UFC 118

The other day, I slept through a wall demolition, yet, last night (for me, anyway), I couldn't sleep much at all. There was a lot of noise from talking, cooking, and door slamming (SOOOOOO unnecessary, as I've OFTEN shown them), etc., plus it just didn't seem meant to be. I'm a bit surprised that I'm still up considering. I wasn't quite as woozy, though, which was nice, though I didn't feel great (not sleeping didn't help). Having the fights to look forward to did make me feel a bit better, as did going back to once a day on that medicine, I'm thinking.

Downtown was crazy with all of the motorcycle stuff going on, and many streets were blocked. We looked around for 30 minutes for somewhere to park before settling on the mall parking garage. The whole area was packed, but Buffalo Wings and Rings had quite a few tables open when we got there. It took a minute to get Spike TV in our booth, but it got switched in plenty of time to see the fights. A nice surprise, my buddy and his girl ended up joining us as their previous plans fell through. I'm glad they found us. She recognized my visor through the window, which I find funny ;).

The fights weren't terribly exciting, overall, but I'll never complain too much about that. Those guys (and sometimes gals, though no women in the UFC) risk their health and potentially more, and they all could kick my ass (well, most of them, anyway :D). I didn't do great on my picks this time. Most of my guys had off nights, partially due to the success of their opponents, for sure. I'm not too bummed about any of the results as those who deserved to win (based on their respective performances) won.

It was cool to get out of the house again, as it always is. This will be 2 weekends in a row that I got out both days. The Fever are tomorrow (well, technically, later today...Sunday, anyway). Game time is 8PM, come cheer on the ladies! It's do or die, win or go home: http://www.feverbasketball.com/ for ticket info.

Be good, be cool, and may the world be good and cool to you.
