Just wet.

I woke up today feeling refreshed and as soon as I forced myself out of my bed I hit the books. Class didn't start until 4 PM, so I pretty much read two chapters in my psychology book. A very productive morning which would've been more productive if I actually went to the gym.

I left for class earlier than expected, but as soon as I sat down in the classroom, I started thinking about my game tonight. A little anxious, antsy even, but collected and ready to sit through a three hour lecture. She had some interesting things which kept me awake. And did you know there's a glad in the body the produces a hormone which gives you that giddy feeling, those butterflies in your stomach you feel when you meet someone new. If you are in a new relationship, your body produces this hormone and it's like drugs. You get this high you didn't feel before. But after six to eight months, your body gets immune to the hormone and you are in the state of being "comfortable." You think the feelings are gone, but it's normal. And just like an addict you fiend for more drugs. So the person in the relationship ends it and the other person feels like crap because for them, their drug is gone. She rambled on more and more, just as I am, and said that they should produce these drugs and give them to people who are get hurt in relationships or for people who want those butterflies.
Finally, game time. I was the first one there cause I went there as soon as I got out of class. I changed, stretched, and warmed up. The first fan to show up was Bam and I told her I was feelin' it tonight. No joke, I was hittin' jumpers all over the court. Just wet. The game was good overall except for the idiot refs and the other guy who elbowed me in the neck. I think I dropped 27, (Career high).
