Monday officially started the "break your neck" season. I refer to it by this name because too many times guys will snap their neck by turning to catch a glace at the woman in the short skirt, running clothes, etc. Women are finally free from the winter/spring confines and figure, hey now is a great time to show what I've been hiding under that ridiculous sweater all winter.
Just be careful when you're driving out there. At least twice yesterday in Rock Creek park I nearly took out other cars ala NASCAR b/c of what some runners were wearing. Ahhhh DAMN!
Since my last ex, I've been searching for a "healthy" cookie to replace the oatmeal/flax seed/brown sugar ones I've had stored away. I think I may have found a good replacement.
Another friend (who btw refuses to publicly acknowledge reading this blog! haha), dropped off a great replacement. This is made with oatmeal/flax seed/apple sauce/chocolate chips. Hopefully these will curb my addiction to ice cream/frozen yogurt. FrozenYO got me again last night for another 1/2 pound of french vanilla. Those bastards!
In Hockey, two females were elected to the Hall of Fame yesterday. Cammi Granato and Angela James received the phone call late Monday, giving them permission to enter the hallowed gates in Toronto.
I'm torn on this subject. On one hand it's great they recognize Granato for basically breaking down the women's barrier in professional/international hockey competition. James was supposedly the greatest player so far, and has no relation to LeBron. The other half of me thinks, SO WHAT? Has anyone ever seen a professional women's hockey game, besides in the Olympics?
Their contribution is undoubtedly great, but we're not talking about Jackie Robinson here. There was only a barrier b/c there was no interest in it, and still appears that way. It has less of a following than the WNBA, and that's sad. Is Pro Football suddenly going to enshrine women in theirs b/c I know for a fact there are professional leagues for only women.
Listen, I'm not trying to be sexist here. What they've done is great and truly was ground-breaking. You have to question the validity though, if they are only being enshrined "just because" and to start up a new wing in the Hall.
If this is true, I'm pushing for Manon Rheaume (first female goalie).

I'll pass on making comments about scoring, going top shelf, and the five-hole haha.
