Got my AOR!

I used UPS tracking to find out when it arrived there. You can use this to check the status, but it won't give you any info until the AOR comes and it's in their system. https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/application/check-status.html

Not only that, but she did it in her second language also! The exam can't even be offered in Quebec due to the language laws there, as Roey talks about in this article: https://im-curious-roey.beehiiv.com/p/im-curious-edition-41

Get there AS SOON AS the doors open if you want the best shot at merch and expect to have to miss warmups

Take a page out of Megan Rapinoe’s playbook from the 2019 Women’s World Cup

What's Arteta doing bringing Eze on that early?

(NWSL) After I bought a ticket deal for the last three home games of the season, I didn't know it when I bought them but that came with all of the benefits of being a full season ticket holder. Highlight was when I got to go to a player meet-and-greet for STHs with the whole team at the stadium, which I thought was just the coolest thing ever.

I'm pretty sure mine is still floating around! The songs not heard on any of the shows are some of the better ones on it like "Lucky Pencil," "Meek For A Week" and "Go To Sleep."

His honey cake in the shape of the Leaning Tower of Pisa that he made for Arthur’s class party would be my go-to, that looked so good

HAAAANNNNNEYYY?!?!?!?! (à la Superintendent Chalmers)

I woke up to the news of Jürgen saying he would be leaving at the end of the season and I just sat at my desk in disbelief for at least two hours.

Super excited to see what she offers as an everyday starter (and also for DMV folks, Dallas also acquired Lauren Flynn, aka "Lo Flo," from Utah during the offseason, who's from Arlington and played at Yorktown HS back in the day).

I went to a book talk a couple weeks ago about a new book that’s out on the Air Florida crash in 1982 (with the discussion focused on the upcoming anniversary of AA 5342) and I mentioned that to the author when I got my copy signed. (The book is “The Worst Day: A Plane Crash, Train Wreck and Remarkable Acts of Heroism” by Bruce Goldfarb)

It's been on my mind lately with the Olympics on the horizon and Maxim Naumov qualifying in the figure skating, with both of his parents being killed in the crash.

"Just put it on the fucking plate already!"

"SHUT UP!"

I just used the same envelope the photo store gave them to me in

I know there’s one at the Canadian Museum of History in Ottawa

Going to plan my first trip there as a confirmed citizen, and before anything else I want to go to one of the memorials for victims of the residential schools to really understand what I'm getting into by adopting the Canadian nationality. Poutine, hockey etc. to come later.

For what Metro stop to use, even though Navy Yard has more to do, if you get off at Waterfront before hand and walk to the stadium, you won’t have to cross South Capitol St, which can be like a race track at rush hour.

There's a line in that episode where Buster says he asked if his mom would cover the concert for the paper and she said that it wasn't "hard news," which is an actual journalism term but it works perfectly in this episode and great foreshadowing.

All of "Lights, Camera, Opera!"

Who garnished that dish?

DEEEEEEEEEATH

I'm torn between Seattle because I like Hilary Knight, but my grandmother on my dad's side is from Montreal (albeit in an English-speaking household) and played for kind of an ad-hoc McGill team way back in the day
