OK — so the sportsologist’s 6:30 AM date to watch US vs. Slovenia was kind of a dud. No, really a dud. I had already walked over to Azzurri by the time the guy called to say he had showed up. He was 15 minutes late. And he wasn’t really all that cute — didn’t look anything like his picture. The game was fun, but at halftime, he was on his iPhone the entire time. Um, not cool.
I happily trotted over to Azzurri after the game to hang out with my Italian friends and watch England vs. Algeria with them. A scoreless draw, after the referee’s debacle in the US game, was the best possible outcome for the Yanks. If we beat Algeria, we’re in!
My classes start tomorrow, so I don’t know how much time I will have to watch soccer and write. I will do my very best, though!
