We're a house divided by sports, but we've reconciled to cheer on the others' teams EXCEPT when they're playing each other. With that, I say

Alot of celebrating is going on here because of the Blackhawks- my quiet area is loud right now and alot of people are outside shooting off firecrackers & making all sorts of noise. You could not park because everyone is at the bars a few blocks away. There are times when I really enjoy living in a big city; this is one of them. :)

My quiet area has juuust calmed down. This is one of the reasons why I don't live in Lakeview :) A friend of mine lives near the United Center and I'm pretty sure he won't be sleeping tonight.

Congrats to the Blackhawks!

This sums up my city pretty well, I think:

I've almost fully recovered from that loss, and I wanted to say congrats to the Blackhawks! I said at the beginning of the playoffs that if Boston couldn't win, then I'd like to see Chicago pull it off. Here's to my 2 favorite cities!

Also, I just saw this online today.

I love hockey!
