A Great Weekend
Saturday was the SATs again. Everything that could go wrong, did. Coffee pot exploded, a glass jar was broken and the restrooms were locked. (Supervisor didn't receive correct key from secretary) So, they had to use the staff bathrooms. I know there are only 2 stalls in the women's bathroom--our normal 5-minute breaks turned in to 15 minutes. Joy!
On the way home, checked phone to find voicemail from picookie . "My brother got 4 tickets to the Seahawk's game tomorrow and I'm calling people I think would be interested. Wanna go?" I could not call him back fast enough. He answered and I said, "Yes, yes,yes, yes, yes...am I too late?" Nope, I'm the winner! Sweet!!!!! So, Sunday morning, left the house to meet picookie at his house, drove to Tukwila to meet up with his sister and brother, (T and R respectively), took the light rail down to Qwest Field and had a great time. The first quarter sucked lemons, but then they finally got the hang of the game again and came back to win it 32 to 20. (They were playing the Detroit Lions) This was my first Seahawks game...ever! And it was great. :D And because our defense intercepted the ball and ran it back for a touchdown, all of the ticket holders get a free hair cut from Great Clips. (Any scoring by the defense would do that...also, if there are at least 3 false starts on the opponents, the tickets holders could go to QFC and get a free Jones Soda. There were two in the first quarter--and none after that. oh well.)
Fun fact: since 2005, Qwest field has seen 91 false starts (by the opponents) That's the most in all the football stadiums. Second place goes to the Metrodome in Minnapolis--they have 76!
