Breaking from the doom and gloom of my last post, Liverpool are in the Champions League semis, Fernando Torres has scored 30 goals so far this season (and Stevie G 21) as of tonight, which includes the goals against Blackburn Rovers. The ref in the game was a bit blind and/or biased. I think that while players try and push the limits to see how much they can say without being booked (not necessarily abusing), conversely refs do try and exert their position, especially now that they think they can just brandish cards whenever players open their mouths. Really, the treatment that Torres gets from defenders is disgusting, but just because he doesn't whinge and carry on like a certain other player from another team, referees think they can ignore the hacking and shoving that he is getting, even giving him a yellow card when he is the one being fouled. Torres, however, has shown his ability and mettle by scoring 22 in the league so far this season. Love him for it.
It was also my sister's 21st birthday on Thursday. Being the lovely sister that I am, I only managed to find her a suitable present today: whoops :) I think it was worth the effort and it will be worth the wait for her, though. At least, I hope so! Just before her birthday, she did receive a letter that I wrote to her before Easter, which she found pretty entertaining, so hopefully she'll be able to forgive me for this.
