futility on the bball court

so my test finally works. i had to do some hacks to make it run through, but i'm finally heaving a sigh of relief. now we just gotta make sure the results are what we expect.

so i played basketball again today. last week, i played one game to 11. this time, i played two games to 7, so i'm inching my way up the stamina factor. hopefully, i'll be playing twice a week after a few more sessions. the ultra-competitive guy hasn't shown up so far, so i'm much happier not having to deal with him, especially since i didn't score a single point today.

i'm getting a massage today. can't wait! it's in an hour, and already, my neck and shoulders are looking forward to a good rubdown.

on the drive back from basketball, i heard that anna nicole smith died. i was never a fan of her, but i'm sad to hear that she died so young. i'm hearing that it may be drug related? that's a shame. i never thought was hot, though. and after seeing a few episodes of her reality tv show a few years ago, i don't have a very high opinion of her. but still... dying before the age of 40... that's young!

so the cowboys hired wade phillips as their new head coach. hm. one of the espn writers called this a joke, since phillips has never won a playoff game with the four teams that he's coached. i am having my doubts now that he'll be a good guy to lead my beloved 'boys, but we'll see. i'm cautiously optimistic about next year, but i think it all rests on romo's shoulders. he started off his season well, but i think our opponents figured him out, and he started struggling down the stretch.

do you guys have to pee in the middle of the night? or in the early morning hours? i usually don't have to, but this morning, at 7am, i woke up, and i had this uncontrollable urge to take a leak. at first, i just tried to shake it off, so i rolled over and tried to go back to sleep, but i just couldn't. so i got up in a huffy puff, took a leak, and bam! i fell back into a sleepy bliss. i've heard in tv ads that older men with enlarging prostates have to get up a lot at night to piss, so i'm not looking forward to that disturbing my slumber.

i wonder if i'll ever grow my hair out long again. short hair is just so much easier to deal with. remember that i cut my hair short because of that chow yun-fat photo shoot a few years back, and i've kept it like that ever since. it's too bad that the video game got cancelled; i would have gotten a kick out of playing myself on the screen. :)

ok. time for that 5pm smoke. cheer up! tomorrow's friday!
