Game 2

VS.

Wednesday, May 6/09

111 (LA) - 98(HOU)
Series tied @ 1 a piece

I gotta admit after game 1 I was depressed. It felt like the first few days of a break up... I didn't want to talk about it, I changed my status on blackberry messenger to "unavailable", I didn't hit the usual NBA websites, I didn't even touch my blog.

But throughout the past 2 days I never wavered from what I knew would be the final outcome of game 2. A statement game. I knew the team I've followed since I was a small child would not let me down. I knew my favorite player EVER would not let it happen.

KB came out on fire w/ 15 1st quarter points and finally got some help w/ Pau Gasol chipping in 13. Although LO only chipped in w/ 7 points, his intangible skills were easily the X factor as he added 11 boards, 4 assists and 1 steal.

The game was not w/o controversy as Derrick Fisher was ejected after stepping into a Louis Scola pick. He flattened out Scola, but at the same time took a decent gash to the side of the head. Flagerent 2 and a possible suspension for game 3.

Former Laker Von Wafer was ejected... from his own bench by Rick Adelman the head coach of the Rockets! As a bench warmer who has a had a handful of decent games, I don't think that gives you the right to start chirping at your head coach.

And finally Ron Ron tossed in the 4th Q. Yes Kobe hit'em in the throat, but not hard enough to warrant a foul! C'mon Ron Ron, you know better then anyone when you're battling on the block you run the chance of getting hurt. Don't go chasing Kobe across the floor and getting into his face, especially when your team still has a chance to win.

This serious is quickly turning into a slobber knocker! Can't wait till game 3.

BTW I'm predicting 4-2 final for the Lakers.

PS- I hate Bynum... Real Talk

Middle Earth

Matt aka Heavy Danger has been exiled to Middle Earth, aka Castlegar, BC.

He just called me to tell me how there is absolutely nothing in Castlegar, no Rogers Video, no Future Shop, No Walmart, NOTHING.

And there is one Asian restaraunt. Half Chinese half Japanese.

Hahaha aww that sucks buddy.

If you guys feel bad please send Matt a txt msg or call him. Call him at any time, day or night. Pass his number around to all your friends, relatives and strangers. Write it in bathroom stalls, park benches, on old people, where ever.

(250) 304-3810

Pac the Hitman

He pants so hards.... out in round 2.

Soju... So Juiced

Hit SOLE for Matt's final night in civilization.

Awesome joint. Got some premo service. And downed a ton of Soju. Can't believe everyone actually made it out.

Highlights:

1.) Peeing on Matt's kicks
2.) Rudy know's the Peggers
3.) Ash whispers on a microphone
4.) Ash hogs the mic for 4 hours
5.) Jordan doesn't like Kareoke *Wink wink

Pre-game before the Pre-game

Friday, May 1

I thought it would be a great idea to pre-game before Matt's pre-game going away party. So I hit Moxie's after work w/ some people from the office.

Bad idea... had a headache the rest of the night.

But we finally hit Phil's place to pre-game. Me, Matt, Leah, and Phil were the only ones pre-gaming. A bottle of Agave I brought back from Mexico. Swine-flu free... but w/ a scorpian. Yes mofos, I said Scorpian.



Guess who got the honors of eating it?


Onto Sole for the actual party...

CHOKE!

Dear Calgary,

I love you. I really do. I love my ghetto NE neighborhood, I love the erratic weather patterns, I love Kensington, 17th ave, Prince's Island park, Eau Claire, I even love Stampede, although it's been years since I've been down.

So don't take this wrong when I say....

HAHA Flames SUCK! Thank god they've been eliminated. 4 straight years being eliminated out in the first round. Pathetic. I'm glad I don't have to see another jersey in the office, hear any Flames talk or have my local programing cancelled by some stupid game.

PS- stop making excuses about injuries. Oh so and so was hurt, and blah blah wasn't @ 100%. As a team you should all take a collective deep breathe, change your tampons and go braid your vag pubes.

Lakers Rule All, 4-1 elimination win over the Utah Jazz. That's how you fucking do it. Real Talk

Euro Boob

Sorry boys, no pics for this story.

One of our chill days me and Anne decided to play some basketball in the pool. It was just the two of us until a European family showed up. A mother, her 2 kids in the water and their father who wasn't in the pool but was filming them swimming.

So we let them shoot with us. I mostly stayed near the net and just grabbed the rebounds when they would miss and pass the ball to them.

Well once a long rebound came to Anne and she passed it off to the mom (who will from now on be referred to as Euro Boob). Anne realized that one of Euro Boob's boobs had popped out of her bathing suit. But instead of tell her that, she just turned away! --> Love this chick.

So Euro Boob throws up a shot, missed and I grabbed the rebound. I turn around to pass the ball off to one of the kids and see her boob hanging out... WTF!

The dad who is filming realizes and starts screaming "your boob" in their language. But being a euro whore Euro Boob wasn't even phased. She popped the boob back in her suit and kept playing.

This was followed by the most awkward 2 minutes of my life. Finally we just peaced out and for the remainder of our trip we tried to avoid Euro Boob whenever we saw her.

Grand Sirenis

Me and wifey stayed at the Grand Sirenis in the Mayan Rivera.

An awesome 5 star hotel w/ a very modern look. Open spaces w/ Mayan architectural influences.

