t-minus 1 day?
with today being halloween and me being me, i can't help but think back to last halloween which absolutely sucks. of the four people with whom i strolled through a nyc haunted house, there's only one with whom i speak anymore (hi kim!). two of the remaining three would later team up to make me feel like the world's biggest asshole. happy halloween!!!!
in better news, yesterday i was asked by a colleague to take part in his fantasy basketball league. i've never played any fantasy sports before because, honestly, i find them pretty stupid (sorry, mark). i'd rather just root for my favorite team in the sports that i follow than for a bunch of players scattered across teams that don't really matter to me. but i thought it'd be a good opportunity to interact socially here at work and since basketball seems like the least time-consuming of the fantasy sports, i accepted the offer.
since the league was put together so late (the real nba season kicked off last night), keith (colleague/league commisioner) had to set the draft up to run automatically which meant we'd have no say regarding who landed on our teams. when we got into work this morning, keith, jon (another colleague in the league) and i logged on to see how things shook out. before i could access my own team, jon yelled to me "damn, you got kevin garnett!" i was pretty excited about that. however, when i finally was able to look at my team, kevin garnett was no longer the most exciting part of it.
sitting there, on my roster, was none other than manu freakin' ginobili!!!!
i shit you not.
how about them mets, yo?
