Hockey Doritos
Spent a day in the sun, headed over to my RWC game, downed most of a Mega Grab bag of Doritos (those are even larger than the Big Grabs) plus a slurpee from the 7-Eleven next door, changed, and went out on the ice.
I was a little worried about what my pregame snack would do to me, but it seemed to do more good than harm. I was actually somewhat speedy tonight. Huzzah!
I'm still not carrying the puck speedily, though. I can't wait to get that back.
Final score: 2-3 (OT). We held our own right up until the end, against the 1st place team. No complaints there.
I finally scored another goal. I got a beautiful pass from Kelly on a 2-on-2, broke free, and somehow managed to get the puck over Red's left shoulder. I'm told it looked pretty, but really, I didn't have time to plan it. Watching the puck hit the back of the net was actually a bit of a surprise for me. In retrospect, that's pretty cool, because I don't accidentally lift anything. That shot may not have been planned, but in a strange body-playing-the-game-sans-brain way it was intentional.
Or maybe it was the Doritos.

It wasn't the Doritos. :)

Being on the other end of that wicked shot, I will vouch for the fact that the Doritos gave our heroine mega after burners!!!
BTW....it was a 2-on-2 as of the blue line, but became a 2-on-Red when both Kelly and Soopahviv blew past the remaining D and decided to play "Put the Biscuit In The Basket".
Great shot, regardless!!

Ah, see, there's your problem -- you're looking at the players and not the puck!
Just kidding. :)
I was looking at nothing but puck, thinking, "Ack, don't lose it!" so I actually had no idea that Kelly was coming in with me with no defenders on.
Mmm ... Doritos.

I bought some this weekend, so it'll be making a comeback. :)
It might be better to stick with the Doritos, though.
