I really am still blogging, I swear....

It seems like I really haven't had anything to say on here other than the obligatory QOTD. I wish I had more time to say what's on my mind, (because there really is plenty there) but life is really made more difficult when the hard drive that was replaced last October goes bad on you (so much for it being a "software failure"). I guess the only consolation is that it's under warranty so the money I thought I'd have to spend fixing became a sunk cost on the debacle that was supposed to be the Nuggets-Suns game at AWA last night (a 44-25 first quarter will do that to you).

But "when the Suns win, so do I!!!!" $50 for parking, good seats (1st row on the second level, center court), free large fry from McDonalds (Suns W), two free tacos from Jack In The Box (Suns scored over 99 - I think they're going to have to change it to over 120 next year), "The Gorilla" bobblehead (fan appreciation night), and some idiot guy (who knows absolutely nothing about basketball but has a wife that did actually) who played the role of "that guy" for the night.

All in all, it was a good night. We got to sit outside and "people watch" while waiting for Ticket Master to release their seats back to the Suns box office 30 minutes before game time, try to get hustled by three of the dirtiest people on the face of the planet (or at least anywhere outside of Apache Junction), laugh at the scalpers as they futilely tried to rip people off (that's harder and harder to do these days with your run-of-the-mill sort of sporting events, and guess the ages of the girls that "I'd allow my mom to see me walking with" sort of way, there were plenty of girls that dressed the part of somone you'd see on Van Buren (or Colfax for the Colorado folk); Youngest girl to pass (guestimate here): 15, Oldest: 40 (remember, not someone I was actually into, just someone that was good-looking but had on enough clothes to cover up at more than 1/16 of their body).

Anyway, the game itself was still entertaining and fun (watching the Suns is like watching the Colts, love 'em or hate 'em you'll at least get to see a bunch of numbers get thrown up on the scoreboard. The Nugs lost, but thanks to some trash buckets in the final couple of minutes (and the Suns ninth-thirteenth guys), the final score was 128-114 (could have easily been 180-95 though). All in all, it was a much-needed respite that I thoroughly enjoyed.

Now it's back to the grind for a big econ. test before "I'm going going, back back, to Cali Cali."
