my life, as i know it. how busy i get. how productive i can be. how laziness creeps in after being under pressure. how appreciative i am. how something makes me smile. how stopping to truly treasure a moment is rarely done, but should be more often.

footie
so like last time, i've included a song that rocked on the stadium speakers during warm up. click play as you read the post so you feel as if you were there :)
during warm ups. there's not a lot of people in the stadium yet because it's still pretty early. we were just looking for a place with shade to keep from dying from the heat! it was 103 degrees!!!
some of the boys (from right to left): pete, david, ante, alan and landon (with the ball) yup, i know them so well i can tell who's who by their profiles and even the back of their heads!
fcd forward kenny cooper (with hiked up shorts). he had a good game. 2 goals in 2 minutes?! it was so INSANE, the stadium exploded! he might be on his way to europe. there have been offers since last thursday.
the boys starting their stretches. we made MANY comments during the different positions. some were just so hard to keep quiet about. :) oh, and yup, the game was televised.
ruud (galaxy head coach) giving autographs & rockin the dressy-casual look for the scorcher of a night. when he went past us, monica thought for sure that he was going back to the locker room to change into cooler clothes. but, we were wrong. he kept on with his metrosexual self that evening & looked GOOD. :)
we nicknamed the staff dude tiny. and made up stories about him. hey, what else are we supposed to do during warm ups besides drool at the boys, drink beer and invent ways to get past security and onto the field?
yup, we were super close to the field!!! 2nd row...the closest so far! :) we chatted with these beckham dudes throughout & after the game (there were 3 of them). i fit right in with my beckham jersey as well!
here we are. totally sick of the score but managing to smile. the beer buzz and surrounding fellow galaxy fans helped us power through the ass-whipping the boys got.
at one point in the game, david was right in front of us. i screamed out, "david, we love you!" and although he began to run off to go chase the ball, he flashed me a thumbs up!

I know you were sad about your Galaxy, but you should have come by to say hi to the Guardia Roja boys and girls! We wouldn't have rubbed it in... too much!
