Also, look at it this way. Gaining weight over the holidays = insulation = preparation for the cold Chicago winter when you get into Northwestern.

Wow, it's like you took the words out of my brain, Crumps.Unfortunately, I love food and I'm a lazy fuck.
I'm gonna need arunjogslogging partner in Chicago, since I won't be playing hockey.
I plan to run up Lake Shore to Lincoln Park and go to the free zoo.
Why no hockey?
We'll see. Definitely not first term, anyway.

Yeah, there's been a few "coincidences" that imply he lurks this thread. Hopefully, he doesn't think we're a bunch of neurotic weirdos.

Nope.

One of my best friends from undergrad played hockey in college and moved to Chi post-grad. She wanted to play in a men's league and found it almost impossible - no team would take her, they'd only allow her to sub and it was pretty infrequent. She was pretty emotional about it esp since like you she wanted to play in a competitive league and women's leagues just aren't competitive on the same level. That being said, hopefully you'll have better luck if you decide to play!rinkrat19 wrote:Luckily my City department is a revenue-generating utility, so our department can afford to actually treat us.

Why no hockey?
No hockey, at least at first, because I don't want to commit the time and money until I know if it's even feasible. I'd have to find a men's league that doesn't mind women (not a big fan of all-women's hockey), at a rink accessible by public transit, and buy a smaller hockey gear bag that I could take on the bus/train. Plus there's the issue of paying for league fees with student loans.

In exciting news for today, I am getting off work at 3 to go with my friends and their (freaking adorable) 3yo to a Catholic church that has a big grotto that they decorate up with lights and turn into a Christmas festival all December. Choirs, carolers, petting zoo, puppet show, cocoa and snacks, etc. All that's missing is an outdoor skating rink, but that's not very likely in Portland.

I'm not Catholic (neither are they, though they are religious), but I am ready to get my Christmas on!
Yeah, this is what I'm afraid of. Although I'm not so worried about being able to find a league my level (I'm not so awesome that I'm too skilled for women's hockey or anything), it's more that women are...well, bitchy. They play dirty instead of just playing hard, they're cliquey, they backstab and hold grudges. Playing with guys has so much less drama.darkwings wrote:One of my best friends from undergrad played hockey in college and moved to Chi post-grad.

If you teach me how to play, I'll infiltrate a men's league and get you in, okay?rinkrat19 wrote:Yeah, this is what I'm afraid of.

Beware though, I have never ice skated in my life and I'm not very athletic. I have played roller hockey a couple times. Does that count for anything?rinkrat19 wrote:Deal!Samara wrote:If you teach me how to play, I'll infiltrate a men's league and get you in, okay?
I will definitely be bringing my skates, at least....all those free outdoor rinks in the public parks are like some sort of fairy tale to me!
