Hoop dreams

Thursday afternoon David asked me if I wanted to see a movie. He was playing hooky and wanted to spend the afternoon at the theater. I was meeting George and then going to B&H but I told him I'd meet him afterwards. We went and saw Finding Neverland (note that there are links to my reviews of the last five movies I've seen in the right hand column).

Afterwards we went back to his house. We played a few games of basketball on his Playstation; he trouned me. Then he wanted to watch the Rockets game and he put the Rockets game beside the computer game on his plasma tv. I said I felt like I was in a sports bar. He said he was amazed that he would sometimes watch my game instead of the live game.

When I left he lent me his Sega Dreamcast. He could only find the basketball game; I said that's all I was interested in. I'm planning on training so I can beat him next time.

Last night I went out with Kit and Eric to see Days of Being Wild at the Film Forum (review tk); it has easily jumped to one of the top spots on my list of favorite movies. After I came home and Tulip went to bed, I started up the Dreamcast. This morning, Tulip said she had had a dream that I was up late playing video games. She was right. I was up until five thirty a.m. Posted by eku at November 20, 2004 2:58 PM
