My Flyers obssession has only been getting worse, the whole lj board and icons and now podcasts... its all increasing.
I was glad they named Hatcher captain, I have been saying forever how they need a captain, and boom, they realized it and now have one. He'll be really good I think. He is tough and can get the team riled up and angry and energized, something they havent been able to do this whole year so far (okay so its only been a month but still). I am def sad that they passed up Gagne, but I think Hitchcock was right, Gagne isnt quite ready for it, I mean, he's still pretty young, I think he needs some more experience, and he needs to show his leadership in the offensive zone and getting back on d a bit more. He needs to take his skills at goal-scoring, add forsberg's puck handling/offensive set-up/calmness and add zus's efforts in the d, especially on the penalty kills. Zus goes diving all the time and is out pressuring every puck handler. Good efforts man, my hat's off to you. I wouldn't have been surprised if Zus had gotten the c either.
Hatcher has been awesome this season though. With Dejardins being out so often, Hatcher has really become the backbone of the Philly defense. He is out there hitting all night, the toughest guys. He organizes and leads the many rookies on the team and he just puts a tough glove behind the whole flyers' team. go hatcher

My obssession with the Flyers has been in full action lately. Ive been posting, icon-making, painting my fingernails. You know, the last one has created some annoyance. Everyone notices my nails and are like, you know, its not Halloween right? And I reply, yea Im pretty sure I remembered that too.
When I mention hockey, most people, or at least my friends, just shake their heads, tsk tsk. One of the worst had to be my friend Sarah who saw Gagne's poster in my locker (what can I say?) and remarked, oh, like garnier fructise, the shampoo. I kind of cringed and just said, no, no.

Talking to D'Urbano now, cool kid, we have some pretty in-depth chats, and he's one of the few is any people I feel I could completely trust, a high honor, lol. I love being friends with him, and for any of the desperate hopers, I have been overthat whole biz for a long while now, long since I last wrote in here.
I don't know, I think I enjoy not liking anyone, for the moment at least. It keeps me much mroe level-headed, in control and just generally more content. I have noticed lately the great increase in couples, an almost expotential growth. And I am not the only one to confirm these observations.It's actually just a bit annoying, but only at those times when I actually notice it, which thankfully is not all that often.
One reason I am in no rush to contemplate Ring Dance, which is still over 4 months away, more than plenty of time. I don't like anyone right now, I dont see the reason to worry about a date. I dont even bother thinking about it now, the time will come, and I trust my fate in God's hands, that I will find someone. (cheerful)
