U.S. Nationals, oh shit, how lucky can I be?
Oh, my god.
The U.S. Nationals are being held in Spokane, Washington. The men's finals aren't sold out yet, but tickets are $85. It's a hell of a drive and I'll probably have to get a hotel room that night.
Oh. There are practice schedules as well.
I want, I want, I want, I want, I want to be there. Watch the skaters. Absorb the atmosphere. Wantwantwantwant...
I'm thinking of buying them now, even though I have no money, can't afford it, this is a dumb idea. Guys, I think you just learned the lengths I'll go to in researching a story.

wildernessguru and he thinks it's a wonderful idea. "That'll be your Christmas present." I'm psyched. "We'll have to dress warm," he says, and I suggested maybe the puppy would like to go.
Anyone live in Spokane who'd like some cheerful skating house-guests? Anyone live in Seattle who'd like to car-pool to the Nationals?
It's just a matter of working out the details. *is pleased*
I'm thinking of going up by myself on the 20th/21st to watch tons of practices, and then going withwildernessguru to the competition on Saturday. Oh, I hear Johnny Weir might be there, and very likely Evan Lyce-Lycec--oh, however you spell that--Evan will be there.
