11:03: my sister is home! my sister is home! my sister is home!!! happy happy joy joy....

wev and khali picked me up last night in this horrid lemon yellow two-door lancer with a ridiculously high spoiler, a subwoofer in the trunk, an lcd screen, and funky lights. apparetly the rental we had arranged for my sister to use was still unavailable, so they gave us a high school boy's spaceship instead. it was a trip, though. we got some liempo from andok's and kizzi brought a few beers. we drank on the way to the airport and met up with toon there. after four years and four months, the six yuloy kids are complete again. it's odd how familiar we are with ferdi considering we've never met him. it's great, though! he must have been overwhelmed with all five of us there. we all agree, he's a cool guy. i'm looking forward to spending more time with them (with everyone, actually). they were talking of planning a weekend trip out of town. how i wish i could get weekends off.

i think i'll crawl back into bed. my back has been terrible lately, so bad that i've had to miss work. tests show nothing though, so it's probably just muscular strain. the doctor gave me an ointment to use which does help a bit. i'm thinking a two-hour massage would do me wonders.

11:32: i think i've lost my voice from screaming too much while watching football. but it was well damn worth it!

i haven't watched spanish football since the start of the season. i know that barca is on the top of the league with osasuna 7 points behind them (go osasuna!!), and valencia and real madrid finishing the top four. no complaints from me as i love all four teams. i only wish betis could be up there, too.

i know that madrid hasn't been doing well this season but i did not know that they've been using a new coach recently and it's been doing wonders. i am soooooooo incredibly happy to have seen this game against sevilla.

iker may not be as sharp as i remember him to be, although he still is a great keeper. i remember a time when he'd make a save and be up again in half a second to make another save. this time, he let two goals in after making the initial saves. but no biggie.

that new brazilian player (forgot his name) is great, too. if solari and figo hadn't been traded to inter, they'd be doing really well with him. this new coach, caro, knows how to use his players.

zinedine zidane. zizou, my zizou. the man was on fire! i haven't seen him play like that in a while. he made an assist for the first goal, then scored the other three goals. yeah, baby... ain't nothing sweeter than a hat trick from your favorite player! like my brother once said, "that guy is just. plain. good." i was jumping up and down and screaming like an idiot with every madrid goal that was scored. *sigh* what i'd give to have been in that stadium for that game.

god, i love football.
