Knicks vs. Suns

During dinner at Famous Dave's on Rt. 1 Tuesday night for Dawn's birthday dinner [take 2], Tim made the suggestion of going to a Knicks game to see her beloved Nash. Haha... anyway, so we went last night. I didn't blog for yesterday because we got home past midnight, missing the 10:15pm NJTransit train back by a mere 10 minutes to the end of the game. MSG is a good venue, there are no apparent bad seats there. We paid $24.50 each for our tickets and aside from the slight urine smell it was pretty good. Sec 419, row A, seats 3-8 for future reference. We purchased the tickets through StubHub and had to pick them up since we used his account. We all paid him back in cash in the end. The Knicks won, which I didn't really care for but I'm glad Joaquin had alot of fun. It was his first ever Knicks game. Although I was wearing my orange NewBalance shoes and blue socks, I was sort of rooting for the Suns. Nash is still gross for licking his hand throughout the whole game. We got 5 footlong hot dogs, 3 large sodas, 1 potato knish, 1 Dove ice cream bar, and nachos. We were still hungry after the game. We hung out at the train station for the 11:18pm train. I was the only one with a camera because unfortunately, Tim bought her camera but forgot to install the battery back. She had been charging it before we left.

As for Dawn's bday dinner, Famous Dave's was the same as the last 2 times we all went there together. Empty and quiet. Kuya Uge said the hostesses could do their homework it was so dead. We did invite Kuya Ugo and all but they declined as usual. American platter ordered, good for 4. The 5 of us barely finished it.

Some things that occurred to me today:
- I have a long road ahead of me towards improving myself. And then I remembered that quote from somewhere about if you don't know where you're going then it don't matter what road you take.
- My biggest enemy is motivation. I could just get over it and get things done and yet I will sit here for obscenely long times doing nothing.
- The Special K diet is not possible or rather pretty difficult unless you live by yourself. People either eat your cereal or since there is regular food for everyone else, you'll end up eating normally anyway. I would have to lock myself up during dinner time or something. Also, if you're to replace 2 meals with cereal and one regular meal, what stands in the way of eating that one regular meal throughout the day. Divvy it up in portions and eat it as snacks because eating cereal is boring. I don't care if there are blueberry or strawberry versions, cereal is boring.
- The First family is a black family. Staggering history is being made as we all sleep unawares.
- I'm going to make my own planner. Maybe the tactile involvement and layout execution will motivate me somewhat. Plus it'll be pocket sized.
- I like that show Burn Notice. I like that belt bag that Fiona wears too.
