Paula Is Home Again

Paula went away to a dog show yesterday without me, but it was not a dog show where Shibas were shown. She came home today, we were all happy to see her.

Paula did not see the USA play Italy in the World Cup. We hoped Mum's home country would win, off course. It was a match where a lot of things happened. One Italian and two US players had to leave the field. Italy scored once, the USA scored twice, but the latter US goal was rejected due to off side. The rejection was probably correct, we were more upset with the fact that the USA did not get a penalty when one of the Italians took the ball with his hand and then kicked it away in front of his own goal. The italians played well, but the USA should have gotten that penalty and won by 2-1.

This afternoon, Japan did not play well against Croatia, but did not lose. The result was 0-0. However, we fear the Japanese team will not get to the eighth final.
