This hasn't exactly been the best week for me personally. I've had to take two trips to the hospital for two family members one who was having surgery and another who feeling ill which required me to leave work early Wednesday and be at the hospital until 2 a.m. Thursday morning. I've been swamped with work and as a reporter I've become beyond frustrated with stories I'm writing not making the paper or being cancelled.
A laptop I bought last Friday for around $1,400 had some sort of screen defect so last night I drove out to Best Buy to get a refund. Somehow without too much hassle I was able to get a refund (which hasn't actually hit my bank account yet). Somewhere in between everything I turn on the Cavs game on my phone or on the radio and am surprised when they are up 17 at half.
In the midst of watching or listening to this game on the go, I'm also picking up dinner for my family. While I was in one location to return the computer my family accidentally ordered food from a place that's even further away from home. As I keep going further and further out the Cavs' lead keeps shrinking and shrinking and by the time I pick up food for myself the game was tied and then the Pacers hit a four-point play. It takes me so long to get back home that family members start calling me during the final few possessions of the game prompting me to hang up or not answer the phone.
I know this is just a stupid game I shouldn't care about but I just don't want us to go out like this. I'd rather us go out guns blazing than blowing big leads to the fucking Pacers. And something that sucks is the next game is at 8 or 8:30 Sunday night so if we lose we had to stay up relatively late.
