Zoe’s Letters To
Pinky: A Pall Falls Feb 2 2015
Pink,
I guess you watched the debacle
last night on tv...Mischa was holdin her hands over her eyes for most a it. I
started doin it too. Then our friend Shannon told us to bucky up and send the
good juju to the team, like we do when them stillers is playin. I said, we
never really watch them stiller’s games either on accounta we get too nervous.
Anyways we watched! And we all got
so excited, first they scored then we scored then they scored then we scored
and we scored some more....Then they scored, then they scored, then we put our
hands back over our eyes. Then we made a miracle happen and the game was once
more within our grasp....we were on the goal line, we could taste the
touchdown, we had time, we had the men, we had everything!....
And then some yahoo called for a
toss into the endzone! That was when the lights went out, the black curtains
were sent for and the pall fell fast upon us all!
That chair in the picture, that’s
where we watched the game. Mischa said she aint ever gonna sit in that chair
again. “Bad Luck!” she said to it ... uttering the word garlic and spitting on
the ground! “We’re leavin that chair vacant, in memory of our lost hopes and
dreams!” she said, and I am not
lying to you she was holdin her hand up to her forehead when she said it! I
thought it was a little extra drama especially with all the black curtains that
got hung all over the place. But guess what? It went and rained this morning,
just smeared that dark cloud all over the whole state.
Now if there is a god, do you
really think he woulda let it go that far...lettin them old deflategates win
the trophy and then spurt rain all over us on top a it....i don’t think so.
Whatever, Mischas says them patriots dint really win so much as them dang
seahawks lost. But, truth be told, it was a swell game just the same. And we
got to make up Legion of Boom songs all night, complete with swagger and tail
waggin, fist bumpin and heaven praisin. It’s all good, as they say....and them
puppy commercials weren’t too bad either. (But who does drink bud, just
sayin...)
