With my move to Portland, my love for NBA basketball returned. Gone are the days of Air Jordan and my girly crush on Mark Price (yeah, seriously!). Now I'm a huge fan of the Blazers (well, not enough to buy season tickets, but I do watch every game on the tele religiously!). This past spring, my beloved took me to my first live NBA game. It was fantastic!!!! Of course, they lost that game to the Celtics, but I was won over. Portland is now my town, the Blazers are MY team, and Travis Outlaw is my guy. Their record may not be comparable to the world champs, but they're a young team and they're learning. They have so much potential and it's just great to cheer them on, win or not. Tonight they're playing the Celtics again. I really REALLY hope they kick the Celtic's trash-talking arses!!!
P.S. Yes, I have retired "Mrs. Chris Martin". I felt it was too strange to be one Mrs. in writing and becoming another Mrs. in real life. Quite unfair to my beloved. Of course, I won't be changing my name legally, just socially. I don't think I look Scandinavian to pull off Swanson. ;)

I had been debating my name change a bit. I wanted to have both and hyphenate it but decided no way, too long. So I'm going with Tbear's name. I definitely don't look Scottish, but either does he so it all works out! Haha. I'm not a big sports fan but have gotten into college basketball in the past, mostly when the Aztecs are doing well. I'm a total fairweather fan and hate to watch my alumni team when they suck.
Yeah, that would be a mouthful. You can always make your maiden name your middle name? You'll be LCM. I'm going to LOVE saying your new last name with the Scot-ish accent!! hee hee
They smoked those trashing talking arses didnt they bubba? U were Neerrrrvooouuuuuusssssss, weren't you.
For sure! I'm already practicing my new last name with the scottish accent. It's fun : )
