THIS Close...

Well folks, it looks like this is as good as it gets:

Circumstances didn't allow that I go to the Chivas v. Gallos game tonight in QRO... Chivas (of Guadalajara, my FAVORITE soccer team, with my FAVORITE player OSWALDO SANCHEZ) were in QUERETARO tonite to play the QRO Gallos.

Here's the whole story... I found out like 2 months ago that Chivas were coming to QRO today. I got together with Rubén and Job from church (also avid Chivas fans) to see about all of us going. So the plan was in action. But, Saturday, they both said they didn't have money to go (we hadn't gotten tickets yet). I wanted to cry. I can't just go to the stadium by myself for a game... So that was that. Then, this morning while working at church, I mentioned to Alex (Rubén's brother) that Oswaldo Sanchez was only a few short kilometros away from church right then. He said, oh yeah, Rubén went to the hotel where the Chivas were staying last night to meet them. WHAT!?!?!?! And he didn't tell me!?!?!?! He ended up going to the game tonight too - some friend had pity on the poor guy and paid for his ticket. I watched the game on tv at a taco restaurant. :-( They tied. That's okay though, a tie is good because it makes for a better chance of Gallos staying in the big league so maybe Chivas will return here next year...
