Victory!

Dio and I woke up at 6 am for games 2 & 3 of his soccer tournament. The first one, with warmup at 7:15 am and game at 8, was overcast and rainy. I stayed in the car until the last possible moment. They won 4-1.

We then had 3 hours between games. Not enough to go home. And with the rainy weather, there wasn't much to do. We picked up some food and then drove to the next field, as the games took place in different areas. We sat in the car with the heater on, listening to the radio, reading, or just sitting and thinking.

The sun came out for the noon game, which was great. Dio's team won 1-0, leaving them the tournament champions!

Meanwhile Eric drove Inga to Cincinnati, Ohio for a game, leaving at noon and getting home close to 9 pm. So much driving for just one game, it's crazy! Although Eric says the team didn't play well, they still won 2-0.

Dio and I got home a bit after 2 pm. I was super hungry by then. I fast in some form every day, so it's not unusual at all for me to eat at 2 pm or later, or not at all. But I was famished today!

We watched one episode of Arcane Season 2. Then I went out to start a fire, but it was so windy that, once it got going, I realized it would be no fun. With gusting winds constantly changing directions, it was impossible to get close enough to enjoy the warmth.
