Funny, these past few days I’ve been so caught up in World Cup fever (go Italy!) that I now understand all the satires about women becoming “widows” during American football games. Granted the sports are different, the reactions are the same. Guys are just so focused on what’s happening on screen, nothing else matters. It’s as if you peel your eyes away from the game for a split-second, you might miss some all too important event.

Last night at Fiama I experienced this to its full extent. While watching the Italy vs. Germany game (go Italy!), people were talking to me. I’d just glance at them for a bit; reply while looking at the screen. It’s rude I know, but at a time like that I guess it’s more of the norm.

On a side note, Italy won and is through to the finals. They’ll be going up against either France or Portugal (go Italy!). We’ll find out later who.
