We're watching the Japanese rebroadcast of France vs. Portugal, which we saw live on French TV.
Because it's on.
Besides, I missed the first half the first time around.
I have to say, France's strong showing this World Cup as been great for France, but hasn't done much for the entertainment value of the French commentary. The announcers are taking this entirely too seriously. Instead of snotty remarks about players' hairstyles and gossip, we're getting actual sports commentary. Even when France isn't playing, they're talking about which team will win, and whether they'll be up against France next.
Also, this makes for less of the "Oh-la-la!"
In cat news, Sparky is still taking the pills okay and is really mellow. Today when Oz sat down beside him on the couch, he didn't hiss and run away. (My cats only like me. They run away from everyone else.) Oz said, "Maybe you need to cut back his dose?"
In house news, my gutters are still leaking. Oz is doing nice things to the garden. Plumbing problems developed on the day before the holiday as they always do. And I have to figure out how to start getting the bathrooms redone.
Could life get more exciting?
(Yes, any day now …)
