Most importantly: THANK YOU.
The outpouring of support from everyone over the last week has been so touching and overwhelming. It means SO much ❤️
Last night’s
#Jeopardy game was crushing because there were so many chances to win.
But it certainly gave me a better perspective on putting EVERYTHING into something and falling just short. (The stakes of his journey were a MILLION times more relevant than mine, but seeing Cal Raleigh’s face in the locker room after ALCS Game 7 absolutely tore me up inside - my heart was in my throat. 😢)
Plus, all things happen for a reason. Had I survived two more games, the next tape day would have been October 6 - when I was in Detroit for the ALDS. I can’t imagine prepping in the midst of the
#Mariners playoff push and then missing work at such a critical time! 🙏
On that note, a huge thanks to my entire sports team and bosses
@fox13seattle and to
@komonews for letting me invade their airspace for a bit 😄
I’ll leave you with my contestant card that Ken Jennings used on stage and then signed for me. He’s a true
#Seattle sports and
#Mariners fan! Loved every minute - and I’m SO excited to go back for a postseason tournament!!
