We got our tickets!

I had promised the kids that we would go to a Chicago Fire match this year, but I got stuck at the restaurant all Summer. Couldn’t get away on the weekends. And that’s when they usually play.

But tonight, a Wednesday, is the Wild Card. Chicago Fire vs Orlando City, this might be their last game of the Season, so we better get over there.

First things first though. We got to take care of our business.

Mostly MTG bulk again. Got through 2013. That year is all done.

Also worked on a couple of reviews for Journey of Discovery. That is a long process and the more I get done during Spoiler Season the easier it is with the release.

Well on to the Match.

We didn’t tell the kids we were going to go see the Fire tonight, so we picked up some food and headed to Toyota Park .. I mean Seatgeek Stadium. It’ll always be Toyota Park to me. We parked in the parking lot and they were oblivious to what was going on around them.

Once they realized it they got excited. I didn’t expect it to be so cold, Me and Naki went in with t-shirts and a Jacket, My wife and Ana, had hoodies and coats on and beanies. I had to pick up a hoodie for the little one. But, we probably would have bought one anyway.

Now I’m looking into getting the MLS Season Pass through T-Mobile. It says it’s free for me, I just have to figure out how to do it.

What did we have going on today?

Did the first “Day in the Life of Niko” or daily Soap Box, and I got to say, I might be liking it. It’s still early to tell though.

It got a little chilly and this weather is perfect. Nothing better than sweater weather if you ask me.

I had trouble with my label printer this morning. For some reason it was just printing everything extra small. Barely able to read the address on them, I was thinking about just sticking them on the packages like that, but then I thought better not. I ended up going into the printer through the laptop, and change the settings there. The question is, how did the settings change by themselves.

Decided to go see the Chicago Fire for their Wild Card match on Wednesday. Picked up some tickets, but we still haven’t told the kids about it yet. It’ll be a nice surprise for them. I told them we’ll go to a game this year, and this might be our last chance, so we’re going.

The prices weren’t that bad, about $45 a ticket, you’d think they’d be a little more considering it’s Play Off season.

Got through some more bulk, and went to pick up some team bags for the Bulk Lots, and also picked up a couple of 3200 ct boxes to put them all in. I got to get organized, and I have to go and organize the office once again. I should be doing that at least once a week, to keep everything a bit more organized. If I sent someone there to find a card, they would be there forever, but it’s a controlled chaos where I know where everything is, and that is working for me right now.

Picked up some tacos, cause my kid who doesn’t eat tacos said we had to have tacos cause it’s Taco Tuesday. I said, you want tacos, we’ll get some tacos. He had a couple and said that they were ok.

After that, we got ready for the night, and jumped into a game of 99 Nights in the Forest. And, what a game it was. we got all the way to 86 days. It would have been more, but my kid jumped into the Bear Den where the third child is and he got mauled. I tried saving him. Even took care of one of the bears, went back to camp to heal up, and the cultist attack was happening, all while the deer was chasing me down!

I tried playing it safe, but 3 cultists were following me, no bandages, no med kits, no cake either. I tried hiding behind the map and everything, but they were always on my tail. Niko’s Last Stand. And, I was done.

We’re almost there. Soon enough we’ll get past 99 Nights.
