Oh piss ...

I was watching the cricket this morning, which was a bit ordinary, but I told [livejournal.com profile] shocolate  that it was bound to improve.

Them the lovely [livejournal.com profile] pseudicide  PMed me and inveigled me into comic-buying adventures rather than my planned day. I came home, and it had improved! So I started to watch again. And Australian Peter Siddle took a hat trick -- which is to say claimed the wickets of three England players for you turkey-stuffed and stuffing Americans and yes, that is bad because I support England in cricket. And the last one was Stuart Broad and I was looking forward to watching him get all sweaty.

So now I have turned the telly off, in hopes of a fine display of tail-end batting away from my bad influence.

Shocking state of affairs! Here, for old time's sake, let us admire [livejournal.com profile] raitala's Stuart icon.

Excuse my butting-in here, just wanted to say I read this post out of pure curiosity, and found it very amusing because it's like I'm reading a foreign language (the only thing I know of cricket is the name, and the fact that, apparently, England and Australia have an on-going vendetta at it :P).

I'll just let you guys go back to it now... :P
