    Too bad this happens only once every 10 years. Good luck next time.

    Reading a CF thread about acquiring CP in FA. Probably reading a comment by a naysayer about how he would be a fool to choose Houston over SA. I was "working". Spent the rest of the day being unproductive. It was a good day.

    Kept me awake for quite some time while browsing through Clutchfans. :D

    My first reaction was though ... who did we give up ... then I saw Bev, Dekker and Williams. For a while, I couldn't remember we still have Lou Will on the roster. Anyways, I started laughing (silently, at work). Un-real. I still don't believe this is happening. Though, I am bummed that we had to give up Trez to make it happen.

    On a, what was soon to be, 7 hour WebEx call implementing a new system for our company.

    Lots of people from our Austin branch that are Spurs fans.... Wanted to yell:

    "IN YO FACE b****!"

    To all of then but refrained. I love my job as much as I love my Wockets!

    Moving stuff into my new (temporary)apartment since I'm about to divorce my philandering wife. That trade definitely brightened my day.

    I was driving on sales calls, just getting out of a meeting, and a coworker who is a Mavs/All things Dallas fan texted me "CP3".

    I was at my student conference at UH for state mandated stuff and I got the alert. Couldn't contain my excitement so I turn to the 2 guys next to me and say "CP3 is coming to Houston!!", the response I get are "I'm more of a lakers fan", and "I'm a Lebron fan all day". First off **** those guys for raining on my parade but they were clearly bandwagon fans. But I connected later on with some real Rockets fans And we rejoiced and worshiped Morey. All in all it was a good day
