Sleep. Answer phone. Sleep. Shop for top had with Chris. Bought nothing. Out for Pizza with friends. blah blah blah.......BULLS GAME!!!!!!

I love going to huge colliseums and centers like this. We were at the United Center, and all of us Chicago Semester people kind of sat in the same area....in the highest, last row of the house. I mean, we could seriously touch the ceiling. No one was behind us either. And our tickets were still worth 40 bucks! horrible! It was all because of Allen Iverson. What a guy. He's the one we all paid ten extra dollars for compared to any other night...
The bulls got whipped by the 76ers. The only reason we know is because Pam and I moved up about 10 rows so that we could actually see. The last row is so dark! So we stole some empty seats farther down and shmoozed with some kids basketball team. I'm still amazed that no matter how young some black kids are, they can still dance better than I can. It's fun watching all the other entertainment at a game like this. The "Luvabulls" and the "Matadors" and the tumbling team. I didn't know it, but I saw three really big guys before the game having a smoke by a door, and I said to the girls " I have to get my picture with them" so I did, and they ended up to be three of the Matadors! The guys that had the dance off with the cheerleaders- "Luvabulls" during half-time. It was cool. They were really nice guys too and were alright with having their picture taken with me.

I love watching professional sports. Okay, probably not football, but basketball games are awesome. Remember that time when we had court side tickets, Nathan? What a dream come true! The mascot for the bulls is a lot better than the grizz though. But nothing will compare to the moments of elation we felt when getting Shareef's autograph or seeing Mike Bibby and Michael Dickerson and all those guys so close to us. There was a guy on the Grizzlies named Othella Harrington...he plays for the bulls right now! Cool hey? and we saw him in Vancouver!

Anyway, Allen Iverson, AI, the answer, etc. had some sweet shoes on. And he has skinny legs. But it was cool to see him "in person." He looks small compared to the other guys out there...7 footers and stacked.

Can't get enough basketball. or volleyball.
