Today I
Unfortunately I stated my case only 10 minutes before kick off and I was actually able to watch sweat bead down the Hubby's temples as he desperately tried to pay attention to
I gave in by busying myself so that he was able to get two radios blaring from different sides of the house. Kind of me, I know, but I draw the line at doing foot massages. I don't care what some radio psychologist thinks I should be doing to keep my husband happy.
We won. Norwich City, that is. I know that because if I had wanted to, I couldn't have escaped the sounds of the game. I also know that the win was largly in part to this guy and his brilliant cross--Mr. Eye Candy himself,
Simon Lappin.
Yes, you poor people, it's Simon Lappin season again. Don't bother trying to reason with me either, because you could end up reading more riveting posts about shoes or the always amusing (cough) children toilet stories.
Blame the husband.
We used to play board games for fun.
How's your summer so far?
i know the lonely feeling.
ReplyDeleteohhh I feel for you. My whole life was like this, I had four sons...
ReplyDeleteWe bought an extended cable package just so my husband could watch Premier Soccer. I feel your pain.
ReplyDeleteMy family doesn't watch a lot of soccer (or football as you call it there), but they do watch baseball, and football (American style), and basketball. It seems to never end. At least you can enjoy the eye candy when it's on the television, I suppose. :-)
ReplyDeleteI feel your pain.....pre-season (american) football started last night. I am just so excited. Dripping, oozing sarcasm!
ReplyDeleteOh man. Totally have been there! (I mean in your husband's spot.)
ReplyDeleteIt's the other football season here as well. At least with soccer, you can actually see the pretty eye candy--with foolsball (as I like to call it)--if there are any pretty faces, they're all covered up. Enjoy your season!
ReplyDeleteTis football season here as well. Good ole smash 'em up and run with the pigskin!! All TV's will be tuned in on a regular basis to the gridiron!! Cheerleaders will be bouncing (yes bouncing) up and down to the beat of DEFENSE DEFENSE DEFENSE !!!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy!! I know I will!!
Hugs

No TV in our house but my husband gets on the internet and then cannot for the life of him focus on what I'm saying. First, if I try talk to him, he answers me with this very abrupt, You. are. interrupting. my. very. high. quality. TIME! type of, "HUH?" Then I, very excited about proceeding at this point, tell him my very important tale while he looks at me with this glazed over look in his eyes and then looks back at the computer after a grunt, showing he was listening...then, shortly after will ask me something that tells me very clearly HE DIDN'T HEAR A WORD I SAID!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteOh I so get it. Dr. Laura is is some hot water over here this week...maybe she's not the be-all end-all....
ReplyDeleteI feel your pain. It's baseball season here and each team plays about 100000 games. Ugh.
ReplyDeletehang in there,

It could always be worse…you could have acne or fungus on your toes.
ReplyDeleteAhhhh - the television. That unrecognized third party in a marriage. It can be a bugger, can't it?
ReplyDeleteyou should totally escape for a few days... like to Canada! Come to Blissdom Canada in Toronto with me at the end of October. Just think of the sports-free fun we will have!
ReplyDelete:)
It is football season here too (American football, of course) so I will know that lonely feeling well.
ReplyDeletePlease keep posting about Simon Lappin, because I'm a big football fan.
ReplyDeleteYessirree, I am! ;-)
