really looking forward to it. My birthdays in the past have been very disappointing. This year Pookey and I are going up to Guelph to watch my beloved Bulls play. She also gets to see one of her best friends. So its kinda a win-win for both of us and I think we both need to get away from the city. Our work has become routine and my hockey is not going well like it was last year.
Its kind of a frustrating time for me in regards to hockey; I'm really struggling to find my game back to the level it was at last year. I've had moments within a game that go really well, but the others are right in the shitter. So a break will be good for me to re-focus and bring it all together for playoffs. (I hope!)

fridays five got me thinking
I was writing my answers to Friday 5 (last week) and it got me thinking about something and this topic I never thought I would ever talk about. OK you ready for it? MARRIAGE. Yeah that's right, I said that supposedly awful word in a guys life.
Now until about 6 months ago I never thought I would get married, the thought of one woman for the rest of my life was plain scary and I was always wondering if the grass was greener on the other side. The more I think about it, I think it was the person I was with at the time really scared me. I was somewhat content with her but never really wanted to settle down, let alone have kids. Well that all changed when I met Sarah; I can really see myself settling down and raising a family.
Its even got to the point now I wanna contribute to our wedding plans and give Sarah her dream wedding. One of the big things that's changed with it is I really wanna be apart of the planning process. Now ultimately it is the brides day but I really want it to be our day and it be something we both will remember for the rest of our lives.
Most of my memories in my head that always will remember are sports related, like I can tell you exactly every goal in my two hockey championships. I can even go right down to every last detail. now those memories are being added to by Sarah. Things like our first kiss, how we met and the first time we made love. At first I was scared of these memories cause of my manly ego was trying to tell me this is what should be here. (none of this sappy stuff)
Now I wonder if I'm getting older (nearly 30!) and feel the need to start a family or am I truly, deeply in love for the first time in my life. It is a little scary to think about because my lives worries are taking a backseat to that of Sarahs. I now am more concerned about her worries, her fears and trying to make her as happy as I am when I'm with her (looks over shoulder for the sap police).
I know she is struggling with her ambition and what she wants to do with her career and life for that matter. I really wanna be there when she figures it out (I know she will). I really hate to see her suffering over it and really hurts me inside to see it. The best thing I can tell Sarah is be patient and it will come to you. So I sit here writing about marriage and my undying love for someone. I'm beginning to wonder if I'm crazy, but all I have to is look over to her baby blue eyes and I know its all worth it in the end.
