Ominous November

Everything in the match was going pretty satisfactorily until the second half when Sergio Ramos was furnished with a red card for challenging Kun in the penalty area which, admittedly was a foul but not enough to deserve a red card. It was painfully gripping, I had to pathetically cover my eyes in the last ten minutes, after Forlan and Kun managed to push their way through our 10-men team to score 2 goals in under a minute. On the other hand, before doomination struck the derby, the first half presented a good performance for Real Madrid, showing weak points in Atletico's defense when Kaka scored under the 5th minute unmarked followed by Marcelo's incredibly angled goal and Higuain's brilliant footwork that produced a "What was Perea thinking?!" from the commentator. Now with Adam's tweet that Sergio and Albiol will miss the El Clasico this month, worse comes to worse and expectations should run low unless I suffer from cardiac arrest. I might not even watch the entire match fearing a waterfall of tears bursting from the first whistle.

I thought I would not be able to sleep after the match, as it turns out I got another 6 hours of rest full of Real Madrid-induced dreams. The sad thing is, I could not recall any of it though it was a lively one.

I cannot wait for my contract to end. Everything in the office is so stuffed with rules, other employees are bordering on obsequiousness and I just want to quit if not for my decent division and cool bosses. It's a good thing my bosses are level headed and knows how to share timely caveats otherwise I would've filed my resignation already. Hell, even me is succumbing from the absurd weekly meeting with nothing but mud throwing and gossipmongers. Government employees indeed. It's despicable and it's amazing how much of my patience is suffering just from shutting my gob up. I just wish December would already close in.

Torrent news! I finally finished downloading Casino Royale and Muse's Hullabaloo. I don't know when will I have the time to watch those since I still have pending BBC specials in my book but perhaps I can take a peek or something afterall, it's Daniel Craig and Matt Bellamy.
