We finally won a game! Prior to this we had “all been winners because we were having fun” but tonight we actually won. Neener neener!
I scored our team’s first goal of the game, early in the 1st period. It was a nice goal, too, I’m told. I didn’t actually see myself score; I skated up, shot on Claire, then kept skating through with my momentum and only learned I’d scored from the ref hand signals and team cheering.
After the game, Peter and I went to Ausiello’s Tavern with the other team’s coach, Shella, and her girlfriend Gigi. Lisa from No Clue was also there. It was so much fun; Shella and Gigi are hilarious! I don’t think I stopped laughing the whole time.
Ausiello’s:
Hooray for good hockey!
Edit: I found out this morning that April had been taking pictures of our game! Check out this one of me…I actually look like I know what I’m doing. š Awesome picture, April, thanks! š

Congrats on the goal, and yep, you do look like you know what you’re doing. Maybe that’s because you do know what you’re doing? š
Sorry I had to miss it, but this means we’ll just have to do it again next week so that I can see what a team win on the scoresheet feels like.
How I long to have been born with the skills required to navigate ice on 1/8″ steel blades. Congrats on your goal Carolyn, and the great night out you had afterwards. š
That is too cool. Do you realize you’re in the majority of the photos? Apparently, all I ever do in hockey is stand around. :p
