Years of being a Leafs fan have taught me that if you shut the TV off as soon as the puck goes in, before you can even see the other team celebrating their game winning goal, it's a lot easier to handle.
Sometimes it's good being out of touch. I just finished a fantastic book called 'The magicians', that I'd never heard of before, and now discover that it's a five-season TV show already.
One of my least favourite but most rewarding holiday traditions is the annual fridge condiment purge that occurs when I'm bored between Christmas and new years.