1 of the buildings. Each building was connected by these walkways.

(Shot of the sign from the high way)

We lucked out and scored a Suite w/ our package instead of a normal hotel room. Sad we didn't take pics of the washroom cause the jacuzzi, separate toilet stall and stand up showers made me feel like i was on cribs haha.

Sitting Area, desk and baclony
TV
King sized bed and that v shaped thing is the washroom. On the other side was the Jacuzzi

I've got tons more pics of the grounds but I'll have to do separate blog entries for the beach and pool areas.

Breaking it down

I've decided to give a lil pre-cursor before i start blogging about Mexico.

Previous vacations I gave up on blogging cause I got lazy from blogging about each day. This time around I'm just gonna blog about the memorable moments.

Enjoy bitches...

Stupid Internet

So they've started monitoring our internet usage and non-work related emails @ work.

Which fucking sucks! How am I supposed to get through my day w/o:

Insidehoops.com
Hoopsworld.com
FMylife.com
Kixinthecity.com
Niketalk.com
Beyond.ca

Yeah I'm getting more work done, but @ what price?

My sanity...

I'm back...

Yes I'm back mofos. Just like my usage of the word mofo. A word that was over used and sadly lost in the sands of time, I'm bringing it back.

Not like my last vacation in which I took an 8 month hiatus I am back and in full affect. Expect a full run down of my week in Mexico.

On Vaca Bitches

Leaving for Mexico tomorrow. Started the vacation off right last night w/ drinks after work at Flat Iron. I'll admit it I got a little buzz going on but nothing major.

Second edition of the Running club this morning. Ron Ron is half ape. I swear to god I was half expecting him to start running by pushing off on his knuckles. LOL for Kiko thinking the half way marker was the end of the run. Then it was off to Booster Juice for lunch. Thanks Claudine! And J for the Wheat Grass shot.

Me and wifey copped some snorkels and goggles at Coast Mountain sports, other supplies at Wal Mart and finally exchanged some funds for US cash.

Wifey headed to work. I watched the Cavs dominate the Pistons. Then took a shower and headed to the mall to look for some kicks to wear to Mexico. I HATE BUYING SHOES AT THE MALL. They never have anything good. A wasted hour. Now I'm waiting for Har to scoop me up for hot pot at Mrs. Flores place. Gotta teach Baby BV how to say "Arjay". I'll hollar later.

Flames Suck

Haha Flames suck. Glad they lost last night. I hope by the time I get back from vacation they would have already been eliminated from the playoffs.

And to fire back at a certain douche bag's comments on a previous post. If the Flames go deep into the playoffs I will have no problems heading to 17th ave. to party. Not to cheer on the Flames. But to drink in the streets and act a fool.

Does this make me a hypocrite? Hells no. I like to party and I hate the Flames. Will I go to a party to celebrate the Flames? Sure... but I'm there to party.

It's like when I went to the Nas concert a couple of years ago and kept screaming out "I love you Kanye" and "Sing Stronger!". Haha. Okay it's not exactly like that, because I actually like Nas. I just remembered that story.

In closing, Flames suck, Hockey sucks, and Lakers Rule All.

Damn It!

Big quarterly meeting today held @ the Lakeview Signature Inn. I made it through 3 presentations w/ just 1 more to go.

Let's just say I didn't make it. My eyes closed and my head started to nodd off. Everyone noticed... including the guy giving the presentation.

Another FMM for the books.

Flames Suck

Dear "Middle-aged-woman-at-work-wearing-the-kids-sized-Flames-jersey-today-cause-it's-a-fuckin-playoff-game",

Flames suck and you're old... wear grown people sizes you whore.

I hate the Flames and hockey coverage in Canada sucks. Sunday is the start of the NBA playoffs and we'll be lucky to get half of the playoff games televised.

I'm coming in to work in a Lakers jersey every time they play. If anyone complains I'm gonna demand that no one be allowed to wear a stupid Flames jersey during their playoff games.

Real Talk

Haircut

My network @ work was down all morning. Okay, not the whole network, just my PC.

So while IT attempts to fix it I decided to get a haircut. It's a good day when the hardest decision I have to make is whether to get a faux hawk or something different.

F' My Morning

Fuck My Morning- Last night after the gym I specifically placed my wallet in a place I knew I would remember not to forget to grab it the next morning. Unfortunately I couldn't remember where I put it.

I was up since 6:30 and had intended to leave by 7:30 so I can do a quick stop at StarBucks. It took me 25 mins. to find my wallet, which included a mini tantrum in which I threw a bunch of clothes from my bed all over the ground.

Where did I find my wallet?

In the breast pocket of the jacket I was going to wear to work... FMM.

Better than...

What's better than a free lunch?

A free lunch paid w/ your co-workers severence package. Hollar! Haha. Thanks Lisa.

Idling

I've got 5 days till me and wifey are off to Mexico to spend 7 sun filled days in the sandy white beaches of the Mayan Riviera.

Only problem is I still have 3 (4 if you count today) days of work left. I find myself standing idely by and just staring into my computer.

Things haven't been slow, I get plenty of work every day. It's just the fact that if I really focus I can get a day's worth of work done in half the time, also factor in the fact that I'm dying to be vacation.

Expect a lot of random posts for the rest of the week.
