finally played a round of golf today. that's about the only good of it. i think i'm getting too used to shooting really high scores, and making a ton of really dumb mistakes. my line today..... 5 fairways, 2 regulation greens, 30 putts and a WHOPPING 11 penalty strokes...all culminating in a round of 89. how bad is that? it was actually sorta ok cause i managed to find my swing on the last 2 holes, but otherwise.. ugh....

well - finally saw X2 yesterday! it was sooooooo good - much muchos betters than the first one. nitecrawler is awesome - and he's clearly the coolest of the new mutants introduced. then just chilled with friends for the rest of the day. i'm amazed that people can eat a full meal, and then sit at this tea buffet for another 3 hours!!! ok - i understand the company was good... but that was essentially eats for almost 3 1/2 hrs straight. i couldn't stomach a tea buffet after lunch, so i hung and had a coffee.... somehows, i feel like i'm missing out on something (like banana crepes w/fresh whipped cream?)...

my friend richard, upon arriving at lunch, announced to us all that he just got married! wow... surprise! heehe... he was like - well, i got an announcement for you all, and BOOM! ahhhahhah - so funny, yet so happy for him.

so now that the lakers won in 6 (see down on 4/27 post!)... and seeing as how SA looked very pathetic last time i saw them play, i am now sticking it all out and saying they get swept. to cover my buttocks, i'd say that SA gets no more than 1, but i can't even do that, altho i'd really like to! :p i think the kings will have a tough time wit dallas (who have yet to win, but will), but i'm confident they can take that one in 5. boston/nj will be interesting, 'specially since the nets have looked horrible at times... but then boston - they just don't hit shots when defended well, and nj plays D - so i think it'll be nj in 6 here. finally - orlando (will beat det in 6 or 7, but will win!), but most likely will fall to philly, but this'll be a close one - so i'll go wit the only 7 gamer here! bank, baby....
