Yes, there is a Football World Cup going on in Canada and we actually talk about it, watch the games, hear about it in the news etc., well some of us and some games. The general interest isn't as great as in the men's worl cup, but still.This time more Germans watch the games probably because we're greedy and want to make the double. And I think I'm not qualified to start an eye-candy thread for this world cup, maybe others will do that. Anyway, even the women like men playing football, but women - not so much. Girls don't play football in the streets or the schoolyard very often, boys do all the time. It's hard to overcome certain traditions I think.

Thank you, Cole! You gave me the right pointers and I have to say I'm glad how it turned out. The dialogue master...*blush*. And I'm sure it would have worked, you two are good together.

It was really nice to write the boys again. Can you believe Jonah was the responsible one this time? Thank you for the review, Lit. I'm glad you came back to the RRS world. There will be more coming fall.
-
Oh my, Romeo's butt must hurt by now. LOL Of course you all are absolutely right, but I think Julian did the right thing and Jonah's lecture helped. Thank you for the review, Wayne. The boys will be coming back in fall, I already have an idea.

Thank you, Puppilull! I'm glad you think so. The things we do/did...
-
I'm so proud of Jonah! LOL And as I already said, there will be the day I write someone you can kick and Carlos can slap around. Maybe it helps? Thanks, Tim!
-
Thank you, Val! It was fun to let Jonah be the reasonable for once, haha. I would have never thought, by the way, that you see yourself as the queen of anxiety. And I think Julian has everything under control, otherwise Carlos and Tim will gladly help, me thinks.
-
Ah, you always want to slap at least one of my characters around just a bit. Maybe we invite Tim and I write one of my special guys and you two can knock yourself out slapping him around. Could be interesting. What happens when they meet someone who draws them out? They'll be liked anyway or they get slapped just a bit. Thanks for your kind words, Carlos! (About my writing, not slapping around poor Romeo.

Yes, Pete wasn't a lovable character, but I have a thing for those who everyone hates at some point, especially if they turn around a bit, without losing their personality . Great job, Val.

Even though I didn't know Ben and Rush ( I do like their initials by the way), I loved the story from the beginning. I liked the background information you gave. It's very interesting to learn how these things are handled in another country. Your description was to the point, it helped to see everything and understand Clay's situation. The pacing was perfect. And I will definitely read about B&R, the things I learned about them in this story made me curious.

Wayne, I loved hearing about Charlie and Scott again! Their story was among the first I read on GA, I don't know if I was already a member then or just lurking. Anyway, I expect reading about their wedding next. Great job.
-
Well, they obviously had a lot of fun. I had too. I can't say anything about how well you described Miami, or Orlando or the other places you mentioned, I guess I need to do some more traveling. Oh - third!

Sooo late.... Happy Birthday, Val!

3 PM The world's first recorded long distance road trip by automobile took place in Germany in August 1888 when Bertha Benz, the wife of Karl Benz, the inventor of the first patented motor car (the Benz Patent-Motorwagen), travelled from Mannheim to Pforzheim (a distance of 106 km (66mi)) in the third experimental Benz motor car (which had a maximum speed of 10 miles per hour (16 km/h)) and back, with her two teenage sons Richard and Eugen, but without the consent and knowledge of her husban

Romeo is going to spend a romantic weekend with Julian. Jonah will take care of the coffee shop. Everything will be perfect. Until Romeo gets cold feet.

I think the German piece wasn't bad, it just wasn't ESC-ish enough. And thank you. Well at least for me and some of my friends it's a love and hate thing. It's nothing we take serious, more something we can complain about, talk shit. It gets more and more boring though, not IDK, weird enough I think.

Oh well...zero points. I should have visited the jazz festival.
-
I'm going to walk the dogs now.
-
Ha yes the clothes were great. Tonight it's black. Or white.
-
Yep.

I'd love to sit in your beautiful garden and hear more. Happy birthday, Cole!

Happy Birthday, Cole!!!

Poetry Prompt 9 – Sonnet: Never again
Aditus commented on Aditus's story chapter in Poetry Prompt 9 – Sonnet: Never again
Thank you, AC. I love sonnets and I will definitely write more - with four-lined quatrains. It somehow didn't fit here. The sentences felt to be short. So, I hope you don't mind if I stay away from first love for my next sonnets or I might be short again...
