a most useful game
i'm all about the World Cup this year. the last time i watched it was when i was living in Ukraine and didn't have any friends or a firm grasp of the language; sports tend to be relatively self-explanatory. so, i'd spend some of my free time watching the game.
i got into it again this year because of Isaac. i was in New Haven missing Vegas and hanging out with Cuz. Saacie was there and he and i camped out in the living room and watched the games. so, i'm hooked.
i realized rather quickly upon returning home that soccer is a lot more fun to watch with company; you tend to feel less silly when you're not the only one arguing at the refs on the screen or yelling "GOAL!" so, i've taken this opportunity --since the games are, at least, 90min. long--to do some spring cleaning. except for when Angola (who is now out) and Argentina (who just beat Mexico 2-1) are playing, simply listening to the game is sufficient. i'm also recording the games and have DVR, so i can always back them if i want.
(props to Saacie for showing me what $10 extra dollars a month can get me)
anyway, so now i get to enjoy hours of the game and accomplish lots of much needed cleaning. it's a good thing i'm doing it now, because the first round is over and the games are going to get a lot tighter, which will draw my attention more. the other good news is that i don't have to keep punishing myself with no dinner until i get my work done. it worked, it's just a shame to have to be at that point with your house work.
after these next two weeks, my place is going to be spotless.
