Wizards 94, 76ers 87

The Washington Post recap is calling Iverson "awful" but in fact the Wizards played well -- my favorite kind of game, one that my team won rather than the other team screwing up. Larry Hughes scored 43 points, had one of the best first halves (halfs? damn I love sports talk!) and was a lot of fun to watch. Arenas, who had a great game Sunday, is out for several weeks with an injury so this is a hopeful development.

We were stuck in horrendous traffic on the way downtown (took the Virginia side figuring it would be easier than fighting Canal Road and the Whitehurst on the Maryland side, but it could not have been any worse). Fortunately we had left early enough that we had time to go to Chinatown and still get to the stadium in time for the Star Spangled Banner. It was a fast game, not a lot of stupid fouls, and an easy drive home. Oh, and it was free backpack night, so we all got nice embroidered Wizards backpacks -- pretty good for $10 tickets.

Plus the Patriots are winning at the half, so my in-laws will hopefully be in a good mood when they come over tomorrow.

Fanfiction.net review of "Weather": "There is absolutly no possibility that Jack and Stephen could have such a relationship. Both are happily married and never show any interest in each other." Whee! I keep thinking of my favorite line from Peter Pan: "Never is a very long time."

And because I haven't posted one in awhile:
