Jordan Staal

I waited for the perfect moment to put this up.

Jordan and I have had a very intense relationship over the year.

It started when I began to watch hockey and became obsessed with the "playoff beard":

And then there was the 2009 Stanley Cup WIN, and the Pens Parade to follow.

Some more hockey games, etc.

It all culminated this past Tuesday when the Pens dominated the St. Louis Blues at Mellon Arena.. a game in which Jordan Staal was thrust against the glass numerous times right in front of me.

I took this as a sign that we will one day be married.

Now, some may argue that he is not a "Ginger." Pish posh, I say. He's a borderline, and that's Ginger enough for me.

XOXO J. Staal, my hockey love.

Until we meet again. Make that meet.
