It started earlier than I had hoped and was chowing down on breakfast by 7:30 at TDS. I headed back upstairs, played guitar, and watched a DVD for a while. I ended up walking down to Bole Africa to got go Fantu supermarket then headed over to the Green View restaurant for a pizza lunch. Left the hotel with Melaku about 2:15 off to the Hilton to watch a huge Barclays football game between Manchester United and Chelsea. They made Man U almost look silly and beat them easily. I then ended up at Blue Drops for the Arsenal/Wolves game which was scoreless until the end of regulation time. There were 5 minutes tacked on the end of the game and at about 95:07 Arsenal scored then the game ended shortly thereafter. Yes 95:07 is past the end of the 5 minute for-injury-time-out period, but the game always goes a bit over that time.
Tomorrow is action-packed with a lunch with Yared from the office then a visit with Metasabya and her family, she being the woman who works days at Deker Inn. I also watched the Sony Ericsson women's final from Miami before heading home tonight and Clijsters easily beat Venus Williams. Venus had a lot of stuff wrapped around her knees and she must have been out-of-sorts somehow as her unforced errors were so unlike the way she usually plays.
