the_muppet: (Mannschaft ~ Torsten after-match press)

So I just spent another 20 minutes or so whinging to Deb that I can't watch the Werder Bremen vs Chelsea match tonight and it's Torsten's birthday, dammit.  And she was actually pretty sympathetic considering she totally doesn't get this obsession  :)  Then M came in and said I could have an early present and left a large Thorntons toffee cake on the desk ..... which made Deb & I pretty happy  :)  And did I mention that 'Radek' left an apple tart on my desk yesterday?  *g*  He said the cake fairy had been ... I don't think he got why I was suddenly spluttering coffee everywhere.  Anyway, I can't eat all this cake so help yourselves  ;)

Plus today I'm quite cross about something but am having trouble not feeling guilty about being cross.  Did I mention that guilt is my default position?  Along with paranoia?  And an over-active imagination  :) 

Oh, and I've changed my default icon for the day.  Because I can't watch the match tonight.  And no, I'm not over it yet :(

*returns to sitting in a corner with her cake*
I've found a way to watch the match on my computer thanks to Uefa.com  :)

And that's about as coherent as I can be right now as I'm SO BLOODY EXCITED!!!!!!!!!

*goes to get coffee and get comfy*

I had to pay £3 via uefa.com to watch this match and it was worth every penny  :)  Not just because Werder Bremen won, but also for the couple of times Le Grand OTP couldn't stay away from each other even though they were on opposing sides  ;)

First time was in the tunnel when they were all waiting to come out.  Torsten (as captain) was at the front of the Werder players, but conspicuously kept looking over his shoulder at the row of Chelsea players next to him, then looking forward again.  Then looking back again for a few seconds then forward.  After doing this a few times he obviously spotted his target because he turned and walked away from the front of his team and back towards the Chelsea players, whilst at the same time someone walked out of the middle of the Chelsea line ~ Torsten and Micha greeted each other happily then went back to where they should be ..... but Torsten still kept looking over his shoulder at Micha, right up until they walked out onto the pitch!

Second time was when Micha was injured in the 2nd half.  As he sat on the ground and was being treated, all you could see was a Werder player stood next to him the whole time  ;)  Couldn't see any Chelsea players around, but maybe that was just the camera angle ~ or maybe they just realised he was in safe hands  ;)  Torsten then bent down and ruffled his hair a bit before Micha was took off the pitch.  That was so damn sweet  :)

Yep, worth every penny  :)

Though I really must either resist the urge to pay for and watch every Werder Bremen game, or find someone with Sky Sports who will let me watch them!

EDIT:  Then Deb phoned .... she saw the 200th episode of SG1 for the first time tonight so we both spent a few minutes squeeing over our evenings then laughing at ourselves!  :D
