Less than 15 minutes to go before World Cup 2010 kicks off with South Africa vs Mexico: good luck, everyone!

It was thrilling -- and a big HA! to doomsayers, that's for sure.

I was at work for the first match, but my (Mexican) manager kept sneaking me status updates throughout the match. :D He and the Big Boss actually sat down on one of the tables and streamed an hour or so of the match through Big Boss' laptop. ♥

Managed to leave work early and get home in time for Uruguay vs France to make me cringe with the amount of injuries around halftime.

That sound about right -- most employers in my country give up expecting optimum productivity and/or maximum attention at work during the World Cup. *g*
