The time has come to announce to ET the truth, that I have become an idiot.  Perhaps it's due to the aftereffects of medication, perhaps to the limited diversions available in rehab.  One would hope i'm stronger than to bow to the loneliness effects when one's girlfriend decides to go Tanz in den Mai, and, well...

I'm going to drink Wybarowa vodka and watch Chelsea Liverpool.

Is there a chance i'm not an idiot?

No - you've merely become briefly normal. It will pass.

Tanz in den mai ???

I doubt you're in any condition to go gallivanting around. Chill, cuddle your scotch and feel smug that you're watching the match, as it's only on Murdoch-vision here so I won't see it.

keep to the Fen Causeway

Luksusowa's the way to go - it's potato rather than grain based and thus has a nice softness and hint of sweetness.  As for your soccer watching, not really my form of mindless mind diversion, but whatever works. I'd probably go for good food - cooked if I'm up for it, cold cuts and cheeses if not, plus either a well written junk SF book or a mindless DVD.

Who wants to be normal anyway? I'd rather be a fool...

being a joyous fool, that's me cup'o tea, and this match is fookin' great!  Best match i've seen in many months. Still null null, but wow.

And what a goal! It's told it's Droghba's revenge for something Benitez said of him (something about a video library full of Droghba's dives).

But just a minute ago, the 1:1 was a beauty, too!

3:2. But Liverpool could have won, had the stupid referee not denied them that penalty...

my girlfriends sisters husband and her father went to the pub together tonight to watch the match. the husband is a fanatical Liverpool supporter, from cheshire. The Father is a waterman from the estend, and lifelong Hammers fan. but in his youth was part of a group that used to go drinking that included Frank Lampard Snr and Harry Redknap. so given the option of a team thats from London and includes a mates son he's probably going to be the only chelsea supporter there.

It's predicted that it will all end in tears, I'll find ourt tomorrow.

I went off to look for a Mark Steele quote about sport, from his tv biography of Mohamed Ali which runs along the lines that anyone who dosent like sport is wrong and came across this

BBC/OU Open2.net - Mark Steel Lectures - Interview

the guy who they got to talk to us about Aristotle came up with a brilliant quote - about the rich judging everything by how much it cost; an ancient version of "the price of everything and the value of nothing." It was a brilliant quote to have over shots of Blair meeting the Hinduja brothers, and Richard Desmond and Rupert Murdoch, because that's how they judge everyone - if someone's rich, they're successful; if someone's done some extraordinary thing but haven't much money, therefore they're a failure.
