THE DEALIO

"... no matter what time of day... you always have to treat it like it's the best time of the day. that's the only way to keep going. if you don't think you are going to get cold or thirsty, what do you have to fear? when it gets dark everyone wants to go inside, be warm, and eat, but if you say, 'fuck that... the thing that i love to do is rock climb, and i'm here and i'm doing it,' and this is the best time of your life, then you shouldn't care if it's dark. you just keep going."

the lameness...

i'm not sure anyone knows about this, or cares for that matter, but the dealio's fantasy hockey team clinched a playoff spot!
woohoo! go HC Zapdos! (that's the team name)
i'm currently sitting fourth out of twelve, with a record of 91-69-20. unfortunately my goalies are going through a slump and i keep losing close games because of them. poor martin broduer, he even got benched during the olympics by team canada.

basically, how it works:
at the beginning of the nhl season back in october, i signed up for a fantasy league to keep myself occupied while i had my broken finger. i picked 18 or so actual nhl players in a mock draft , and whatever stats they have in their real games throughout a week go towards my match with one of the other teams in my league. each different stat counts as a game. yeah it's pretty nerdy, but whatever, it's been interesting. i haven't payed any attention to the nhl since i quit playing hockey when i was 15, kinda fun to pick that up again in some capacity. go avs!

(update 3/22/10: haha! i'm through to the semi finals! guaranteed fourth place!)
