How Are the Rest of You Staying Sane During This Break?

[Kick save and a beauty]

Serious withdrawal symptoms here.

 

How many luge events or mixed doubles curling events can one person watch?  That is coming to an end soon anyway.

 

Every night it feels like we are slipping further down the standings because well, basically we are.  Hopefully there is not a major problem with rust when we do get back to the rink.

 

Sorry, needed to vent.

NHL22, reading books, re-watching Marvel films, enjoying nature, studying images of Ryan Reaves with jealousy, a desire for whatever his workout regimen is, and begging for some level of discipline to actually do it.

Blegh, it's almost over!

[Ozzy]

It's been exceptionally boring. 

 

I haven't even been out at the bars because there's nothing to watch.  The fucking Olympics are like watching paint dry.  I tried to watch the Curling match between the US and Great Britain, but that's rough.  You guys ever watch Curling?  I'll say one thing for certain...  I'll never have an issue with insomnia ever again.  It's not that it's a bad game, it's so relaxing to watch, that I just start to dose off.....and keep dozing off.

 

I fell asleep 3 times watching that match last night.  I woke up just in time to do Wordle a little after midnight!  LOL

 

Thank god we're back on the 15th!  Feels like a jail sentence!!!

I like curling, but I have no idea what's going on in it.

I need a curling for dummies manual.

[Dunny]

Curling is fantastic. Lots of strategy. All the teams are pretty good, now.

 

Our mixed doubles team didn't make the medal round and it's touched off a big controversy, here. 

 

Kids finally back to hockey, here, so I haven't even really noticed how dumb the NHL schedule is.

[ThirtyONE]

TBH, my interest has wained since the long Christmas break. That huge break coupled with the trip out west where I couldn't watch any games and this massive break, I basically haven't watched much hockey in 2 months.

 

I think it's pretty poor scheduling by the NHL but I'm not sure what the solution is.

[BlairBettsBlocksEverything]

not helping me stay sane but ive been not hitting many NHL bets on other games so that has at least kept me engaged

Need to be somewhat buzzed here before curling start to appeal.

...That'd make me fall asleep even faster, Kicks!!  LOL

[Karan]

Hasn't been too bad for me to be honest. With the way the team was playing the last few weeks, all over the map, they and I both needed a break from hockey so it's been quite welcome actually lol. 

[Ozzy]

I'm really looking forward to seeing Fox back!  This team is getting more and more fun to watch, especially seeing how bright their future is looking now.

I’ve been playing NHL22 Chel with a bunch of guys, sometimes it gets boring though because they cant’t keep up with my skill and intellect of the game

[Cr00zng]

It's not that bad, just watching games on ESPN+, some of them are really good, or just catching up on other streaming channels.

 

I didn't get into the Olympic at all, but should have, I missed curling...

[Zuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuc]

We're actually good at the winter olympics, so I'm enjoying that.

 

A lot of weed also helps

Neither can your controller because your pass button never works. 

[Valriera]

Myself or my kids have been sick for the past three weeks so there’s that

The thing that is really tough to wait for is @Ozzy’s post of the GDT winner

[Keirik]

I’ve spent time with my wife. We will see if any consequences come of this.

Shooting button must be broken too.

[josh]

Hasn’t been too bad, yet. We’re so busy you kinda forget. It’s more during work when I don’t feel like doing anything that’s been worse 

[Flynn]

Booze. Lots of booze.

Wanna see some more posts from you in there!! 

[The Dude]

I'm not.

 

I ordered wheels and tires for my truck back in December. Still waiting for them (long story on how/why im still waiting).  Been calling, emailing and stressing about it non stop every day for atleast a month.

 

Went off on fedex lady before a 3 hour ride home (traffic) from work yesterday (10 hour work day), because she couldn't tell me why my shipment has been sitting in Joliet Illinois since last Thursday, due to snow (after being told it MIGHT be on a train) Called again today and was told I should be getting it today by 6.  

 

Fuck FedEx and fuck Custom Offsets. Fuck the NHL. Fuck the Rangers and fuck you. I'm kidding, not you..
