Week in review

Friday was good. We went to dinner with some friends then came back to our place and played some Super Smash Brothers Brawl and Pictureka. We've been hanging out with them a lot now and I have really been enjoying it. We used to go months at a time seeing each other, so it's a nice change.

Saturday was the NBA All Star Events. We went down on the light rail around 2:00 to check everything out, the atmosphere and such. We went in to the arena around 4:30 to see it all and find our seats (they were different for this event) and grab dinner before everything started at 6:00. We were seated right behind the hoop where the Slam Dunk contest was to take place. We were all given Slam Dunk score cards to rate the dunks and for those in my section, we got free Sprite Slam Dunk shirts. We had a great time. We took close to 300 pictures of the whole thing.

Sunday I went to the gym for my mini tri of the week. I swam the distance I need to swim during the race, then biked 5 miles, then ran/walked 1 mile. I was exhausted after that.  But, we were asked to go to a free event at the Desert Botanical Gardens to see Chihuly, the glass stuff that is in the lobby of the Bilagio hotel in Vegas. At this event it was all like cactus and such mixed in with the desert landscape. It was really very pretty.

This week is the return of the Suns. We have a new coach after firing our new one today after 51 games. Hopefully the team starts to turn things around, but only time will tell I guess.

In preparation for Paris, I'm getting my hair cut and colored. It needs it, I haven't had it done since October, but I've been putting it off until shortly before the trip. I'm thinking of something like this (my hair is shorter than this right now, but not by a whole lot): 

What do you think?
