## Morning Mastodonians!
Another pretty good morning at hockey. Only 3 pucks got behind me and there wasn't much I could do on any of them. One was a tip in front that went 5 hole, another was off the stick of my defense and over my shoulder and the third was a breakaway I made the first stop on but he jammed home the rebound. It was a late tying goal, but we got the winner a few minutes later, so it all ended well.
I didn't even have to stay up late to watch the ending of the Patriots game even. They were winning 16-0 late in the game, so I turned it off and went to bed. They ended up winning 25-0 in what some were calling the longest last 2 minutes of a football game ever. It was a sloppy win, especially on offense, but they did what they had to do and now they are looking good, playoff-wise.
One last dark day in the salt mine, then I'll be free! Should be a quiet one, as many are traveling to NYC for a meeting with the top man. I should have probably done it, but I just couldn't face 4 hours of travel each way, just for dinner. And I have a few loose ends to tie up before I disappear.
Stay safe. GET VACCINATED! GET BOOSTED! Wash your hands. Wear a mask. Watch your distance.
