| <Hey look, it�s all short. The definite air of depression makes up for it.> Dear Stephen Fleming, 8:37pm Sister has gone back to Uni, so I�m writing to you just as me, Puppet. Unfortunately I cant just watch cricket though � I have a KILLER algebra test tomorrow (tonight NOT being the night to stay up till 5am) so my logarithms will distract me. Sister has a message for you � Go Hard! Stay Strong! Kick Ass! � That�s it, word for word. 8:51pm The Bangladeshi captain is very hard to understand. Makes you sound especially articulate in comparison. 9:00pm First ball bowled by Shane Bond 9:20pm Instead of keeping me busy, by logarithms are driving me round the twist� its depressing� I�m gonna FAIL� 9:28pm Woot, go Shane Bond. Nobody seems to be celebrating much. What�s wrong with yer? 9:41pm Great, just great, I fell off the couch (shuttup, SHUTTUP) and smacked my head on my maths text, which caused a bleeding nose and now I have blood all over my books, this letter, my pjs and the floor. 9:46pm STUFF JAKE!!! Bust out the hat trick 9:48pm YEAH!! Only one more!! BRILLIANT 9:51pm No hat trick, but who cares? Two wickets in two balls is still great! - The commentator is pronouncing your name �Step-en�. Makes me laugh� 10:07pm AWWWW CHRISTOPHER!!!! - Its a lot quieter with Lou not there. (Just seen him on the telly, looking bored to death) no constant yelling. Brendon does pretty well, but you can�t hear him as much. Not as encouraging. 10:24pm Finally- go Shane! 10:52pm I�m not writing much, because, lets face it, this innings is bleeding boring. Tempted to go to bed. Wont. 10:59pm Okay, it�s getting less boring. Nice catch mate!!! 11:09pm That was a good scamper from Shane, and the guy to get out gets out. WOOT!! 11:30 I miss my siblings. It�s been four days since Sister and two of my brothers left. (The third Brother lives in Dorkland and didn�t come home.) And weirdly enough, I do miss them. I suppose being the youngest of five makes you used to having people around. I�m not so keen on being by myself. 11:40 YEAH!!! Stuff Jake (again) and Brendon!! 11:45 AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH WHAT IS THAT BUG!?!? ITS HUGE!!! Don�t look at it and hope it ignores me, don�t look at it and hope it ignores me� 12:12am Once again the arithmetic of the situation fails me. Two ends of the wicket. Three batsmen?� Half-time Not pleasant. You�ll win, no sweat, but its not exactly the way you want to do it. Batting Craig McMillan in 1:13am Stephen Fleming in 1:13am 1:17am First boundary. Scored, unfortunately, not by you - Once again, you a lucky man, Flem. - Even though we can�t hear him, Saint Clair looks as though he is saying �I�m bo-ored. Entertain me-e� 1:45am JEEPERS!!! Great over Stephen! Just awesome. 2:12am Oh Stephen� hold your head up. You did well mate. Don�t you let anyone make you bow your head. Stephen Fleming, out 2:12am, runs 32 Andre Adams, in 2:12am Stephen, I�m going to bed. I feel pretty shitty that I�m awake and not doing my maths homework, or the 10% history essay that�s due Monday. No change that, I feel like total crap. Sorry to make you the agony uncle, but there�s no-one around to sound off to. To quote Donkey from Shrek � �I think I need a hug�� You will win this game Stephen. And, as always, I am proud to watch you do so. Good Luck, Stephen Fleming Yours in Cricket, Puppet (Letter finished 2:23am, in the 17th over, Adams and McMillan at the crease) P.S. hey Stephen! I didn�t make fun of your sunnies! |
