"GOAAAALLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!"

That's what you would have heard if you'd been at my soccer match last night. And if there had been Italian or South American commentators there.

Yes, in our final game of the season, I scored! I also scored once earlier in the season, but it was more of a rebound off my leg. Oh, and it was for the other team, so we don't talk about that one much. This one was a bona-fide, shot-off-a-pass, from the top of the box Goal. A two-pointer, even. Whoohoo. I also had a couple of rather spectacular take downs earlier in the game (one resulting in me tumbling endo style over a guy's leg, and another involving me attempting to make a goal with a ball that was evidently securely in the goalie's mitts) but no points were given. Video would have been nice though.

I'm home on my lunch break now--typing this from here after a nasty virus scare on my work computer this morning. I was just looking up song lyrics, and suddenly pop-ups galore and Norton Anti-Virus blinking at me going "You Are Screwed. Please Notify the Proper Authorities." So I'm a little leary of internet access at work right now. Too close to quitting to lose my job now!

So I'm going to go eat some lunch...just thought I would share the Goal-Love with you. Ciao!

I can picture you in my head making that shot! I feel lucky to have once seen you play soccer in Lawrence. It was fun and almost made me want to play, but I am soooo not a sporty girl like you are. Although I have always wanted to become one. But at the first scrape I'm toast and wanting a drink! :)
