I have never seen so many men hugging at the urinals.
SO i pretty much had the best day yesterday! Started it out by moving into my new office. I was in all my OCD glory getting things organized and cleaned up from who was there before. It looks pretty good and now i have a better view out the window.

I am beginning to worry that i have bitten off more than i can chew with this job. There is so much to learn.

Halfway through the day Lucas calls me to inform me that he had managed to get 4 tickets to the hockey game from his boss. I almost shat myself and soiled my new office i was so excited. (for those of you that don't follow hockey the oilers were on the cusp of eliminating the best team in the league on home ice, this hasn't happened on home ice in a very long time and the last time we made it to the second round of the playoffs "no fear" t shirts were cool). Tickets for the game were being scalped for like 500 bucks at least, and here we were me Lucas,Tim and Lucas's dad mister P sitting ins some amazing seats watching the oilers most important game in almost 8 years.

The energy in the building was incredible. It's like we all knew that this time things would be different and that change was possible. It was such an insane natural high. It actually looked like we were going to lose until the 3rd when the oilers hard work started to pay off. We won it in the last few minute's. I don't think i have seen a better or more exciting game of hockey in my whole life and to be there was total magic. The whole place went crazy! Afterwords in the washroom the urinals were all lined up 3 deep and guys were high fiving and hugging. It was the strangest thing i have ever seen in my life (I'm not used to seeing men talk in the can never mind hugging and high 5ing, and that includes the bathrooms at the gay bars I have been too). While i was peeing a guy tapped me on the back and yelled go oilers and encouraged me to pee faster.... so strange, definitely not the place for those that are pee shy.

After the game me Tim and Mister P caught the train to go back downtown. Mister P is a great guy however he doesn't speak much English and without Lucas there he was kinda lost. We tried to ask him where he was parked but he was to busy high fiving people. We get downtown when he realizes that he hopped the train going in the wrong direction (considering Edmonton's train only has 1 track that goes north/south its usually pretty hard to get on the wrong train). It was pretty funny me and Tim trying to explain that he was going the wrong way.

I hooted and yelled and clapped so much my hands and throat are so sore today. Up and down the streets downtown people were yelling dancing and honking (totally nuts!).

To top it all off i passed my accounting class with a 59.8 woo i so thought i was going to fail, I also did pretty well in my other classes.
