olympic
Lucky me, ended up playing hookey for hockey today. I was able to swipe a box seat to the women's hockey semi-final at noon on a Monday! And seriously, it felt pretty darn fun to join in the scene...
Canada decided that due to our bombedout performance with the men on Sunday, it was only legitimate to hurrah for the Swedes. Well, the US women were indomitable. It was fierce defense and unrepentant shots on goal... that it ended up USA 9:1 Sweden. The best goal was the Swedish one though, the tipper off the stick and the Olympic joy that followed was a real tear-sweller.
A bonus effect? The ticket is good for free transit all day... worked late to make it up and hopped on with the special smile upon my face.
I think the bus driver knew, I lucked into it... and it was sweet.
