schneefinkYesterday I met up with DD for ice cream, then we got annual tickets for the natural history museum and walked through the first floor. (Sooo many birds! Birds are cool. And other animals. Less information but a lot more exhibits than the same museums in NYC or DC.) Then we watched a few episodes of "The 100" (finished the season by now, review later), slept for three hours, and woke up in time to watch Penguins-Lightning game 7.
What a game! Fast, clean, very entertaining. It helped that my team was playing better, though they only scored two goals and were up by one for the whole last period because of Tampa's excellent goalie. My poor nerves… I'm very glad I didn't have to watch it on my own. But the Pens won! Bryan Rust, unlikely hero, who almost got a hat trick. Pens are going to the Stanley Cup Final and it's beautiful. Always great to see Phil Kessel, Pittsburgh Penguin, smiling like that.
We then slept again for a few hours and I'm not even exhausted today. Still happy about the Pens in the SCF. Sports is weird. What a season.
Now SCF against the Sharks, who are scary good. Thornton, Pavelsky, Couture, their top 4 D are excellent… The Pens are also good, but they lost one of their top 4 D to injury and I know several of them are playing injured, and idk I'm not feeling very confident. I also don't dread it though; I'd be rooting for the Sharks against any team but the Pens, so if they win I'll be disappointed but not crushed. (I think.) Until then, optimism! It's going to be great hockey :)
