Ok, I'm posting, 'cause I'm sick of having that <10 blogs thing on my userpic.

What'd y'all think about the Sabres this year? My husband is convinced they're going to the Cup finals. I am not so sure, but even if they are, if they're playing Nashville, I'm going to have to root against them again. Sorry.

I want to like the Sabres, but I just keep running up against little things that kind of annoy me about them. I will say this, tho' - Ryan Miller has been great for my fantasy hockey team this year. Hasek posts better numbers, when he plays, but he is old and creaky and therefore does not see nearly as much ice time as Miller (and Hasek's hurt right now, anyway, which is why I am trying to get rid of him).

Of course, now that it is almost fantasy-playoffs-time, and I'm counting on him more than ever, I get something like this from Miller:
Argh. I know it's not all his fault, but man. They're going to have to do better if they really want to be in that Cup final this year.

I'm also mad that I didn't grab Paul Stastny while he was still free in our league, but that is a post for another time.

I mean the iTunes shuffle soundtrack to your life thing. I got it from (e:carolinian,42) who got it from some other (e:peep), I think. But it's going around everywhere, no?

Anyway. Mine came out way fucked up. Witness:

So, yeah. Way fucked up.

So, hi there. My name is Liz and I joined this site not because I live in Buffalo, but because my friend Carolinian is on here, and I wanted to be able to leave comments on his journal entries. That's about it, really.

I was gonna go with Virginian for my username, to copy his Carolinian thing (since I am from Virginia), but he convinced me to go with Lizabeth instead, so when anyone links to me it'll show up as (e:lizabeth), which is just funny.

What else? Well, I'm going to be moving out of NY soon (December), but I'm sure I'll make it to Buffalo at least once before I do. I will at least be in town for Carolinian's birthday, which is November 17th, so we should totally do a big party then. I wanna see him get drunk and act silly. ;)

And now, a picture of an alpaca for you:





Because alpacas rule.
