As the World Turns Fan Club Luncheon

Yep, I'm headed to NYC for a weekend in April to attend this event! My mom, sister, and Danette are coming, too, making this the best ladies weekend ever! We get to meet the stars of our beloved, long-followed soap before the show will be taken off the air in September. It probably seems silly, but I have watched this show probably since I was 5. We also get to hit up New York City and do fun city things (actual activities TBD). We are all excited and, seriously, who else do you know that can say, "oh yes, I'm headed off to New York City for the weekend"? We will not be as crazy as the people in this video but, as Liza pointed out, watching them will be half the fun. The guy who says he's going to pass out is my favorite. I hope he's there.

YES!

This was my Saturday night at work. And the best game I have ever seen at the Assembly Hall.

Go to a U of I Hockey Game - done!

I have successfully completed one item on my Toss My Cap List! Saturday night, I went to dinner with Sarah and Katherine (Sarah had her first ever Papa Del's) and then to a hockey game. It was quite crowded and, apparently, an important game, so we had to sit in the corner. Unfortunately, Illinois lost, but we did get to see them score one goal. I was disappointed that there was no huge fight but there was plenty of slamming people into walls and fight-instigating. I also should have watched Mighty Ducks or something because I know even less than I thought about how the game of hockey goes. Thanks to Sarah for the pictures!

Katherine, Sarah, and me. These were our "yay-we're-at-a-hockey-game" faces.

This sign made me laugh...and also terrified me. Luckily, we were semi-safe behind the net.
