224. Back

2 wins on a trot ain't half bad, considering the Blues' recent form. Let's hope they build on it.

And the fatter one of the pair that is Messrs Gray and Keys has been sacked. Karma baby. Next up is to get rid of that pesky beady eyed fella. Smug lil twat that one.

Celebrity presenters born of a celebrity culture. I guess if people keep telling you how great your are (and I'm not talking about people that matter here...only brown-nosers and arse-wipers), then you start believing your own hype.

Sure all football pundits are created equal...it's just that some pundits believed that they were more equal than others.

Lights out.

223. Happy?

This suddenly occurred to me...when was the last time that I felt truly happy? Not talking about Chelsea winning the double last season happy here, or that relief mixed with joy emotion that washes over you once you've finished something really difficult either.

I'm talking about that feeling you could only feel deep in your heart. When for a time, all is perfect. When everything fits as it should be. And there's nothing in weighing in the mind, encroaching like an unwanted guest. Real happiness here.

Strange, but I can't remember. Only I do. Probably years ago when I still knew what happiness meant.

Now it's just a mess. Life does that to you sometimes...it puts your judgement off. Drats, and it's a real bummer. I mean that.

I sometimes wonder about how things came to be like they are and how the choices we've made in life led us to the place we are now.

We can't all be who we set out to be in life. Every dreamer must awaken. And though time might pass you by sometimes, there are always other things out there.

But who knows eh? Never too late to start dreaming again.

222. R. Baggio Can't Save You Lot

Stranger things have happened.

Perhaps Chelsea can pull it off. With ideally the enigmatic David Luiz shoring up the defence. And a Kun Aguero leading the attack.

One can only dream.

Bobby Baggio, where art thou in a time when miracles are needed? There hasn't been one in a decade. Truly.

Trust

and world peace.

221. Twenty Eleven

What does it hold? Only what you make of it.

Lessons should be learnt (hopefully) and mistakes not repeated. But history always has a bad habit of repeating itself...over and over. Sometimes it takes a good beating over the head to really drum it in.

Anyway, that aside, this year, as all the ones before it, and all the ones yet to come, looks rather promising. Let's get it started already.
