It's good to be me!

It's been a good couple of weeks. I've had lots of entertainment...and all of it free! My month (so far) in review:


November 3: Brad gets free VIP tickets to see the Anaheim Ducks beat the Phoenix Coyotes 6-2.


November 11: Brad comes through again, this time with tickets to the USC homecoming game against the Oregon Ducks. We had fun watching the horror on the faces of the Ducks fans on either side of us as USC won 35-10.


November 13: A friend of Ric and Jeri was giving away tickets to the L.A. Kings vs. San Jose Sharks game. Their seats were down by the ice, while ours were up top, but we met up between periods and they stayed to watch the end of the game with us. The Kings avenged an earlier loss to the Sharks, this time winning 4-2.


November 16: When I got to work, I was offered the chance to help chaperone a group of the best behaved boys to the Kings vs. Philadelphia Flyers game. Getting paid to go watch a hockey game is great. Having it happen on your last shift of the week: even better! The Kings lost this one 4-3, but we had to get the boys back before curfew so we didn't have to see the carnage as it was 1-1 when we left.


November 20: Star 98.7 sponsored a free performance by James Blunt at Hollywood and Highland. I swung by after work and met Cyndi and Angela there. We grabbed Quizno's for dinner and watched the half-set from the balcony.
