As it turned out, I wasn’t able to make it to tonight’s Spitfire\/Batallion match, the second of the OHL best-of-seven final.\u00a0 I had looked into buying tickets earlier in the week, but work concerns had me wondering whether I’d be able to get out early enough to make it down the 403 in time for the game.\u00a0 My concern was justified, as it was half past six again tonight before we were able to straggle out of the office.<\/p>\n
I didn’t even get a chance to listen via Internets radio.<\/p>\n
Windsor won, 5-3<\/a>.\u00a0 Game three is back in the Rose City on Monday.\u00a0 I have purchased tickets for Wednesday night’s game, and I am hoping – without jinxing anything – that the J. Ross Robertson Cup<\/a> will be making an appearance on the ice that night.\u00a0 It would be nice to see the Spits book their ticket to Rimouski for this year’s Memorial Cup.<\/p>\n Unrelated bonus humour, brought to you at my expense:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n I have been experiencing some soreness in my right shoulder.\u00a0 Nothing serious, but enough of an annoyance to cause the occasional gasp as a stealthy stabbing pain sneaks up and punches me in the mind.\u00a0 Spouse was theorizing that this might be resulting from Lord Henry’s recent decisions concerning the sleeping arrangements – always cuddled up tight against my ample girth, he has been moving progressively closer to my pillow over the last couple of weeks.\u00a0 I was telling her that on one particular early morning, Henry was nestled into the “crook of my shoulder”.<\/p>\n Spouse looked at me, not comprehending.<\/p>\n “You know, the crook of your shoulder,” I said, pointing to the general area in question.<\/p>\n “What’s the crook of your shoulder?” she asked.<\/p>\n “You know, the crook” I said, frustration beginning to creep into my voice.<\/p>\n “Are you talking about your armpit?” she asked.<\/p>\n “Uhhh, yeah.\u00a0 Armpit.\u00a0 Armpit is a hard word to remember, you know.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" As it turned out, I wasn’t able to make it to tonight’s Spitfire\/Batallion match, the second of the OHL best-of-seven final.
