Busy Weekend


Forgive the lack of recent posts, but it's a very busy time in RL. My dad, mom, and stepdad are all in town (in different hotels), Malaya's best friend from childhood is here and staying in our condo, and we went to a graduation yesterday, we've eaten lunch and/or dinner out with various relatives every day since Wednesday night, and we've got a big party tomorrow, dinner that night with all of my parents and Malaya and her friend, and I'll be doing a joint b-day/father's day thing with my dad on Sunday.

So yeah, I've been pretty busy, with about an hour a day online time, and that's not going to change until Sunday night. No wonder people with real lives and children and such never have time to do anything but live day to day. sheesh.

I haven't even had the TV on for 3 days, and I had no idea they'd played game 4 in the NBA finals. (Miami blew them out.) I watched the first two games and found them unsurprising. Dallas was clearly the better team, they had a much deeper bench, they had better coaching, they had more energy, etc. And that remained the case until early 4th quarter in game three, when Dallas was ahead by 10 and I thought Miami was going to roll over and die, with 5 fouls on Wade, who was the only guy on the court playing hard.

But sports being what it is, Dallas went cold, Miami got hot, and miraculously sneaked out a win in game 3, then crushed in game 4, and suddenly Miami's got the momentum and it's game 5 in Miami, with them looking a good bet to go up 3-2. As for the other sporting event 99% of the people on earth are more interested in... I have no idea. I've not seen a game, just a few minutes of World Cup here and there, and other than knowing that the US got blasted 3-0 in their first game, I couldn't tell you a score. I'll try to get more into it next year, I promise.
