thanks x giving

this year's thanksgiving was the first that i've spent in southern california, away from my family and completely alone. to ease the pain, i bought tickets to the clippers game that you guy's saw in my last post. here are some of the highlights from wednesday night.

the house that Shaq (not Kobe) built.

handle that.

blah blah blah.

our seats were...pretty good. thanks Thuloan. <33

allen iverson. one of the most influential players in the last decade.

los angeles definitely gave denver's dynamic duo a warm welcome.

carmelo anthony. one of the nba's young future hall of famers, lost in lebron's shadow.

after the game, i headed out to hollywood like the trendy hipster fuck that i am to check out Social Hollywood. i don't club that much, but as far as these joints go, this one was the nicest that i've gone to in a long time. makes me wish i had money and game.

this is my friend toan, he's allergic to alcohol.

i got teabags for the sleepyheads.

rock toan republic.

in the end, the clippers bested the nuggets 101-90. sandra was kind enough to invite me over for dinner with her lovely family and friends on thanksgiving. i learned that nrb is shorthand for noribang, which is a karaoke joint. i spent most of black friday sleeping and playing video games. the deals simply weren't good enough for the effort.

i hate nba 2k8 and the recently released, college hoops 2k8.
