The newest holiday hit...

To kinda make up for my lack of posting, I wrote a little something for Christmas or Hanukkah/any other holiday around this time. Mary presents "The Buffalo Bloggers", to the tune of "Santa Claus Is Coming To Town".

Oh, you better play well
You really better try
Or we'll write a post about you, that's why

The Buffalo bloggers are here in town

We're watching the games
Keeping track of the lines
And even finding out who's dressed to the nines

The Buffalo bloggers are here in town

We don't work for a paper
We don't blog for money
Some topics are pretty serious
But we sure can be funny!

So, you athletes work hard
Don't fade away
Just remember that
We'll be here to stay

The Buffalo bloggers are here in townnnNNNNnnn!

Sorry, no returns are accepted. Plus, how you could when it's gonna be like, the number 1 (add a lot of zeros) hit on the Top 40 charts? Silly people.

Tomorrow is Christmas Eve, which means a ton of cleaning and preparing before people come over for our annual party, and then Christmas day I'll be testing out my new camera. So stressful that it deserves a little break from BAGMG, I know! But anyway, I'm looking forward to it. Christmas is my favorite holiday for sure!

Whether Christmas or any other celebration, I hope everyone has a safe and happy holiday! :)

It's the cat's pajamas.

I can't comment on yesterday's game, as all I've seen is the replays. Instead I was at my brother's band concert... no offense to him but I'm pretty sure both sucked.

Instead of trying to get filled in about the game today, I played guitar and watched random YouTube videos and the like.

Then I ventured over to the Sabres site to catch up on stuff and saw this.



I like that Patrick Kaleta and Adam Mair are never seperated. Ever. What a true bromance right there! But honestly, how I wish I could be a part of this event, if I had $175 and was 21. For one single day, the suits and the "looks" (I'm talking to you, Ryan Miller) have made me forgive them. They're like a sweet talking ex-boyfriend sometimes...

Really though. Y'all look all sly with your fun fedoras and the like and it makes me laugh hysterically/it warms my heart. But if you lose against the Kings, I'm gonna be hurting some Buffaslugs. If they can have a fun commercial and win (sometimes), then you can too.

And in other news, Mats Sundin finished his never-ending game of eenie-meenie-miney-mo and is now a Vancouver Canuck. Woo? The Sedins, Sundin, they're gonna have fun with that!

Now I'm off to ANOTHER band concert. That's what you get when your family is too stinkin' musical, ha.

Maybe you'll rest sometimes...

... I wish I could. Except now, I can! I'm done with school for a month!!! This picture accurately represents my feelings.


Hank and Clarkie are ecstatic from way-back-when time aka last season 'cause Clarkie won it in overtime. And I'm ecstatic because I'm done with school for the semester!! Pure joy!
Granted, I'm gonna miss my friends, but November 'til now has been so disgustingly busy and filled with work that I wanted to cry. Sometimes I wonder why I'm an education major...

I did have a slight amount of free time, some of what was spent with hockey. My Student Activities Board has a "mandatory fun" outing for the executive board members. They tried to keep the winter one a secret, but nope, we knew we were headed to an Amerks game. (If you write in the email saying we'll be sitting inside watching but the ice makes it chilly, there's not much else). I fully prepared myself for a really bad game, and wasn't disappointed there (4-1, yeah).
But they played against the Iowa Chops, so we saw Drew Miller score on a breakaway 30 seconds into the game, which was fun! Also, since when is Rory Fitzpatrick affiliated with the Panthers? They announced him in the starting lineup and all I could think of was the All Star Game campaign. Since he wasn't noticeable throughout the game, that's all that I could associate him with after too.
And we got upgraded to a suite and were typical college kids inhailing all the food that was there. I also had fun explaining things to people because evidently I'm "askmary.com, for all your hockey needs" and no one else knows anything. Now I really earned the name "hockey girl". Good times.

ANYWAY. Now that I'm free from the School of Education's grasp, I have time to write up posts less than 4 weeks apart from each other. I know everyone missed me. Riiiiight.
Though, I do I get to go back to work. I'm not so happy about it 'cause I hate where I work with a passion, but unfortunately I can't work as a summer school aide for double the hourly rate during the winter. Money is money I guess, but I still feel like this...

Dear Ryan Adams, I'm just as excited as you are!!
(I'm on a DRA kick so that's the reason for the picture + title.)

Oh, right. Blogging. And the Sabres. I'm not gonna try and cover everything that's happened in a month, 'cause everyone's already read about it.
I'll just say Nathan Gerbe looks much smaller on TV then in person, I'm glad we had a good game on Wednesday with the fights and the effort, and TVans is a crazy foo'. And that we're playing Toronto tonight. That's all that needs to be said.

Now I'm gonna have some homemade pizza and watch the game on our flat screen TV. Sometimes I reallllllly like being home!

PS. I can't get this song out of my head, so stinking catchy. And I finally found a whole video to rewatch the greatness, ha.
