oh what a night!! do do OHHH WHAT A NIGHT!!!

what a night!

well where to start...i figure ill start from the start of my day. I woke up around 2.30 after watching staying up to watch angola play portugal. angola - great side...they shoot from halfway!

anyways after writing off the day as i meant to be doing my assignment (which im meant to be doing now) i ate something...hmmm what was it....oh thats right i didnt eat for ages. i got ready and i used my special lynx body gel. now a problem i have and im sure someone can help me with it is: i have recently started using this shower gel...and i find whenever i use it i use about a 1/15th of a bottle. now is this normal? or am i using too much? i use a scrubber so i apply the shower gel to the scrubber but it get used up very quickly..thus requiring me to reapply. anwyas i digress. i said goodbye to harry my dog and told her to play good tonight and drove off.

i thought id pop in for a bit to see ppl playing tennis near toms house. after stopping off and taking a tennis ball for my own personal enjoyment, i made my way to work. now being 5pm now i was starting to get more and more pumped up. work was fine...no dramas... i considered wearing my aus top to work but then it would have got dirty and all pizzery. anwyays i left work at 8.15, made my way back home, ate a small meatlovers pizza way too quickly then rubby picked me up to go to the hood.

now rub the nub thought we should get there at 6pm. to get a spot. when met with dissension to his idea, he said 'you guys are fucking idiots'. so we arrived at the pub at around 9.15 to see the pub only bout a 1/10 full.

got front row seats. the $5 draughts were flowing abudently from the 'dirty' (emil said it , not me) bar maid. mad. the pub was filling up more and more. quite a few ppl from the club there. woody drunk as usual and like lately...very annoying. dave was hobbling around. neris changed his top from cricket australia to football australia. spominator was in fine voice. the affster had to protect libster as she was the most asian person there. doochi was tehre with 'titties' . tombola arrived earlier than expected. toby arrived and had his pommy gameface on. arif came. man i cant remember who else. oh big steve was there. antionio avolioni and daniel.

the biggest no show was buck rei -i am gay - tano (credit dave for the name) who was weak as piss and was too busy squashing tomatoes.

anyways national anthems begun...sung with gusto and pride and then the game got underway. the wait was over! australia started quite brightly and viduka was in the thick of it early. emil came up with some nice calls. rob was giving us highly annoying commentary such 'YES TACKLE' if a tackle was made on the halfway line (im kididng rob calm down...im not..) . i myself found hte first half a strange experience... all the waiting and finally i was watching the game. it was all a bit surreal at first. hte half passed quickly and i didnt feel like i was with yet.

a half time of composure and prayer and reflection began. i wore the scarfe on my head for the first half so thought i better wear it the normal way for hte second. also i got a beer just as the half started as i didnt have a beer in my hand the first half. i changed position to stand at the bar to stand next to neris and anthony...who were quite pleasant ppl to watch a game with. minutes past and we didnt look like scoring. i began to think a change was required. all the adrelinine had worn all hte beer off. at the start of the night i thought i would stand at the front table where dave was. so at around the 75 min mark i squeezed in there and was sitting on the chair next to dave and tom and within talking distance of sydney qualifiers emil and rob. the change beagn a shift in the game.

kennedy was causing probs for the japs and we just needed that cutting edge. then i thought...the scarfe...something has to be done about teh scarfe. i put the scarfe around toms neck and almost immediately cahill sweeped the ball in. it had been done.. the scarfe worked.. minutes later cahill scythed down a jap in the box. no penalty. minutes later cahill thumps in the second! it was done! tom was a national hero!!!! everyone jumping around hugging each other... seeing aff, a critic of the real football for years, jumping around for joy was quite hte sight. no one could quite believe wat had happened. 3 goals in 8 minutes! makes life all that much more worth living

we went to town...and parking at hindmarsh square, lots of people we running around with aussie tops going nuts. cars weere beeping horns nad going crazy. we walked to rundle street thinking we would see some more pppl there.. the whole street was people going nuts!

simon hill said when we qualified...'this is a team from every community in australia, this is our team...and our team is going to the world cup!'
and our team just won our first game at the world cup!!!
YEHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
