This year feels a bit off and I'm not enjoying it as much. The other night I went out to watch the game and I was sitting at the bar watching the game, which by the way, stayed 0-0 until the last few minutes of the third period. I had my earbuds in listening to the game so no one would try and chat me up, but OH no!
Guy taps me on the shoulder, "What are you listening to?"
Me, looking at him like he has lost his damn mind and pointing at the tele, "Avs"
Guy, "Oh yes, I was wondering why you were watching the game and had in your headphones.....blah, blah, blah...."
Me, "Yes, I like listening to the game and this one doesn't seem to be getting anywhere"
Guy, "Blah, blah, blah, explain to me how this season is going to be played...."
ARE YOU FUCKING SERIOUS!?!?! I'M NOT GOING TO FUCKING EXPLAIN HOCKEY TO YOU WHILE I'M OBVIOUSLY TRYING TO WATCH THE GAME!!!
I put back in my earbuds and look up and we'd scored 2 goals.

I fucking missed them.
Sigh, at least we won that one.
