What is beautiful in man sometimes resists facilitation

November 9, 2015November 12, 2015 Amy O6 Comments

About WholeArsed

At some time in the past 15 years, from my home in the Chicago area, I fell in love with Arsenal, a London-based Premier League football club. Before the 2015-16 season, a share of season tickets fell into my lap and, in this blog, I chronicled my obsession and family adventures in London and back in Chicago.

I gave up the share for 2016-17, but just couldn’t stick with the decision as the share somehow didn’t manage to find new hands. What could I do? There it was, orphaned.

I gave it up “for good” at the end of 2017, when I moved to California.

All right…. I’ve managed to attend a few matches since then and it’s clear I can’t really put it behind me, not forever, anyway. Join me in my travels to London during the season in which Arsenal are sure to win the Premiership.

Really.
Stop smirking!

Arsenal are awarded the Premier League trophy
