So this weekend I decided I wanted to go see Ken Griffey Jr. Play in possibly his last game. I say possible because his Chicago White Sox are fighting a battle with the Minnesota Twins for the American League Central championship. The winner will continue on into the playoffs, the loser will watch from home. I also have a friend from back home that lives in Chicago and him being a Huge Sox fan already had tickets to the game. I figured that all the travel time would be a great chance to work on my first essay due on Monday, i.e. today. Travel to the staduim on Sunday was trouble free. The game was fantastic. We sat just a few rows up in center field (where Griffey plays). Spending time with my old friends was great as well. After the game we went to a local sports bar and had a few drinks before I headed off to catch my flight.
I guess it was too much fun at the bar because I missed my first flight back home (it was over sold anyway so I wouldn't have made it on). The real bummer is that was the only flight that would make it so Spokane in time. I ended up having to take the last flight of the night to Portland and stay the night there. I then caught the first flight from Portland to Spokane this morning. Whew, I even made it in time to check up on some of my other classes and work on my rough draft before English begins.
What a weekend....
