having a plan

We had a plan for the evening. Go out to Robinson to the Halloween store, get stuff for the party, go to All Star Sports Bar to catch the second period of the Pens game. All was going well. We got our stuff for the party and were back to the car before the game even started. We got to the sports bar, found a seat and watched the first eight or so minutes of the game. And then the bar lost their satellite feed. The game disappeared. Right after we'd placed our orders and it was too late to go somewhere else.
We inhaled our food and, the restaurant having failed to get the game back up, we left. Went across the street to check out Houlihans. We were the second group of hockey refugees, but Houlihans didn't have the feed either. After much debate, we called Silky's and rejoiced at the news that yes, they were at that moment watching the game on their tvs. A half hour later, we were in town. We missed half of the first period and all but the last five minutes of the second period, but we saw the third in entirety. It was an easy win for the Pens, 5-1 over the St. Louis Blues. Marc-Andre Fleury's eight consecutive win, his personal best streak. This puts the Pens at 8-1-0 for the season so far.
I was really sleepy to begin with and then had a screwdriver at the bar. Now I'm extra super tired. Sadly, I don't feel like going to bed yet.
