a day of mourning

today the french put us in our place (again!!!)...i along with all of nz and all kiwis around the world am sooooooooo depressed at the loss of the All Blacks that I can't bare to leave my house! it sounds ridiculous and i wish i was kidding...but we lost our quarter final...i woke up in the early morning to watch it on tv and have been wandering around in a daze ever since....i can't believe we lost again....we have only won 1 world cup....we didn't even make the semis....we win every other game...aaaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH.

it's like a black cloud is sitting over my head....i haven't even changed or brushed my teeth.....i just can't believe it....why why why....we had 4 years to get this right....i feel like drowning my sorrows.....i'm so upset...we never get this right...i never want to watch another game...it's like London all over again...i was in London when we lost that world cup...i nearly took up smoking. this seriously sucks!!!!!

For those who don't know what i'm talking about it's Rugby. Just a game to most people...but to me it's everything good about being from a small nation in a big wide world...we take on the world and we win...but never at the world cup...ok once but that was so long ago who cares????!!! 20 years....and we haven't won the world cup....i'm not up to going anywhere today.

Well i am not a rugby fan but because i am married to a boston guy of course i am now a red sox fan. YIKES and we live in Yankee territory! but....now i know how the red sox felt...we hadn't won the world series in 86 years!! and then in 2004.....AWESOME WIN. but....let's keep things in perspective...it is all just a game! LOL love your blog, and your son is adorable!

hi faith
you're right it's just a game...and still i'm upset...it makes no sense:-) i really hope the All Blacks don't take as long as the red sox - I will be dead and buried by then...or senile and i won't care:-)

visited your blog - awesome! will pop over regularly now i've bookmarked you.
