looking ahead to the 2011 NBA season

San Antonio is retooling itself in the off season. What we need are quality back up at both the point guard, sh ooting guard and power forward positions. We also have to look at the poist Tim Duncan era in San Antonio. I know it is almost unfathmable to think that there is a basketball world in which Timmy isn't playing. However it is a reality that we will have to deal with sooner than you think. I was aware of that as well.

Europe Was a Blast

Although it was freakishly expensive Europe was a blast to be in. Spain and France were a lot of fun and I got to hang out and watch an uber boring soccer game. When the Spainards won the world cup it was like Christmas and the Fourth of July put together in terms of the party atmosphere in Madrid. None the less the trip is over and real life begins anew here. I was aware of that as well.

The Return to Normal Hours is good for me

In my almost two week long Spanish vacation I have spent some pretty crazy days and nights. The long and the short of it is it is immensely both exhausting and frustrating. Biologically we need sleep and we need to rejuvenate bodily functions. Here those rules don't seem to apply in the party hard atmosphere. I was aware of that as well

Sleep Casaulty of My Vacation

Sleep has been the casaulty of my European vacation. I did get to go to Brezier in the South of France which has a much more agreable climate than Spain. Although I did enjoy the medieval village of Toledo. Spain is a second world country no doubt. France is the first world and I am enjoying a welcomed respite from the constant travelling. I was aware of that as well.

I was supposed to leave on Wednesday 07/07/10 but I instead arrive on 07/09/10 due to a snafu with my passport at the Indian Consulate in San Francisco California. What a debacle. However I am happy to be here and it is good to see the family and witness the chaos. I was aware of that as well.
