Double Feature

Firstly I'd like to publicly apologise for putting such an inapropriate picure on my blog, as a 25 year old MAN I should know better.

Secondly today was a kindof a big first for me.

I've always hated team sports, in high school I liked Swiming and weight training, in fact I did more PE credits than I had to but I NEVER did any team sports.  Once I accidently got signed up for a class called (if you can belive it) "Team Sports" I guess a buddy of mine heard them call my name on the roll and when I told him it was a mistake he was leik "dude drop the other class, basket ball is fun"...   

I'd rather run though the school in short shorts and a pink headband with the song "maniac" blareing than do somthing as offensive as play with all the dorks who think their "B-balls" skills are gonna be worth somthing some day.

Any way that all changed tonight when I enganged in my first ever pseudo-game of hockey.   I just started learning to skate this winter and have gone maybe 6-8 times but I'm starting to feel fairly comfortable moving forward with a puck and shooting.  As far as that crazed backward or hard stoping stuff (you know that stuff that is really cool looking and looks really fun?) Yeah I can't do that.  But you know what I can do?!   SCORE!!!  

Ok this is how it was.  Caleb passed my the puck and like 900 miles an hour and I was skating at probably 225 mph or like 235, (it gets hard to tell when you move that fast)  and I santched the puck off the melting Ice (that's annoying when you're so fast you ju

st leave melted Ice behind you, I think the pros' have to use refrigerated skates so the other player's don't get wet)

So I was blitzing up toward the net the only thing between me and it was the puck and all of a sudden, this uh... tozier girl named after a lake I think (like the lake of melted ice I was leaveing behind me "lol" <== (I HATE it when the ATB does that; and I know you all read my blog, I'm just dissapointed you always check tobi's world first )) She had this look on her face liek "Oh its Just Aaron, he's really cool and smart and funny, but I'll be able to stop his puck for sure."  But guess what sports fans I Deked left the deked right then started the crosby spin like the erroneous tornado wearing really classy clothes and BOOM (that was a sonic boom btw) the puck come flying out she tried to swat it out of the air with her wiley girl moves but she was too slow, the net came flying a part and was singed and smoldering slightly around a blowing ball sized hole behind which was only the shattered plexi-glass of said Toziers hopes and dreams.  

And now the rest of the story:

Yeah we played a little game, it was pretty fun, jordan and I were headed towards the boards together one time and he screeched at me like a banchee and scared me, that was annoying.  Its funny how normaly he's just a goof ball who doesn't scare me a bit but on the ice it's like he has wings and I'm just a fat kid with a broken leg.  

There was another time when the puck got passed up between me and lisa toward her goal, we both shot after it (she skates about as good as I do, probably better) everyone was yelling "Go lisa he's all yours" we both shot after the puck and I almost had her but (wanna know what an excuse looks like kids, pay attention here) the ice was so messed up my skates kept getting pulled weird angles and I just couldn't get going so she grabed it a pulled it away.  I've never had so much fun with her as tonight.

My goal against kluane was more like, she's standing in front of the goal, I pull up really slowly and just fire it off in some random direction and I accedetly went though.  If she'd turned her skates side ways it probably wouldn't have gone in.
