bitching

The men's hockey team is pissing me off. We have not played a good period of hockey since the second game. Okay yes, in the game today we scored three goals in the first period, but in my opinion we were not dominating the way we should be. And the two periods after that were terrible.

Oh and the Swiss team, the ones who beat us, tied Italy today. WTF?? Where is the Canadian domination?

All I can say is that some of the leaders need to step up and show some work ethic out there, and get the youngsters fired up. Oh and learning how to pass to members of our team would be good too. And how to maintain puck possession in the attacking zone.

I can't watch the game tomorrow because of school which is bugging me but I can't see a way around it. Unfortunately, I have an important paper due on Friday and I'm in that class when the game starts. Bugger.

Did you know that mold is the number one household killer? And I think that I have mold growing in my bathroom. When my basement suite was created by the former owners of this house, they slapped the bathroom together and instead of using proper drywall, they used wooden slats, almost like outdoor siding. Unfortunately, it's cracking in many spots and I have a sneaky suspicion that underneath is going to be scary. And when I spoke to my friends upstairs about it (they own the house and I rent from them) it didn't seem to be a very high priority. In fact, she actually said that she is more concerned about the house rotting from the inside rather than my lungs, and that she won't be able to get to it for at least four weeks. I'm thinking of fixing it on my own and then she can pay me back for the materials. I mean really - is my health worth a few bucks?

Especially since I've quit smoking. Yay!!! Now I need to get my cardio up so that I don't embarrass myself during the Sun Run at the end of April.
