Nine years ago tonight, I was happy. Unthinkingly happy. Unconsciously happy. It was a haze of bliss then. It’s still a warm feeling now. Nine year ago tonight, the Chicago Cubs finally did it.
Perhaps someday, when November 2 rolls around and I think about the anniversary it marks, I might be filled with more sadness than happiness. There would come a point – some year in the future, couldn’t say yet exactly how long it would take – when the distance from November 2, 2016 will feel so vast that I can no longer just be at peace on a day like this. I mean, obviously ‘1908’ at some point became a negative thing rather than a ‘woot woot we won this thing in 1908, baby!‘ thing.
Nine years isn’t long enough for all that, thankfully, and I can still look up at the various Cubs World Series artwork and trinkets and pictures around my office and just smile. That World Series, and especially its conclusion, was such a happy, happy, happy time. I still feel what I wrote after the win.
Admittedly, pretty soon I’m going to want the Cubs to make another deep postseason run so I can lean on more recent anniversaries. Getting to Game Five of the NLDS is nice, but it’s not quite enough to be celebrated a decade later, you know? I want more.
Until then, I’ll just keep enjoying the moment:
