Hmm bullsh*t anyone?

So something that has long bothered me and my mother is during the Tips games anytime someone is "randomly" picked to recieve a prize (some lame like flowers and some super awesome like a signed stick or jersey!" they are almost always in seats 1 or 2 aka the aisle seats and even when they say something like section 205 row 13 seat 6 somehow that seat is still on the edge or super close to it! My mom is writing a much needed letter because dammit we deserve a chance just as much as an aisle-sitter to win those prizes even if we are in seats 15, 16, 17 and 18!!!

I also don't like the new song they play at the beginning during the video they play right before the anthem...does anyone know the name of the old song they played earlier this year I really want to find it?

Also I know I am not the first, nor will I be the last, to complain about the poor choice of song for "dance for your dinner"- I mean WHAT THE HELL like Laura said we are not in the south so why the hell do they insist on playing that obnoxious "Cotten-Eyed Joe" song? WHY?!?! I thank GOD I smoke ciggarettes because it means I am usually not there to hear it though I always catch the end of it and it's enough to make me want to choke someone out! Something else thats bullsh*t? The winner of "dance for your dinner" is never someone who actually danced well or humorously: it's simply whoever the camera lands on at the end of the song even if they are hardly even moving! I mean, come on, if you're going to subject us to this tortue at least be fair and pick someone to be winner because of their moves not because the song is about to end.

Do they think we are stupid? They have to know that some fans, especially SEASON TICKET HOLDERS, come more than once and thus will catch on to their unfair antics...so since section 119 is the most hardcore of all the fans in the arena I feel that we all should all write a letter and let those bastards know we are on to them and dammit we want our fair chance at those prizes!!!!!

A Tale of Two Sarah's

There are two Sarah’s. One is the real me and the other is the imposter or the ‘Addict’ Sarah. For the last four years sadly anyone who’s met or been around me has known the phony. The Addict Sarah is not a nice person. She lies, steals and hurts those around her, especially the people she loves and cares about. She is consumed with only one thing, well two: getting high and getting more and both of those activities take up all her time. Deep down she is not evil, though she might come off that way, she is just in pain and unable to cope and desperate to feel nothing, to feel only numbness. But she is unable to keep from hurting people in her quest to attain that and hurting others only makes the guilt and shame worse.

Sadly some people that have come into my life have only ever known the Addict Sarah. Thankfully people that were in my life before A.S. are still in my life because after Addict Sarah came around they really had no reason to stay. She was a self destructive time bomb destroying everything in her path.

It’s been almost two months since the Real Sarah came back. Such a short time yet an eternity to those of us living by the saying, “One day at a time”. The Real Sarah has been welcomed back with open arms and showered with love and support which the Addict Sarah would have shunned and turned her back on. Even though the Real Sarah is glad to be back she sometimes feels out of place in her own skin and has had some trouble getting re-adjusted. I’m learning how to deal with all those feelings and emotions I tried for so long to deny or suppress with drugs and it’s hard and sometimes I fucking hurt so bad I crave for anything to make it stop. But then I remember even when I was using those feelings were always still there boiling just below the surface threatening to erupt and spill over. Instead of working through them properly I just kept putting all that off by getting high so they were always still there, lurking in the background.

9-11-2008 was the first day the Real Sarah came back and the last time Addict Sarah was seen. I work daily, hourly even, to keep that fake from returning.

Because she is just that, a fraud, a phony that nobody likes…especially not the Real Sarah.

Our Boys

So I gotta say this season has been blowing my mind I am absolutely loving it! Sometimes the games are so close that I am literally a nervous wreck almost at times covering my eyes and peeking through my fingers! But as anyone else noticed that the ‘Tips are GREAT at getting a much needed goal last minute? Like literally? I love that about them! I feel like they are a whole different team than last year-even our fav Tip to hate Potuer has impressed me at times. I do desperately miss Jonathan Harty and the way he checked guys left and right like no other-and when he threw his gloves down on the ice look out! Always a great fight would follow…

Of course the game against the Edmonton Oilers was a bit of a let down…I think everyone was still riding high from the games against Tri-Cities and Spokane not to mention I’m sure the boys were a bit tired from the night before. They played their hearts out and gave it 120% all night including the 2nd period which, at times, they haven’t always done.

I feel bad for Tom who without a doubt missed the best game of the season thus far! However I think we are in for an exciting season GO TIPS!

First Time

Huh wow my own blog eh? I decided to start one after visiting Laua's but I have to be really honest-who is really going to be interested in what I have to say? I guess only time (and entries) will tell....
