At this very moment, I'm a happy Cub fan

It's the first inning. We're playing Atlanta. They are putting the legendary John Smoltz on the mound, against some little puppy pitcher we just brought up, Ryu. Ryu gave a homerun up to the second batter he faced. Oh Lord, thought I, here we go again …

Oh, Laur of Little Faith. Right now, at this moment, at the end of the first, we're up 4 to 1! That's 4 runs on 3 hits. Against John Smoltz!

I am not writing any more. I've been a Cub fan too long. I know it's still early. I know we can blow it. I don't want history to diminish this happy moment. We've had so few this month. Right now, we're ahead 4 to 1. And I'm going to savor it.
