There you go. Go nuts :).
I found out yesterday that weisy and goodbyetuesday have been deleted. I don't know, that just made me sad. I still can't bear deleting them from my flist :(. -> Hmmm, better check out the comments to this entry. It ain't pretty :(.
Yesterday was the AFL Grand Final. West Coast Eagles beat the Sydney Swans by ONE POINT! Seriously! One measly goddamn point. Good for the Eagles, and actually for me too, cause I can never support Sydney (heh, yeah I'm part of that eternal Melbourne vs Sydney battle ;) ). I actually won $35 on that game too from a money pool for the Norm Smith medal (like the MVP for the Grand Final game). For $5, we picked out 6 names of players from a bowl and apparently, I luckily picked all the favorites!
Yeah, yesterday I watched the game with a bunch of blokey-blokes, who were basically strangers to me. A workmate of mine invited me to his place to watch it with his friends and for some reason I agreed. It was very odd. I mean I'm so not a blokey, one-of-the-guys type of girls, so I barely said anything. And for some reason, even though I felt uncomfortable a lot of the times, I ended up going to a club with them. Oh well, I had a good time despite the fact that I wasn't dressed for clubs (I had on just jeans and a yellow t-shirt for one-part of the Eagles colors :D). The boys weren't bad looking, but unfortunately the one I set my eyes on was the only one NOT drinking (think he was the designated driver ;) ). He was quite sweet though. He had a bottle of water and would share it with me everytime I asked. He even went out to buy another one after I asked for water and it'd run out. He kept dancing around me too though he didn't really talk to me, so I was kinda getting this mix signal. I would have made a move if I were a bit drunker (ha) and if he weren't so sober and my workmate's pal (yeah, I just don't want that kind of gossip in the office, thank you very much).
So that was my Saturday night. I'd planned to stay home and call my mom (yes, I'm a homebody), but I suppose going out wasn't bad.
Tonight is Rugby League Grand Final. I'm not really a rugby fan because normally that is a Sydney thing. I'm serious! We Victorians watch the AFL, while the New South Wales-ians (???) watch rugby. That's why it's SUPER IRONIC that the ONLY Sydney footy team got into the AFL Grand Final, while one of the two (maybe) Melbourne teams got into the Rugby Grand Final. And no Sydney rugby team is playing too since Melbourne is going up against favorites Brisbane Broncos. I've never seen a single rugby game, but I'll tune in tonight to cheer on Melbourne. GO STORMS!
FI - Chinese GP is also on tonight! Renault on the front row, I heard, due to a wet qualifying :). Yeah baby! I think I'm hoping for rain in China, though, uhhh, I suppose it'll make it risky for everyone including Alonso... Hmmm, but bridgestone in general is not too good in wet conditions, right? Oh well, we shall see :).
So yes, an evening of calling my mom and sports watching for me :).
