    In the office. Immediately took my pants off and dry humped the water cooler.

    The trade definitely helped. Plus, Tamiflu rocks, feeling much better already. No need to be sorry, Max. Great day, great day.

    Wrecked with the flu while your eyes were glued to your screen, fingers on the keys, just waiting for something to happen! I'd say it was a fair trade, wouldn't you? ;)

    Ironically, I was playing NBA 2k GM mode and making trades for my Rockets.

    I was doing GARM reading in another really long thread and didn't notice for an hour. Was wondering why the thread went cold. :D

    Then next thread I saw was Windhorst says Morey is not done, and I was like, "sigh, another thread about what Morey will do." Not knowing he just did something.

    Note to self, have two cfnet tabs going, if you're going to read a long one for awhile, you need to still F5 the thread list.

    Had SportsCenter on in the background, working from home today. As I'm walking out of the room, I look at the screen and see the words 'Chris Paul' & 'Rockets'. Took me a second to process -- then I rush back into the room to see several missed texts on phone & Twitter going off.

    At work, half participating in a conference call and half reading the "Rockets emerging as serious threat to sign Chris Paul" thread

    Was extremely busy and saw the news. Quickly checked Clutchfans and I thought I saw a thread title saying we got Paul George too! What a let down once I realize I misread, hours later.

    My friend who always finds out breaking sports news from me texted me:

    How do you like Chris Paul is as a Rocket?

    I said, "WTF?!?" and googled it fast AF.

    Shame that I read the news from another forum. Have not been following clutchfans forum as often since the disppointing game 7.

    Immediately got back here to see you guys' reactions.

    Just getting out of my truck heading into the office. I got a notification on my phone, so I checked it before walking in the door to the office. When I saw the message that Chris Paul had been traded to the Rockets, I nearly did a 180 and head back home to celebrate, etc., because truthfully, I did not get much work done today. :oops:
