Embracing the Sounds of the Fat Lady
3 days, 5 glasses of wine, 2 vodka cranberries, and 1 hour of church after the Saints’ crushing overtime loss against the Bears, the Chicks have started to accept the fact that our season is over. Without going into graphic detail, let’s just say “acceptance” feels a little something like this:
The Saints are out of the playoff hunt, the Falcons are on a roll, and my fantasy team is pretty much crashing and burning as I type. I’m so annoyed with football right now, I actually allowed myself to watch that dreadful Katie Holmes movie “The First Daughter” during the Steelers Ravens game. 30 minutes in, I realized the only person I was punishing was me.
I can wallow in negativity about this for months, but I won’t. That formula hasn’t boded well for me in the past. So instead, I’ll focus on the “positives” of ending a season 8-8 at best. Think of it as a trip to optimism-ville. Join me, won’t you…
