Guess what! It looks like I will be playing in a fantasy hockey league with Mirtle, Sleek, Spector, and a host of other hockey blog bigwigs! This is a pretty big coup for a girl who had never heard of Jaromir Jagr until a few months ago.
(Mirtle, if you are reading this, I’m just kidding. I’m a new hockey fan and I would never try to play in such an esteemed fantasy hockey league……but your open invitation was too much to resist!)




Kate, I am devouring your hockey blog posts. Your love of hockey has pushed your writing to new levels of deliciousity (pronounced dee lish ee os it ee), a word that describes the pleasure provided by excellent verbal puck-handling. Go Sabres; fight for the right to be Kate’s Favorite Sabre.
I can’t believe the players aren’t posting on this blog. Why aren’t they all over it?
:^::::::::::::
That is all.
I totally endorse this. Experience is no substitute for enthusiasm!
What does :^:::::::::::: mean?
Cousin Mary, thank you so much for your kind words about my hockey blog! I certainly agree that my new hockey obsession has brought out a higher level of, um, whimsy in my writing. I’m glad you like it!

….and I have no freaking idea why the players are not all over The Willful Caboose. I’m thinking they must be intimidated. Hee.
Hey, I wanna play too! Waaaah!!!!
Katebits, go back and check this comment over at Interchangeable Parts!
