Saturday Bits & Bobs

Hey all – hope you’re having a good weekend. I’m feeling a bit run down and crummy this weekend so I’m trying to get some rest. Here’s some bits & bobs. First up, this fantastic shot of El Pirata taken by his friend Rorro. I miss him so much! I wonder where he’s going to end up next season?

Wednesday Night Bits & Bobs

Well, folks, it was another one of those work days and I just finished dinner. At 10 PM. So this is going to be a quick post. Cris & Irina were reunited in NYC and looked pretty darn happy to see each other!

A Quick Bitsy Bobsy Post

Oh people, what a day I had! I was an hour late for work due to some sort of subway police drama and my 20 minute one train commute turned into about 90 minutes and FOUR trains. UGH. Then I spent the morning on conference calls followed by an epic 5 hour straight meeting. To say my brain is fried doesn’t cover it. So I thought I’d post a few quick pictures of some of our faves. Who better to start with than Marcelo?

Updated: Bits & Bobs: Icky Mouse, Deafening Fangirl Screams & More

I know Shigs would take one look at all these pictures of Kaka with America’s favorite rodent and say “Icky Mouse” as sure as I’m standing here.  Speaking of, I had a lovely time with with watishistas Shigs, P, forzasusan & Baby Girl last night at the Spain vs. Ireland game. It was a drive by for me. I pretty much arrived and hit my seat right before the national anthem and tore out of there right after. Week night games suck.  Ireland did a great job much to the delight of forzasusan. I spent a lot of time sneaking peeks at Nando bitchfacing non-stop on the bench.  He did bust out a big grin and a hug for Robbie Keane though.

Tuesday Bits & Bobs

Iker was in Qatar today to open an Aspire Academy and look who he was interviewed with – RAUL! (Squee!)

Wednesday Training, Lots of Goodies & Leo Torres Falls On His Bum Some More

Spring has sprung and our sexy croissant is throwing flirtatious looks around (and for once, they’re not into his own camera phone).

UPDATED: BABY ALERT: A New Alonso?

Could it be?? Another perfect baby to be born into the Alonso family?? It certainly looks that way! On Tuesday, Nagore presented the new Links of London collection and in addition to looking gorgeous in her fitting, blush dress, the media noticed that the fabric not only hugged all the right places, but a little belly too. During the event, she spoke with ¡Hola! saying that she wished to expand her family real soon and that she doesn’t care if she a has a boy or girl, since she’s already got one of each. Three days later, it’s being reported that Nagore confirmed that she’s got a bun in the oven and apparently two & a half months along, though I’ve yet to see where she’s dished about this new bebe. Hopefully we get a solid confirmation soon, so we can really SQUEEEEE, but by the looks of that little belly….it looks like the Alonso’s are going to have a December baby! YAY FOR BEBES!

UPDATED: Maisougio and I posted this info at the same time so I’m deleting my post. She did confirm her pregnancy in Hola, so it’s a go. (Lozil)

A Bit Of A Catch Up

I’ve been incredibly busy for the past 5 days so I’m going to try to do a quick catch up post, although I know that I won’t be able to fit everything in. Yesterday was Mother’s Day and many of the players posted shots with their mamis and/or partners. Easy to tell Marcelo’s grin anywhere, isn’t it? He’s barely changed!

Some Sunday Bits & Bobs

As usual I’m behind in posting a bunch of stuff. It’s been a tough week. Haven’t been feeling well and there’s a lot going on plus the Clasico. So here’s a few post match goodies and bits & bobs.

The biggest question of last night was why is Sergio still so very nekkid when everyone else is practically in their coats and out the door? Not that I’m complaining, mind. Well, actually, I am. Move the damn shirt, sir. We know your name and number. Thanks. I see he’s icing that shoulder. It looked so painful when he landed. 

Toothy Bits & Bobs

Lots of bits & bobs to get through. My emergency dental appointment was fraught with drama and insurance snags. In the end I was begging “Just yank it! For the love of all that’s holy, just yank that damn thing!” And after several hours wait, they finally did. I’m home now with an ice pack on my face, less one wisdom tooth. I’d rather be having some of Calleti’s birthday cake, that’s for sure.  Alvaro & Carlota provided a lovely Oreo cookie cake, which everyone had to pose with and/or photograph.
