The Mavericks WIN GAME 5!!!!!!

Whoop! Whoop! Despite my slightly tight tummy...that is churning...with lingering game-time nerves...and too much chocolate...I'm bouncing! Now the series is 3-2, Mavericks.

I KNEW they could overcome Saturday's loss--that game was a gut check game, and they checked, cleared, and cashed in. Way to go, MAVS!!!!!!!!!!!! That's heart! Man, I WISH I could be there. Did y'all see those empty seats? Dang!

My mom called during the 4th and this is what I get:

Me: "Hello?"

Mom: "Shhhhhh."

Me: "Huh?"

Mom, whispering: "Have you seen the score?"

Me, whispering back: "Oh, yeah."

Mom, still whispering: "Okay, now, shhhhhhh. Maybe if we don't cheer loudly, they won't realize they have a massive lead."

I just burst out laughing. Only my mama.

  4. I'm with you on the Mavs win, Frisky!

    Unfortunately, should they go up against the Lakers next . . . all bets are off. I'm going to have to boo you from then on. No hard feelings, I hope? :)

  8. If they charged reasonable rates there wouldn't be any empty seats. In Chicago the legal scalpers (known as ticket brokers) buy up all of the seats early and raise the already high ticket prices even higher. Good luck to the Mavs.
