The Sad Saturday

This past weekend, despite being 3-day, was kind of a bummer. Well, Saturday was a bummer. I have to start with a short background story to set the stage. My boss gets season tickets to all of the OSU sporting events. There was a basketball game on Saturday that he was not able to attend, so he gave the tickets to me. I was really looking forward to going to the game. I invited my friend Karen to come with me. Of course, on Saturday morning about an hour before we were supposed to leave, Karen called me. She started the conversation by saying "Please don't be mad at me." That's never a good sign. She woke up that morning with her left eye swollen shut and her right eye not quite swollen shut. Needless to say, she could not go to the game. So, I quickly called a few other friends to see if they wanted to go with me. Unfortunately, I could not find anyone who could go with me at the last minute. I ended up giving the tickets to Mark. Not only did I give him the tickets, but I babysat so he could go and let him use my car since Anna was working that day and had their car. Talk about a bummer!

When Mark got home, he told me all about how great the game was. OSU won by getting a 3-point shot in during the final seconds of the game. The seats were fantastic. They were in the third row right behind Tennessee's team. Man, I was disappointed.

That was my sad Saturday.
