So. Last Night. Exciting? Mostly.
First off, I would just like to say that how I feel about award ceremonies has not changed. I recorded the Golden Globes last night and watched it today. It was still quite cliche and dull. Thankfully, since it was recorded I was able to skip to the parts I wanted to see. I was really disappointed that The King's Speech didn't come away with more awards. However, I am pleased that Colin Firth won Best Performance by an Actor in a Motion Picture. And I was excited that Glee did well. But I don't understand how The Social Network just totally won everything.
So now that that's out of the way...
The Spurs game was really fun! Matt and I had some fantastical seats (A friend of my dad's gave us the tickets, otherwise we would not have been able to go). I chased down a cotton candy man and ate a giant pretzel without buying a drink (bad idea). Unfortunately I left my camera at home and so I was forced to resort to taking photos on my phone. And last night was the night I learned exactly how terrible my camera phone is (at least for anything that moves or is not within 5-10 feet).
Matt had never been to an NBA game before (which is why I was so disappointed that I forgot my camera. I wanted to document the occasion!), and these seats provided an incredible experience! And it was just a really good game.
I used to go to Spurs games all the time when I was younger. When I was in elementary school, everyone looked up to the Spurs - they were our role models (Oh. And Michael Jordan. And Alanis Morisette). In high school I lived and breathed basketball. I played it and I watched it all. the. time. I never missed a Spurs game. But then I went to college. And I just stopped caring. I learned that there was so much more out there than basketball. So much more that I liked way better than basketball.
But I do have to admit. Last night was awesome. We had fun. And I would not turn down those tickets if they were offered to us again ;)
