Evelyn Day 75
Good morning! It is Tuesday, 30 May 2023.
In a couple of hours, I will be back in my virtual classroom delivering a cloud networking course for a few dozen folks spread out across multiple time zones. Things are in the green across the board, with all services up and running, with the possible exception of the service in my head that removed excess junk from my sinuses. I did some mowing and kicked up some of the stuff in the grasses that got into my system, and there’s only so much Claritan and Sudafed can do at 6:00 AM in the morning. Maybe that first cup of coffee will give my system a bit of a kickstart.
Watched game seven last evening in the Eastern Conference finals. Boston couldn’t buy a shot, shooting 20% from 3-point range and rebounding like a 6-foot and under team. Looked to me like Boston wasn’t mentally prepared to close the deal. They won three in a row, then dropped off the face of the planet. Jason Tatum rolled and ankle on the first play of the game and played hurt the rest of the game.
That means that Thursday night, Miami will travel to Denver for the first game of the NBA championship. Coming off a full seven-game series, then playing at the altitude of Denver. Denver finished off their opponent a week ago and has had plenty of opportunity to scout and rest up for the finals. Miami has been in dogfight after dogfight, and all of them have been at sea level. During the regular season, the Heat played Denver at home and on the road and lost both games. I’m going to guess Denver will win this series in 6 games.
Time to get focused on the day at hand. I need to call a plumber first thing to have someone find out where we might have a leak in the basement.
I hope the world is treating you better than you deserve.
Peace y’all.
