the luminous outset became the interminable middle

So Three Weeks for Dreamwidth is happening or at some point. I would like to participate, get back in the swing of things--perhaps do some icons or something.

Great news: I have a new laptop which should enable me to be more present. For probably over six months I've had to to use my tv as a monitor which made my laptop into a desktop that stayed overheated. But today I finally bought a new laptop and the first day has been rather good.

Playoff basketball is here!

* I continue to be distraught about Rose.
* Orlando showed some grit but Indiana should be shamed.
* I do believe the Knicks/Heat should be more competitive than what the first game was but it may not, especially with Shumpert's injury.
* Spurs just don't fully interest me until they play someone more interesting.
* OKC in 7 though Dallas is going to make it rough.
* Memphis in 6 b/c Clippers can't be this consistently bad, can they?
* Chris Webber should call all the games.

Did watch Mad Men and Once Upon a Time. More on those two tomorrow when I get some sleep.
