If I seem like I'm dragging this morning, blame the Spurs. One minute I'm at my brothers house, feeling drowsy as the Spurs coast on a 27-point lead and then, POW, we're down to what, like, eight points? With like three fricken minutes left (i.e. eternity). What? By the time the game was sealed up, I was on my feet pacing. Needless to say, sleep was shot. I just lay in bed for an hour with my blood pumping through my ears. But 2-0. Go team.
As far as news goes, we've hit a bit of a lull in our office. I'm using the time to get things cranked up with our new iTunes page. Hopefully we'll have a folder for KTXT up here in a day or two.
Crazy, crazy news here on the City Council scene; District 3... a.k.a. my district... will be represented by Todd Klein, a former Democratic Party -- yes, Democratic Party -- Chairman who got only 25 percent of the vote a month ago in an election to replace resigned councilman Gary Boren. On Saturday he won the runoff election for the City Council with 52 percent of the vote. His opponent, who was front runner a month ago, got the same 47 percent of the vote that he got May 12. This is in Lubbock, where the elephants roam in herds. I can't imagine a more ironic twist for the end of this story, considering that he was one of the council's staunchly conservative members. Not that I'm taking sides -- the writer in me just loves the delicious irony.
