The Chicago Bears lost yesterday
& I know in the grand scheme of things, this is not a big deal.
At all.
But, it is to me.

So.
Now’s your chance.
Stop reading.
Find the exit, quick.
Because as much as I’ve been trying not to go there, I’m going.
ooooooooo, I am going.

Hello Gloom.
grrrrrrrrrr

WHY do I let them DO this to me ????
why ??????
I’m going to waste a perfectly beautiful Tuesday sulking because the Chicago Bears played horribly yesterday.
Why should it even matter ??
& yet, this happens each and every time they lose.
A big, dark cloud will hover over me all day long.

boo.

I wasn’t even going to write today.
Thisclose, I was THISCLOSE to throwing the blanket over my head.
I figured I’d put my lighthearted, little ‘Smile’ story up here instead
& no one would even know the difference.
But, writing always helps my brain.
So, here I am.

ugh.

Doggone you Bears.

Baseball never did this.
Baseball never, ever put me in a depressing, daylong hole.
What is it about the game of football, especially Chicago Bears Football that does this to me ??
What ? What? What ???

Gaaaaaa.

& I PROMISED myself I wouldn’t.
Don’t let them get to you, I said.
It’s only a game, I said.
It’s a long season and anything is possible, I said.

waaaa.
Just waaaaa.

I’m going to have my coffee now.
The sun will be rising at any moment
& then I am going to go about my day.
I shall shrug off this dismal cloak I wear and return my heart to jolly
& I am NOT going to let your 0-2 record bother me, Chicago Bears.
Nope. Nope. Nope.

Oooooooh.
Yes I am.
I so am.

rats

I’ll be happy again tomorrow.
I. Promise.

Today ?
Today I just need to wallow in the mud and the muck
& I will ponder WHY ?!? do I dooooooo this to myself every flippin loss ??!?

It’s because I love you, Chicago Bears.
I really, REALLY do.
You squoosh my heart to bits when you lose but, you bring me the greatest possible joy when you win.

ahhhh
Win.
THAT’S why.

Next game.
It’s time to start thinking about the next game.
Yep. Sunday.
C’mon Sunday ….. ! …..

oy
& heavy sigh.
I’ll do it tomorrow.

oh Bears
