no way can I afford to fly.

Cheapest I could find was something like $550 Canadian - not including taxes which seems to equal the ticket price...

I can't afford to fly for 1000 bucks.

Sorry everyone.

I can't swing that...

whatever.

The Oilers beat the Ducks tonight, 3-1, taking the series 4 games to 1.

We are in the Stanly Cup finals for the first time since... since I was in a psyche ward! lol

16 years...

Plus, Claire left her Orange, lemon, pinapple Sqaush stuff here so now I'm hooked on it...

Damn it.

We beat San Jose 4 games to 2... after losing the first 2 games. First time in Oiler history.

Anaheim is next. We beat them and we're in the Cup finals.

I can hear the celebrations from my window...

this is too awesome!

Edmonton came back from a 2-0 defecit and win 4-3 on a goal with 1 minute left in the 3rd period.

Edmonton beats Detroit 4-2 and takes the series!

yeah baby!

Oilers win 4-2.

Came back from a 2-1 deficeit, scored two goals in 57 seconds at the end of the 2nd period. I'll watch Edmonton play the Trap if it means we beat Detroit.

I finally got an "on" for my "strap"!

Man... I'm going to be havin' some fun.

Oilers won tonight with 30 seconds left in the game. Then Vancouver lost to San Jose 2 hours later.

The Edmonton Oilers are officially in the playoffs as of tonight.

I can breathe again...
