Weekend Wrapup

This is a somewhat random post. I'm going to be skipping around a lot, so bear with me ...

First off, I just need to say how disappointed I was about the Liverpool loss to Manchester United on Sunday at Old Trafford. To be honest, Man U deserved the win, Liverpool was playing far to square on the defensive line, and Mascherano acted like a little whiny brat. Doesn't make the loss any less hurtful. I can take a little comfort from the fact that it took the Red Devils almost 50 minutes to score their second despite Liverpool being down to only 10 men. And despite the Liverpool defense being so square. Ah well ... to the triple header against the gunners we go.

That Sunday was full of disappointment. As if the Liverpool loss wasn't enough, Arsenal failed to hold Chelsea. That meant that Man U opened up 6 point lead at the top. The tears would have flowed freely, if the whisky had been stronger ...

Fortunately Monday was a public holiday. I'm so happy that the Romans nailed that man to a tree and then spread chocolate eggs around for all the sad people to eat. It really helped get over the abysmal sporting weekend. I spent the day lounging with my wife. Her tummy is now classified as "really gorgeous and big". In fact I lay last night with my ear pressed firmly against the side of her stomach in the vain hope of hearing the little ones kick or something. In point of fact I did hear something, but it was probably a tomato being digested ... I'm going to delude myself that it was the kicking of one of my sons, it'll help me get over the fact that my wife can feel them and I can't.
