    I don't think I've ever partied this hard.

    I've slept for about six hours in a week and a half.

    This is possibly the most awesome thing ever, outside of winning it myself.

    What a fucking year it's been.

    Winter Classic approaching. Olympics coming up in a couple months. Half our team is injured.

    But I got to visit Chicago, so all is okay with the world.

    So I've pretty much become public enemy number one around these parts. Apparently Boston's wanting to trade me. I'm a "rebel" with "misguided political aspirations."

    Fuck yourselves, seriously. Back when the PA was fighting against the league in the lockout, who was the one telling guys to wake the fuck up, we weren't going to win, why fight a losing battle? I'm not out to get money, I'm not out to fuck the league or the owners over.

    Kelly did a lot of shit he shouldn't have. He had to go. We made the right choice, for the right reasons.

    If people would actually give a fuck beforehand, without waiting for the media telling them to freak out, people wouldn't be spazzing about this shit right now.

    We know what we're doing, we're not as stupid as some people would like to believe.

    And really? Trade me. Please.

    There's got to be a spot on Chicago's blue line I cold fill in.

    So I think you guys can see that my summer has been pretty damn busy. Surgery. Jonny. Political conventions.

    I'm a busy man.

    I realize I haven't been around much lately. Been trying to get healthy enough for surgery (how fucked up is that statement? I have to get healthy before they can fix me.). Having that on Thursday.

    Spent the last few weeks with Jonny--it was hard watching him lose, but what a fucking season for him. Not so much for us, we didn't quite live up to expectations.

    Long summer ahead. Hopefully next season isn't so frustrating.

    I've got Jonny here, so fuck this, I'm shutting up.

    I'm going fucking insane. I can't play. I can't help my team (not that they need it). I can't go see Jonny play. I can't celebrate his awesome play thus far.

    I'm sitting in the fucking press box, I'm doing off ice workouts, I'm doing fuck-all and it's killing me.

    At least the bonus money is going to go to a good cause.

    What the fuck, body, stop betraying me.

    Current Mood: frustrated

    Christ, I've sucked at updating this thing.

    So I went to see Jonny this week, but now I'm back in Boston, need to get ready for the playoffs. I'm hoping to God that they clear me to play. It's bad enough sitting in the press box during the regular season. If I have to miss post-season, I'll go fucking stir-crazy up there. Come on, docs.

    Jonny's freaking out--but I have complete faith in him. Besides, I gave him some pointers of some of the weak points of the boys in Calgary. Hey, the boyfriend wins out over old friends, sorry guys.

    Spring is here, which means Boston is no longer feeling like Siberia. I want to go for a nice long bike ride tomorrow.

    Hell of a showing by Big Z in the Hardest Shot Competition--and huge thanks to the guys who were shooting, it was awesome of all of you to go in on the charity contribution. I appreciate it, and I know that Right to Play feels the same way.

    Apparently I'm in the Final for something interesting this week. I thought Jonny spent all this week preparing for the All Star Game ;)

    Speaking of which, I had a blast with him this weekend. He's still so young, but he's so damn mature. He talks just like a veteran, he practices like a veteran. He just soaks up everything about him like a sponge, and I'm so proud to be able to be a part of his life. He's such an amazing person. I still can't quite believe he's happy with ME, but I'm not going to argue, because it keeps ME really happy.

    Back to skating and rehab and hopefully getting back on the ice. I'm going fucking NUTS just sitting back and watching.

    Shit, I've completely neglected this thing.

    I think you all know about the broken tibia thing already. If not, that's where I've been. I've at least used the time off to my benefit--I got to go see Jonny first, and and then he had a huge road trip, so I came back home. Then I did The Hour, still doing the radio show here in Boston...

    I just want to play. If I can't be with Jonny, I want to play.

    I spent all of last season watching. I'm sick of watching. I hate watching. Watching is horrible.

    I get fucking moody when I'm injured.

    Think I might try to sneak a trip to Chicago soon.

    ...It feels so fucking good to have him in my arms again.

    If you're expecting more than this...too fuckin' bad.

    I can't believe it's almost September. This summer went ridiculously fast. Camp in a couple of weeks, the season is just over a month away...it'll be nice to get back to playing hockey, but I'm not really wanting this summer to end.

    It ended up being one of the most memorable summers I've ever had, definitely the best one in quite a while.

    I guess Jonny's gonna have to head off to Chicago soon--I'm not sure of the exact date, I guess I've been trying to just ignore that it's coming up so quick. Going to have to deal with it soon, though.

    Oh well, since the summer IS almost over, I'm not wasting it on this thing.

    Sometimes I just feel like a dirty old man.

    This is one of those times. )

    I got the certified letter in the mail today telling me the attorney got my paperwork for the divorce. It'll take five business days to be finalized.

    Next Friday, I'll officially be single again. Officially be divorced. It's an odd feeling...I just basically feel numb. I guess after all the hurt and pain when we first split up, this is just the paperwork, this is the business end. The worst of it is long gone, now it's just official.

    I guess I should be more upset than I am, but I just can't be. When all is said and done--we're better off this way. I couldn't give her what she needed--and she never could be there for me the way that I needed her to be. I don't hate her, and part of me will always love her, but not in the way a husband should love a wife, I suppose.

    Part of me is relieved that it's over, finally. Time to move on.

    Speaking of?

    I am going fucking crazy. Utterly fucking crazy. And making an ass of myself on a fairly regular basis. I'm usually more...confident than this, usually more comfortable with myself, usually able to control myself better.

    I haven't had it this bad in a really long time.

    Um....Disregard that. Don't ask. I'm being a jackass.

    I suppose I should update this thing.

    Currently in Canada, with the Toews. We were at Bourdon's funeral yesterday--Christ, that was about the saddest thing I've ever witnessed. It hits home just how important life is, how quickly it can be taken, and how much you need to just live, experience all you can, every day, because you never know when it'll be over.

    At least that's what I got out of it.

    Divorce papers in the mail the other day.

    They're signed, I just haven't returned them yet. It's hard to just so easily, so coldly put an end to vows that were supposed to last forever. Not to be, and I know that. I know I'm just delaying the inevitable. But it hurts, as much as I knew it was coming.

    It's nice to have Jonny here for distraction.

    Hell, it's just nice to have Jonny here.

    Take from that what you will.

    Hmm..

    I seem to have gotten my hands on tickets for a few WC games. I might have to take a drive up there. It would certainly be an interesting time.
