We will (we will) rock you

It's 9:15 and I'm already on campus when I should still be at home asleep.
Why, you ask?
Because I was so damn tired this morning that I didn't even notice that it was 8:30 when I jumped in the shower instead of 9:30. And I really coulda used the hour of sleep.

Last night we started our hockey season for intramurals, which is part of the reason I'm so tired. I had a brutal game, but it was better that I expected, considering I haven't hit the ice since that game in the spring when I fucked up my foot. We ended up in a tie, which isn't bad for the first game.

We had a few new additions to the team this year - one guy we knew from first year, one guy's brother, and some guy who apparently used to play in the OHL. We also lost a few from last year, but the base of the team is still the same. The hilariou thing about last night was this guy who bragged about playing for an OHL team - he was complete trash. Just horrific. I bet he regrets bragging now, and we all know the guy who brought him in feels like a complete idiot now. I guess we're stuck with him for the year though; it's too bad my roomie Steve bitched out this year.

He played last year and did fine, but this year his main excuse for not playing was the fact that he didn't want to look bad in front of the new guys we brought onto the team - somewhat ironic given the current situation. He also claimed that because he has a job this year he won't have the time for it. Even though it's about a 3 hour commitment per week. He'll just stay at home playing Score Poker or Perfect Dark anyway, so what's the difference?
He'd better not show his ugly mug in the dressing room, because everyone thinks he's a huge pussy for not playing.

In other news, I'm swamped with work right now. I've got 3 exams next week, then a two week break before my next two. And this weekend my bro, dad, and some cousins and uncles are down for the Western football game and drinking. So I know I'm not gonna get much done in the way of school work. And my lab work is ensuring that I never get to sleep in past 9:30 (and some days it even gets me to campus an hour early... fuck). I did take a four hour nap yesterday though, which was pretty sweet.

I guess I'd better go get a coffee and something to eat.
