First, this entire region is still riding high from last night's win. Which means work was fun today because lots of people were in good moods and were wearing Phillies shirts or colors, and work kind of took a back burner.

Second, Lauren and I both begged our new boss to let us take vacation days tomorrow in order to attend the championship parade in Center City tomorrow. The begging paid off, so we're taking the train out in the morning for the all-day party.

Third, good fortune continued to smile upon us as we fought with Ticketmaster to procure (free) tickets to the post-parade celebration at both Citizens Bank Park and the Linc. We succeeded, though we ended up giving our tickets to a co-worker and his wife (and their two kids) because another friend had somehow managed to get 16 tickets to CBP. We'll be using those.

Fourth, the good moods continued when we chowed down on mini-cupcakes from Cupcakes Gourmet for Estelle's birthday, and lots of candy from the little trick-or-treat session for employees' kids. Everyone's happy when on a sugar high.

Fifth, I braved the crowds at Modell's after work so I could get a Phillies shirt for the parade tomorrow. Can't show up with no gear! I picked a Jimmy Rollins shirt... what can I say, he and I have good taste in numbers (11, which is my old volleyball number).

And lastly, I found out that my building FINALLY has new washers and dryers. The washers are front-loaders, which is all well and great, except that when I tried to unload my wet clothes into the dryer, quite a few articles fell onto the floor. Ew. It also now costs an extra quarter to operate the washers and dryers. BUT, considering that these are the only low points today, I'm willing to overlook them. =D

Oh, oh! And I forgot that it's also Thursday night TV! "Smallville's" on now... seriously, why can't hot guys just waltz into my life like they do to female characters on this show? Sheesh.
