Happy holidays from Nervoustime -Jets v Bruins

 Hello! It's been four years and we have a lot to say, first of all we are all doing well. Jen is 1538 days sober, Kendra is 2538 days sober, Eric is 1538 days married. 


There was the pandemic as well since our absense. 


Discussion of Dave Lowry/Adam Lowry. They were both captains and Eric has also achieved a captaincy of his own in his career. 


We are in Charleswood right now, at Tracey and Gene's. Snacks include mini quiches, chicken wings, mordens nuts and chocolates and various candy (sour patch children and swedish berries). 


There was a goal which was challenged and disallowed. A distinctive kicking motion. Expressions of displeasure from the Jets crowd echoed the displeasure of the Nervoustime crew upon discovering that Stacey Natress is still yelling the anthems at us.

So many catchups and so many house changes. Every single one of us has moved since we last got together except for Kendra.

Fast paced game tonight. According to the commentators it's all about the puck. I'm pretty sure the puck doesn't move without being hit by a stick but what do I know about physics.

Discussion about the barron brothers and how they're  mom was at the game the other day. Leading us to officially remove our support for the Staal brothers. 

Now a discussion of the best Thai in Winnipeg. There's a lot of support for Magic Thailand, Siam, Viet Anne, Mae Sunee (Erin at Wellington, daughters of Thida). Mostly we would like recipes for Massamon.

Santa is real and Santa is a Jets fan. He's definitely at this game.

WINNIPEG JETS GOOOAAALLL!! Scored by number 44 Joshua Morrissey!

1-0 Jets after 20:00

Second period, and the conversation has transitioned to travel plans.  Kendra is going to south east Asia soon, and Eric wants to go to Vietnam as well.  Gene and Tracey haven't been to Vietnam since 2013; totally overdue for a trip back.

We are shwetti for perfetti.  Something to shout!

and, another GOAL!!  2-0 Party with Vilardi!  He's on a streak right now.  He's Canadian, and a Leo.  We do not know if is mother is at the game.     

We do not miss Evander Kane. 

lacrosse looks silly but is the oldest organized sport in north america dating to the twelfth century. canada has the largest amount of players in the nhl and sweden calls field hockey land hockey. fun facts!


Penalty shot!!!!!!!

More brother notes the Geekie brothers are both from Manitoba.One plays for Boston and one played for the Ice.

Second Intermission

A lot of discussion on getting Jen into the cult of swifties. I, Jen don't see it happening But I love Taylor Swift for who she is.st not really my kind of music. 

Shoutout to the Capital Grill, which probably does not put anyting special in their Caesar salads in spite of the $27 price point. 

Caesar salads are not Italian but Mexican. 

Darcy, not good at keeping secrets. So we now know that he and Jen are going to Hawaii in March for a belated honeymoon.

4-0 Winnipeg!  Lowry...holy cowry! 6th goal of the season.  His favourite snack is ripple chips, and he's an Aries (so is Josh Morrissy). 

Sad news... John Sauder will be retiring soon.  Nervoustime will need to get together to celebrate the reitrement.  Jen would be a great replacement to report the weather.  We now know that the sunrise time stays the same for 8 days straight until January 4th. 


Someone commented that 8 out of 10 jets have golden retrivers.


currently discussing new years plans, Tracey is thinking of a casino. Eric is thinking of a cabin, Jen may stay up past 10 pm. Noah is also contemplating the casino. Everyone should go to the forks on new year's day for some great drag preformances.


final thoughts -


we will have another one this season. we are happy to be here in charleswood.
