    but it is predicted to be so big it may bring another ice age, but I’m not buying it. In the seventies it was global cooling, then the nineties brought global warming, when the models didn’t come to fruition they changed it to climate change in the two thousands. Now they are convinced they can tell that a volcano that has oozed as long as I can remember, hell as long as anyone can remember, is suddenly going to erupt and cause a second ice age, BS. Honestly if they could keep their story…

    Hockey in the desert Ice hockey is a sport almost unheard of in the city of Tucson, Arizona. There is the local college team, the Wildcats, but aside from that you have to drive through the middle of a scorching desert to get to the nearest city with an ice rink. And then of course there is me. Hockey is a big hobby of mine, and sadly I was unfortunate enough to grow up in the middle of a desert where hockey is not a big part of the culture. But that wasn’t going to stop me. My goal was to get…

    Annoyed, I listen to the loud patter of rain on the roof. Each drop only a tap, but together they make a blaring noise. It's the first time that I have left the U.S., this time to go to Belgium, and not only is it raining, I'm also horribly sick. With snot dripping from my nose; a box of seemingly useless Kleenexes to the side of the bed, the seconds tick by one after the other. Each minute seeming as long as, or longer than, an hour.

    Saturday afternoon in December and frighteningly cold out. Becca had gone to the ice rink to watch Ashley skate. Sitting on the bleachers, freezing, wishing her best friend was a gymnast or even a pianist, she reached up and pulled her hat over her ears. She peered through the glass wall, out to the ice, and quickly forgot about her frozen extremities. Ashley’s coach stood scrutinizing her as she sped across the ice, jumped high in the air, spun around into a blur of beautiful colors and…
