TripIt is far and above my favourite way to track my travel, and Alaska has a great policy for refunding airfare price drops – I may never hesitate to buy a ticket again!

My grandparents are coming to town! This is great news, but it means I need to sell some of my season tickets to Sounders FC games. I’m trying out Bixbe to sell them. It’s a handy-dandy fairly instant storefront you can set up in a few clicks if you have PayPal (and who doesn’t?). The first set of tickets I put on Bixbe sold in 8 minutes. Like, money-in-my-PayPal-account sold. Beautiful. Let’s hope I have the same luck with this pair – the game is next Sunday night!

Speaking of Sounders, I went to last night’s US Open Cup game against the Portland Timbers via the epicness that was the Emerald City Supporter’s uber-bus caravan. So ridiculously fun. So so fun. I got to meet a whole bunch of ECS members and watch the Timbers can cut down, again, by the Sounders before their Open Cup hopes even had a chance. I love a little cross-”town” rivalry. Competition drives excellence.

Since we won (BOOYAH!), our next USOC game is Wednesday, July 7th at Starfire versus LA Galaxy. ECS has tickets for sale at $16 for members. Buy from our supporters club and avoid the Ticketmaster fees.  If you aren’t an ECS member and for some silly reason don’t want to be, here’s the Ticketmaster link.

The game is all general admission, so come early for great seats! So far Harmony, Erin O., Colin, Matt, and I will be there, for those of you out there in internetland who know me IRL.  Hope you can make it.
