I just spoke to my father and he was able to get tickets to the next two Cubs games. He then proceeded to tell me he would be willing to fly me home for the game with mileage points. I then proceeded to crap my pants.
Tomorrow morning I will be flying to Chicago to see two Cubs games. My first two of the year. There are no words to describe my excitement.* My only concern is that my last Chicago sports playoff game was the Bears in 2001 and that went poorly. Of course, the 2001 Bears didn't have Mark Prior. Before that game was the Bulls in 1995, which went very well so it's kind of a toss up.
Either way, I am super excited and I'll be taking a bunch of photos with Dad's digital camera, since mine's still in the shop.
Thanks Dad!
*I tried though, with the title.
