I think I may have mentioned before that the Allstate Arena is directly under the approach to runway 22R at O'Hare. Just so you see how low the traffic is, here's a short movie I took with my Canon S230 digital camera out in the parking lot before today's Chicago Wolves game. Think it's a little nerve-wracking knowing that the planes are just a few hundred feet above the stadium?

Oh, crap. 3 days in a row, the Wolves play in overtime. Friday was a win after squandering a 3-1 lead. Last night in Grand Rapids it was a 4-1 lead that was squandered that wound up in a 4-4 tie. Today, though we started strong, the Admirals took the lead and dominated for a while, only to finally get back into it and tie the game 3-3. The story today was penalties, Either they were very stupid penalties or the "chippiness" and fighting just took its toll. On Friday we were outshot 39-28, today we outshot them 37-29. BIG crowd today - 14,926. No idea why.
Another game without Chelby and Damian. I'm feeling the need to talk about this soon...

I'm sound asleep when I feel three gentle little tugs on my comforter. I rolled over, didn't see anybody in the bedroom, but I looked over the edge of the bed - there was Indy looking up at me! She had been out and about this morning while Carol was downstairs doing laundry. Indy obviously came upstairs to play and didn't expect to see me in bed. It was a very cute moment and a nice way to wake up.
