when i’m busy i read the news
… nothing useful of course.
little nerdy birdies tell me there’s a meteor shower coming, the peak of which can be caught this friday at 1645 gmt. for us u.s. pacific coasters, that’s 845p. i’m currently scouting the darkest pockets of seattle from which to gaze at the sky, thermos o hot chocolate in hand, body insulated in blankets.
people who fall into the unholy overlap of basketball and blog enthusiasm probably already know about gilbert arenas’ blog. i didn’t realize how prolific a blogger the man is; his posts are long, meandering things — good material for pretending like you know the guy, as if such a thing is possible with men of his stature (or with anyone, really). texts, blogs especially, are deceptive in offering such a promise. this is all to get me to the important point: apparently arenas is single again (though apparently not for long). oh gilbert arenas, how i love thee, bravado and all.
and finally, this — yay for basketball-watching over the winter break! college football? meh. cal has failed me.
