Four to Nada, Zip, Zilch, Absolutely Nothing!
Well, the hockey game just ended with a shut-out for the Oilers; 4-0 to be exact. The Edmonton fans were ecstatic, and so was I. I've come upstairs to make my way to bed with a smile on my face that just won't rub off. I can picture God right now, as a matter of fact, making her way out to her porch swing, smiling to herself, too, as she settles into her rocking chair. She'll be reaching out to pluck a fluffy cloud out of the heavens so she can whittle it into the shape of the Stanley Cup. As she works, I imagine she'll be humming the Canadian anthem to herself and carefully brushing away any wisps of white that land on the sleeves of her Oilers' jersey.

You know you've got a problem, don't you? Part hockey fever and part national pride. Here's hoping you get Lord Stanley's cure on Monday.
After Saturday's game, I was elated. I watched the game with friends and then hightailed it off of Whyte Avenue before the people started pouring out.
Last night, I was completely devastated. Almost in tears. They worked so hard and just didn't win. Poor Oilers but hey, there is always next year.
