Quick update on the boy I went out with earlier this week: He pushed to see me again and I didn't like it and he pushed harder and so I told him that we would not be seeing each other again. And apparently this meant that negotiations had begun. Ummm... no. I said we didn't click/weren't a good match because I couldn't really say that he already seemed clingy and immature and not quite emotionally intelligent enough to at least fake it for longer. So he said some nasty things and I was tempted to respond, but ultimately controlled myself and I'm glad that all of it happened - NO regrets in cutting ties with that one and super-super-glad that I did that when I did! Maybe my judgment isn't as terrible as I thought it was (after the guy that worked at BMW that I think I should have gotten an explanation from, but didn't... who just disappeared and made me question my judgment/assessment of situations).
Anyways, I'm writing during a commercial break - Game 2 of the Lakers v. Rockets playoff series and it's pretty amazing. Blatant fouls and ejections, near bench-clearing brawls, tons of turnovers, reading lips for bad words, trying to spot the blood before the refs, big lead changes and comebacks, and just generally an air of excitment and intensity, which leads to some awesome plays and spectacular "jawing" (for lack of a better word... though it seems to fit incredibly well right now). The second half is when it really got good, but only highlights from the first half are up online. I'm imagining the hit that Derek Fisher put on Luis Scola that dropped Scola headfist into the court and was just generally outrageous will be an instant online classic (and for good reason).
Just imagine that this is only the beginning of the awesomeness...
