The Chicago Bears lost yesterday
& I know in the grand scheme of things, this is not a big deal.
At. All.
But for me, it is, it soooooo is.
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, Doldrums.
grrrrrrrrrr
WHY do I let them DO this to me ????
why ??????
I’m going to waste a perfectly beautiful Monday, sulking, because the Chicago Bears did not play their best yesterday.
Why should it even matter ??
& yet, this happens each and every time they come up short.
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 share a lighthearted, rerun instead
& no one would even know the difference.
But writing always helps my brain,
so, here I am.
urgh.
Doggone you Bears.
Baseball never did this.
Baseball never, ever put me in a depressing, daylong funk.
What is it about the game of football, especially Chicago Bears Football, that causes this reaction ??
What ? What? What ???
gaaaaaa.
& I PROMISED myself I wouldn’t.
Don’t let them get to you this year, 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 soon
& 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 1-2 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 ??!?
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 ….. ! …..
ba
heavy sigh
& who the heck am I kidding ?
I’ll get there in 24 hours, because this 24 will be all about those Bears
oooooooh, Bears
