World Cup final

I slept in today with the intention of heading to the World Cup watch party in the Power and Light District in time for the final game, but I woke up later than I planned and it was pouring down rain, so I stayed home and watched it online. Oh, Univision! How I wish I could understand you!

I enjoyed watching the game and was pleased that Spain pulled off the victory, even though I had really wanted Germany to win, and I felt that more players displayed more quality playing in earlier matches than in the final. It was a little underwhelming.

What I'm most excited about now is the U.S. bid for the World Cup in 2018 or 2022. Kansas City is a host city listed on the bid. How awesome would that be?! Make this dream a reality by getting involved.

Bachelorette party

I got invited to my cousin's bachelorette party in Kansas City, and while it was great fun, I have a sneaking suspicion that I was invited to be the guaranteed sober chauffeur. Nevertheless, I rocked it out until the wee morning hours with the bride-to-be and her matron of honor. We closed down Power and Light, and I returned them safely to their home.
