Fever

I've got a Fever. And the only prescription is more soccer!


Even for someone who doesn't watch soccer regularly (me), World Cup can be a lot of fun to follow. Sure, I don't know half of the rules, but it is one of the few sports in which a country's prosperity and its performance are not perfectly linked and think there's something really cool about that. 

I'm particularly enjoying the World Cup this time around, as I am surrounded by people from the countries that are actually good enough to play! Our coffee shop has brought in a projector and big screen to televise the games. I may not know enough yet to make an educated prediction about who will take the cup, but I can tell you that I'll probably be in the company of someone from the winning country when it happens. 

Woohoo! I love this fever.
