Dortmund Stadium sees a German loss...another world cup upset!

Italy scored in the 119th and 120th minute in a game that seemed to be going into penalty kicks. I was watching this game with no particular team in mind because my beloved Brasil was out but Nan came when the overtime started and said, "you watchin' this game like if yuh life dependin' on it!" I wasn't aware I was that much into the game but i guess i must really really really love this game more than i know. so yes, when Italia scored the goals, nan and i screamed, we were off the sofa and i was all the way up eye to eye with the TV. then i wasn't even finished celebrating the first goal when they came out of the blue and scored the second one and it finished Germany. So no, the game is unpredictable this year and i am happy for that. What will happen if Portugal wins France and silences the world????? wouldn't that be a-cream-on-the-cake upset for a world cup that was filled with upsets? Something to speculate about, eh?
So the record stands. Germany has never beaten Italy and they have been beaten by italia for the first time in dortmund stadium. now, maybe i will find a TV and watch the finals.
In other news, my friend was going back to T'dad today for a vacation. we talk more frequently now.....seems as if we never go to bed before 12 so we call each other up and take advantage of free minutes. he called me from the airport before he boarded the plane. I was happy that he was that thoughtful. i've known this friend from high school in Trinidad. that will make it 12 years that i have known him. We call each other up and he tells me about his life and i tell him about mine and we exchange ideas and advice....especially on relationships. see, my friend is gay and when he talks to me, he gives me advice from both sides of a relationship. like, he will tell me how a guy thinks, what is acceptable behavior from a guy, and then he will tell me how a girl will most likely think. it's not that i am saying he is a girl but he is the more sensitive one in his relationships and i find his advice very very helpful. it's really cool to have a gay friend. for me, it opened my mind and it made me assess how far i was willing to go to make friends and keep those friends. it also made me see how far my mind was willing to stretch....let me say once you have gone beyond the box, a whole new world opens up to you.
