When Your Friends Read Your Blog — And the Warriors Win It!

The trouble with keeping a blog that your friends read is — your friends read your blog.

Which means that if you are feeling weepy because your spouse isn’t here any more and you’ve got no one to watch the NBA finals with and you say so publicly on your blog — your friends are going to hear about it.

Which is embarrassing.

But it’s also kind of cool. Because then your friends — also Warriors fans — invite you over to watch a game with them. And then you invite them back to watch another one at your house.

And by the time the sixth game of  the finals comes around, you’ve got someone to cheer your team with.

Which is pretty cool.

Also cool: the Warriors come through and win that sixth game against the Celtics  — 103-90 — to bring home the NBA’s 75th anniversary season trophy.

Yea, Warriors!

  1. Barbie, This is so great. The world goes on and you become a part of it again but in a different way. Jon is always with you. I carry you in my heart. I read your blogs and am happy you are writing. Sue

    1. Sue. So comforting to know that I’m there in your heart! The writing is one thing I definitely look forward to when I wake up in the morning. As opposed to other tasks, like trying to find a painter to paint the house.
