however, there is 1 big reason for this post: LA COPA MUNDIAL. or in english: THE WORLD CUP.
yes today was the final game. and i was pretty anxious as i was not going to be able to watch it, and my team somehow made it to the end. who woulda thunk? espana (my team) v. the netherlands. both newbies for a championship.
so i had a big, elaborate plan about how i was going to avoid any and all mention of the world cup today, so that i could have the game recorded for me and catch it "live navi time" tomorrow and be surprised by the outcome. this was going to be possible by boycotting the internet & other media sources, and by telling any of my friends interested in the game to please not relay information my way.
well it just so happens that i make it almost through the entire afternoon of international-folk-art types (you know the types that would probably know a thing or two about an international sport event) and just when i least expect it, i hear some random festival partaker chanting "ole ole ole, ole, ole." and that was it. i just knew, spain had won! then i hear the same stranger mention something about a score of 1-0.
great. just great. no earmuffs or la la la singing was going to prevent me from not hearing that.
so needless to say, i'm 99% sure spain won, and i will be watching a replay version tomorrow. can we say, "VIVA ESPANA?!!!"

Wooohooo! It's no Argentina, but they so deserve it!!! :)
