A Kid Named Stilo

I really need a place to stay. My lease is up tomorrow; my former roommate has already started driving back east. I was supposed to move in with some friends off 7^th and Lamar but that fell through when they raised the rent to cover more of their own expenses. So if you know of anyone who needs a roommate for like 4 months or who does not mind someone crashing on their couch….let me now please!

Austin or Round Rock does not matter…..

I absolutely hate my two local recreation centers for one major reason; basketball court rentals. 

They constantly rents out both basketball courts for various sports (basketball camps, volleyball & badminton). They do not seem to care about alienating their normal members. I understand they need extra revenue but still…it’s irrating when I make my way out in the rain, circle the parking lot for 5min just to get a spot wayyy in the back and then get told courts rented the entire day. 

Worse than the renting is the staff, they seem indifferent. The woman at the desk went and got the athletic supervisor to explain it to me. I fucking know whats going on, no apology is needed just pass on my frustration to the parks and rec department. 

So I had to drive cross town to the other rec. Get there and one court is running a full court game with like 20 people waiting to get in. The other court has a dad working with his two daughters at the main goal on one end, and a private coach working with a few kids on the other end. I spent my time shooting around on the side goals, and trying not to get in the way of the kids and their coaches.

I was still able to work on some things, but feel cheated somehow….

Do I have a valid point or am I just bitching?

I took a mean ass left and my legs decided to go on a fucking vacation. Finished the sparing session and turned down a repeat. When the ringing finally stopped I heard my boys screaming.

Assholes the lot of em. Icing my fucking face and watching clips of Muhammad Ali in his prime. Fuck it all….

Yeah!!! Just wrapped up 4 games of 4 on 4. We played each game to 30. A decent workout, got winded in the second game but pushed through and held it down on defense. My shot was off. Hit a few open jumpers but mehhhh. Bed time, up @ 5am for a shooting session with my boy =)

peace, and stay blessed.

We played on Wednesday.

I came out on fire. Knocked down the first basket for my team which was a three. On offense the game was slower than we would have liked. Although I am the slowest on the team I wanted to push the tempo. I missed “3” layups. Each one I missed came from attacking the lane. Need to work on finishing. 

We lost the game by 13. Sad……I held down the defense but we gave up height and length. Back on the court tomorrow…need to work on a great many things. 

I am now discovering my love for women who are in great physical shape. A woman who can throw on a pair of athletic shorts and sneakers without worrying about her makeup/hair is a beautiful thing.  

I mean…I can’t be alone here right?

I keep hearing their weights do not go that high, and they are sort of “hard” on people who grunt..and like to lug heavy things.

I had an awesome workout. Fucking fantastic I might even say. Bench was amazing, around 205lbs I felt the sweetest pumps I have ever felt. The smoothest lifts ever. I also noticed I workout extra hard when other people are in the gym. I get a few killer workouts when I am alone but tonight there were about 4-5 people working out as well and I felt good.
