[blog] Year 3, Comic 6 - PB&J

☆ ☆ ☆ NOTES ☆ ☆ ☆

✓ JACK’S FACE– IS FINE! It’s hockey!

✓ But he got elbowed– it’s hockey!

✓ But he got hip checked—it’s hockey!

✓ But the other team was…so lame ugh! It’s professional ice hockey in the league of national hockey. I mean sure that was a chippy game and penalties were called, but…I have a feeling we’re not in the ECAC anymore, Chowder. Plus, how many guys in the NHL want to punch Bad Bob’s special snowflake of a son in the face? Psh…talk about getting everything handed to you. How many guys spent half of their careers in the AHL eating pucks…6th round draft picks…working their way up, not cruising into the league after a lovely break at a Liberal Arts College…

✓ But that’s not Jack! He’s been through so much—he’s so hardworking—THE PBJ NOTE SAID SO. Like these guys care about sandwich notes. Tah!

✓ Why PB&J sandwiches? Jack has had this built into his pregame for years! Even now he still makes a lot of the sandwiches himself, because Bitty can’t get a sandwich with homemade bread and jam to Jack before most games. (Roadies suck.) But whenever Bitty makes it over to Providence, of course he’s going to leave Jack with a delicious loaf of homemade bread and some mason jars of his aunt’s jam. Jack isn’t superstitious, but he definitely thinks it’s affecting his Corsi.

✓ Jack Zimmermann keeps all the notes that Eric Bittle puts on his pre-game sandwiches on his fridge. They are very encouraging.

✓ That’s so…what’s the word I’m looking for… CALCULATING.

Jack: We had good defense when you used the apricot spread.
Bitty: Hm, honey, you know that might’ve been the bread—it was just a bit sweeter.
Jack: Right right. Well, maybe we can use the apricot spread for the week 10 games onward and re-calibrate at the all-star break.
Jack: Right. Good talk.
Bitty: Did you just break a huddle over the phone?

✓ “How was your day???” Jack, Bitty’s next day is starting in like 4 hours because he has to be at Faber before the sun comes up what the heck let your dude go to sleep. Bitty’s sleep schedule is all over the place this semester. Ugh, wait until the west coast games.

UP NEXT: Even though Bitty’s had a lot of practice keeping secrets…This is new.
