Arrggghhh! I couldn't stand it. I fell asleep last night before the Badger football game was over, so I could get some decent sleep and still make my 6:40 am flight this morning. By the time I got to Seattle, it was 11:30 am (1:30 pm Central Time). The Packers game against San Diego was half over. I got my luggage, hailed a cab, and texted a few people, asking for the score. Steph wrote that we were up 17-14. I got into my room, and of course the game isn't televised here, and the score flashed across the screen....crap! we were now down 21-17. Grrr...
I decided to make the most of my time here and decided to head toward the Bainbridge Island Ferry. I wanted to see Bainbridge Island, and I heard it's actually worthwhile, not to mention not terribly expensive. As soon as I got off the ferry and was wondering in some lotion shop, Carrie texted me that we won. She assumed I knew, but I didn't. What a great surprise!!!
Then, as I was waiting for my coffee in another shop, I browsed the Sports section of the Seattle Times on the table and saw that the Badgers won 17-14 last night. Wow!
It's amazing that I had to leave hundreds and hundreds of miles from home to find out who won. Crazy...
And yes, the ferry ride was worth it. I felt like Addison Montgomery on Grey's Anatomy! :)
