Starting the New Year Off WRIGHT

Thanks to G's parents and one of their Christmas gifts that was not stolen from us by the U.S. Postal Service, we went to a hockey game tonight! We got to see the Colorado Avalanches play!

First, the pre-game festivities:

View of my city from the Pepsi Center.

G's parents, I have to say, treat us right. We were in the THIRD ROW and could see everything. We call these the "snot seats" because players so often run each other into the plexi glass and, well, you know the rest.

Get this - the seats are cushioned! OMG it was actually comfortable to sit there for a couple of hours.

Is this a great view or what?

These guys were about to start fighting over me but then I held up my hand and flashed my wedding ring. Geez. I can't go anywhere these days.

We lost by one point in the last minute of the game, but still. It was a good time and we had so much fun. Nothing like a little violence on ice to start the new year off wright.

I will pay you a thousand dollars to tutor for me tomorrow and also to finish up my unit lesson plans for this semester.
