Trinidad here we come! Well…not yet actually. True we did get our match tickets allocated last night which means we have tickets to the Sri Lanka vs. India and Sri Lanka vs. Bangladesh matches in Trinidad. This means we at least get guaranteed one victory (well touch wood on that one, in fact I think I’m going to fondle a couple of tree trunks on the way home just to be safe) and one (hopefully) exciting game unless of course Darrel Hair comes along and tells the brownies to get back to tending the fields.

There is this small matter of sorting out flights, which is a tad bit of a problem considering I’m not only broke but considerably in the red. The fact that my damn laptop considered to kick it and I had to buy a new one doesn’t help much either. Fujitsu is just crap when it comes to repairs and reliability, the bastards want me to mail the laptop in and on top of that charge me a $175 ‘diagnostic fee.’ Yeah sure, fuck that, ended up going and buying a Toshiba which are like rocks compared to Fujitsu. In case you missed my point, don’t buyFujitsu!

I’m hoping for two things now, one a sub $1000 ticket to Trinidad and that the trip will make up for missing Sri Lanka in December. Considering I have some very fun loving friends in Trini, I don’t have to spend on accommodation (which makes my inner miser very happy), mix in copious amounts of rum, cute brown girls (as has been evidenced by my Trinidadian friends) and cricket, March 2007 should (touch wood again here) be quite entertaining.
