I’M AN ETERNALLY HAPPY PERSON.
It’s my thing.
Everyone has a thing. My best friend, Tripp, he’s the
sweet one off the ice but has a razor edge when he’s being
the best goaltender in the NHL.
I’m the one with bricks for brains who’s always smiling.
Well, I’m not smiling today.

Losing the Stanley Cup to Boston last night stung like a
bitch, especially when it was followed up by yet another fight
with my girlfriend, but then instead of drowning my sorrows
with my best friend, he ditched me for half the night. I spent
most of it drinking with the team before they headed home
and I holed up in an all-night diner and ate my weight in pie.
My gut is hating me for it, but not as much as my head is
hating me for all that whiskey I consumed.
All I want is to go to bed and sleep it off, but she will be
there. She’s always there. I don’t even remember when she
moved in. Tripp came over one day and asked if Jessica lived
with me. When I said no, he pointed out she’d redecorated
and all her stuff was there. I’d never lived with someone
before, but it didn’t take long for me to realize the worst part
of sharing your space with someone. When you fight, you
can’t get away. Hence the all-nighter of whiskey and pie.
Hmm. Sounds like a country song.
She called me irresponsible. Again. I want to be offended,
but then the waitress asks if I want another slice of pie, and
my stomach lets me know it regrets all of my life choices up
to this point.
The thing is, I can be responsible. Sometimes. When it’s
important. I just don’t see why people choose maturity when
the alternative is having fun. She resents my away games,
my celebrating and commiserating with the team, and my
friendship with Tripp.
Jessica wants to be my whole world, and yeah, I want a
relationship, a person I can spend my life with, but that can’t
be all I have. I need hockey, my mom, my baby sister I adore,
and then there’s Tripp. Tripp’s my bro, and he owns a good
chunk of me.
Other women have tried to come between us, and it’s
never worked. Without him around, everything is …
claustrophobic. Suffocating.
She doesn’t understand.
Jessica mentioned a ring. Again. When I told her I wasn’t
ready for that, she got pissed, and then when I said I was
going to go out with the team, that was unreasonable. She
said she was leaving and to call her when I grow up, but
she’s threatened to leave countless times, and I don’t know
what to do anymore.
Would she be more forgiving of me staying out all night if
we got married? I doubt it. If anything, my teammates’
marriages have shown getting hitched weighs you down
even more.
I don’t want to stand at the other end of an aisle
and promise forever when everyone knows forever doesn’t
mean shit these days. Not for normal people, let alone NHL
