Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

My reasoning by analogy was totally unnecessary.

Well, sometimes I forget that Google is right there in front of me.

I googled, but I went for history rather than future scheduling.

That might be the most exciting penalty kick tie-breaker I've seen.

When it's not my team, I love when it goes to penalty kicks.

It's very intense.

I feel sorry for that one English guy who was a last minute sub and had to kick twice.

Oh totally, except he clearly was a penalty kick ringer and should have known better. When he went for it, even I thought "but there was no whistle!" And I am very dense when it comes to things like that.

Of course, since I was rooting for England, all English misses meant "aww" and all Portugal misses meant "yeah"!

That's why I feel bad for him - his only job all day was to make that penalty kick and he botched it by not waiting for the whistle. That has to suck.

Argh! I have errands to run, like picking up dog food and going to the library and picking up my sister's dog.

But the last time I drove my car was on Monday and I left the door open and the battery is dead. And I forgot to renew my AAA membership last month.

So I just went online and renewed my membership. How long should I wait to call AAA to come give me a jump?

Have you gotten a confirmation e-mail? If you have, I think you're good to call.
