Today was alright. A friend came over to watch the (2nd half of the) Colts preseason game. It was nice to hang out, as always. She brought pizza, which is rarely, if ever, a bad move ;). After the game, we chit-chatted and watched TV for a bit, trying to get music from my PC to her iPhone without using iTunes (which doesn't work well on my computer for some reason). We couldn't get it to work, so we're trying something else.
I caught the Bellator fights on tape delay after she left. There were some OK fights, then there was the main event. OMG! Joe Soto lit up Joe Warren BAD in the first round. He hit him with whatever he wanted and Warren had no answer. It was EASILY a 10-8 round. Then Soto came out and got cute in round 2, got clipped, scrambled and got up, then a beautiful knee/left hook combo got him for good. He woke up asking, "What happened?" I thought Soto would win, and round 1 solidified that, but Warren's no joke. That was a very impressive win for Warren. The event was in Texas, which didn't do a good job when Strikeforce was there recently. The officiating/judging was just fine this time, which is good. Maybe they learned from their mistakes. Let's hope.
I got nothing going on Friday since the Fever lost. I'm hoping to get a few things done, though. I'd like to straighten up my room, do a little laundry, make a couple calls and all that. I'd like to go through my card collection to make a record of what I have, at least a decent overview. I still haven't looked up if there are any free guides to what they're worth, yet, but I need to know what's in the boxes, too. I'm sure there's something else that I'm forgetting. Hopefully I remember when it counts.
Then, Saturday, it's GAME DAY!!!! I can't wait. I was thinking about actively posting (FB/Twitter) during the game, and catching what others were saying, but that'll probably just make me dizzy with all the back and forth head/eye movement between my PC and the TV. And now that the TV timeouts are going to be shorter...lol...I probably won't be as active as I was considering. Social media has really changed the viewing experience, though. If I weren't so OCD about needing to see everything that's being posted (by those I follow, anyway), I think I'd enjoy it more instead of feeling this weird obligation. It's all good...I can stop whenever I want to :P.
Happy Friday, be good, have fun, GO IRISH!!!!
