Where Amazing Happens

It's NBA playoff time - which means that my entire life comes to a halt and every night is spent in front of the TV. It is very similar to the NFL season, baseball season, Deadliest Catch marathons, any John Candy movie and any time I am within 10 miles of a TV watching Planet Earth in high definition.

So here is my list of priorities until the playoffs are over -

1 - Watching the Cavs
2 - Telling people my apartment is "Where Amazing Happens"
3 - Flip-flopping on all opinions to match what is currently happening
4 - Talking about how much I hate the Celtics even though they are out of the playoffs
5 - Trying to convince the Lady Friend that my wearing pants during the Cavs game is bad luck and that I am very superstitious. Also getting my own beer from the fridge is bad luck. And could you open that while you are up? Thanks.

You need a mini fridge by your couch. Can you imagine how awesome that would be? I would never get up, well until I had to pee.

Peeing ruins every thing.

I've been telling girls my apartment is where amazing happens WAY before the playoffs started.

I should have trademarked the saying.

good luck tonight.

I'm assuming your definition and her definition of amazing are quite different. Thus the beer opening issue.

Men are such lazy bastards. All except you of course. *ahem*

I am excited the Cavs are coming to town and even more exciting that Orlando is going to win... Wait, I think I have said too much.

GO CELTICS!!! Even if they are out of the playoffs.

The moment the Celtics picked up Starbury I turned to my coworker who's a big Celtics fan and said, "That's it. You guys aren't winning the title this year."

The moment I read something about the NBA my brain shut down and my organs ceased.

Basically.

I don't get it

Maxie said...

Oddly, the hubs likes it when I watch sports sans pants. I'm not sure why, but he practically insists on it!

@Lbluca- We may actually put a minifridge next to our couch. That is technically in the same room of the kitchen.

Unless we can train the kittens to get beer... hmmm...

What's amazing is that you even have a lady friend after priority #5 there...

Now THAT's amazing.

I take it #5 puts the "amazing" in Where amazing happens?

Yay LeBron, boo Dwight Howard, etc. etc. -- but seriously, you just reminded me that the movie The Great Outdoors exists. Score.
