A full day of football, and the favorites mostly held: France saw off Senegal, Argentina put three past Algeria with a Messi hat trick, and Haaland took a brace as Norway ran over Iraq. Austria beat Jordan 3-1, with a penalty in the hundredth minute rounding out the score, but Jordan were the surprise of the day; they played well above what I expected and made Austria work for it. The last of Liza’s days away in Miami; the house has been quieter than I like, and tomorrow it will be itself again. I exercised and took out the trash besides, the small upkeep that holds a day together.
