Go Sounders!

[eurydicebound]

Just got back from a job interview that seems to have gone pretty well. I finished a bit of dishes, got some dinner together after realizing I'd forgotten lunch entirely, and now I'm sitting down and watching the Sounders kick New York's ass. :) Up 2-0 as we near the half, this is just about as well as you could hope a franchise opening game could go.

I still have to finish my paper and deliver it tonight, but that's okay. The prospect of being employed in a couple of weeks (and while it's not official, that's what the indications are) have relieved my stress levels considerably.

The game was fantastic. I had gotten Gab and Gio tickets for the game for her birthday, so we were actually at the stadium.

I think I might actually enjoy soccer now.

(Kasey Keller's father or uncle or something was one of Gab's soccer coaches, so she was super-jazzed for the game.)

I will say: the Xbox 360 color scheme everywhere makes me want to punch someone. Fortunately, we were seated near a small pocket of New York Red Bull fans, so, well. Yeah. Convenient.

American soccer needs more football hooligans.

Congrats on new employment! YAY!

Oh awesome. I'm so glad you had a good time. And maybe now I'll be able to afford tickets to go to a game this season! That would be very cool. If you guys go again, let me know. Maybe we could make arrangements. :)

I do understand your Xbox aversion. Hopefully you'll continue to channel it appropriately. :)

It isn't new employment yet, and it's working for the Man again, but that's better than sponging off the parents, right? :)
