Daddy’s favorite team (the Rangers or "Blueshirts") was down by two goals yesterday and he was pretty miserable using words I had never heard of. One word in particular seemed to be used as a verb, adverb, noun, and adjective – if you take a moment to ponder it there are really not many words that can be used that way.
With Daddy so upset, I decided that for some good luck I would put on my jersey and cheer as loud as I could. My good luck worked because before we knew it the game was tied and we had plenty of momentum. Daddy hugged and kissed me after each goal. After the game was tied I left to go play on our swing-set and when I came back Daddy was crying – tears running down his face while screaming at the television “oh the humanity, why me? it is not fair!!!” Apparently, things went a little downhill after I left.
Mommy didn’t seem very fazed by this or sympathetic for that matter and told him to get a hold of himself as we walked by. As Mommy carried me upstairs to change my diaper she told me that she has seen this sobbing approximately 14 times – 13 times after the Rangers got eliminated in prior years and the other time when Aunt Lori said she was moving back in with us.
