NBA.com Blog: Gilbert Arenas

As the NBA's fourth-leading scorer last season, Gilbert Arenas and his 29.3 points per game average led the Washington Wizards to Game 6 of the first round of the playoffs vs. LeBron James and the Cavaliers. Entering his sixth year in the league, Arenas will blog on NBA.com throughout the 2006-07 campaign, a season which Gilbert dubs "The Takeover."

I’m BORED. Oh man, I’m soooo bored. I’ve never been so bored in my life.

It’s worse when you really can’t walk to do anything. I can’t walk to play with my daughter, I got to sit there and that’s so boring. She’ll jump up and down for 10 and a half seconds and then she wants to go play somewhere else.

The only thing I get to do is play with my son because he’s in the same predicament I am – he’s an infant, he can’t use his legs either.

It’s hard. It’s really hard because he wants to be moving around and at the end of the day, I can’t do it.

So, I’ll have my dad take him or have his mother take him. The only thing I can do is when I go to the restroom, my daughter likes to play in the bidet. Is that what it’s called, bidet? She likes to play in the little water right there. Or when I’m taking a shower she likes to come in there and play in the water there. That’s the only interaction I have with her. Other than that, she just likes to run wild.

Meanwhile, I have my video games. It’s like my XBOX: I’ve been playing it so much that it broke I think.

And then you know you have to be bored when you watch all three X-Men on consecutive days back-to-back-to-back.

Oh man, what a life.

I try to watch TV, I watched Life like seven times already.

Hmm what else? Oh yeah, I’m getting ready to start watching Batman this week; the complete set.

What else is there to do besides play video games and watch movies?
