What did you do when we won?

It was wonderful.

they don't follow nba and have no idea why i blew up.  hell, i was jumping around and running in circles when they skipped 6.  it definitely felt like we were dreaming when we came in 1.  wow.  i spent the next few minutes rambling spastically at my wife and bro to explain the significance, and called anyone who would care or maybe partially understand.

but not now!! well, actually, im still sick... but the #1 pick the best remedy!

I laid in my bed with covers clenched over my chin. Surprisingly, I've got my Cubbies sweatshirt on... no bad luck there! I like to live on the edge. I even forced myself to actually dream today of getting the #1 pick. I always think it's going to jinx us (in our 4 year lottery history)... so I went against conventianal wisdom and let myself dream. New era twin towers... or, Durant on the break with Sergio leading... I let the imagination go. As I became increasingly sick with the flu I held on for dear life so I could see it all unfold. My heart literally skipped 2 beats as the 6th pick did not reveal the scarlett and black. Got the fever, cold sweats, heart beating... commerical break. Then comes the announcement... a healthy YES! as the 3rd pick reveals the Hawks... then... in my shaking induced sweat, looking The Natural right in the eye.... the reveals the Sonics... out of my death bed and up roaring like lion. The flu is gone! (not really, but I'm as perky as a sick dog can be.

phew... now I need to rest and let the dreams become reality.

Sitting in the graduate community center here on campus and screamed at 3 separate times: when we got passed at 6, when Atlanta came up at #3 and when Seattle came up at #2.  Needless to say, the people socializing nearby looked at me funny.

Then I called my dad.

Yes! with every pick beginning with nine, each "yes" getting louder and louder and the fist pump getting more pronounced and the heartbeat increasing. By the time they announced pick #3 I was thinking of calling 911.  When my heart slowed down I called my grandson, but nobody answered so I've only shared it with my cats who don't care. So back to Blazersedge where people DO care.

popped my trout jersey. i picked up my phone to start calling people but my phone started to ring before i could dial anyone. fielded and placed probably a dozen calls and text messages. then logged in here for more!!!! i can hardly contain myself!

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!

talked to like 5 people online on aim, blah blah blah, shocked some people...now...

WWWWWWWWWWWWHHHHHHHHHHHHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My mom was ready to call a psychiatric hospital and told me not to jump so hard because we cannot afford to fix a hole in the floor (meaning, she thought I was gonna stomp through to the first floor).
