and season is beginning

OK, well, the break was a helluva lot shorter then i thought it was gonna be. At least for one team anyway. 8 days. From one session to another. Eh, guess its OK, but sure thought we were going to get a break at least until after Christmas.
I decided to do the quiet goalie thing, walked in with head phones in, music blaring in my ears, go dressed from the waist down, and with about 5 minutes left, i finished dressing, went out to the ice, stretched by myself, warmed up the entire time, and then the game started. Did accept a beer before the game in the locker room.
First period i think i had 2 shots on me, and both were more of a shortstop style stop. Did break a damn thumbnail (bent it back and it was bleeding). At the first break, i didn't talk to anyone at the bench, although i damn sure wanted to remind them to NOT throw the puck back up the middle blindly. Seems as if they like doing that. Second period was mostly uneventful, although i was proud of the wrap-around attempt that i stopped. I cant remember why, but i was down on my knees, and i knew he was going to try and do the wrap-around so i just dove back across the crease, laid my stick tight with the post, and sure enough, whack, right into the stick. Shockingly (to me) my bench didn't even make a noise when i did it.
Third period was kinda boring, although i almost blew the shutty when i left the crease and tried to play the puck. Good thing for me, the guy missed the net.
Thinking a shut-out is a great way to start the new season. We play again next week, 2 days after Christmas, so maybe I'll having something more to write about then too.

Job interview went well. Hoping to hear more this week. I'll keep y'all updated.

Have a wonderful Merry Christmas!!
