Riot Fest
You know how you can tell you're getting old? When people take to the streets in your neighborhood to celebrate the Blackhawks' win and, rather than wanting to join them, you just worry that they're going to freak out your dog.
And indeed the lady was a bit freaked out; our pre-bed bathroom trip ended up taking about half an hour due to constant distraction. I'm not sure if it was the helicopters or the people stumbling by screaming things.
Also: it's kind of hard to sleep when it sounds like they're staging Miss Saigon outside your bedroom window. Plus there's the fear that someone is going to set your car on fire.
Anyway, I'm glad that they won, and also that it's over. Of course, baseball season still has several months to go...
