Das Hier #15
What a difference a day can make as Nos Glorieux won one game and night after getting throuhly beaten by a team that is struggling like them.
At home.
So playing on the road, against a team, that is also struggling as they too are outside of the tournament as it stands now, but have the best record of the entire league, which is a good thing to remember when the rest of your games have you playing meh.
But their meh is better than whatever it is you want to call the state of Nos Glorieux.
Last night however, this is a new day, as I like to write early in the day more than I like to write later, not that I don't write later, I just like earlier better so I can have the rest of the day free to be whatever I want it to be.
Anyway, I wasn't impressed by the fact that the other team scored first and I was wondering if this was going to be another one of those games that Nos Glorieux have played far too often season..
A losing one alas.
But give them credit, they didn't waste much time in finding the right kind of reply as they scroed 18 seconds later to tie.
You can't reply much quicker than that, especially the modern Nos Glorieux.
So my disappointment was quelled.
But if asked to wager on the winning team, I would have passed on wagering on Nos Glorieux.
I would have regretted not wagering on them in the wake of two stunningly quick goals at 2:08 and 2:19 into the 2nd period which would have been enough to make one think that the game was all but over.
We can't afford to think that way though with this edition of the team.
Whatever will happen to the team though in what's left of the season, which is 33 games, that they must win at least 20 to even be close, so it's more like 25 and even then that might not be enough, they had all the answers that needed as they even a goal in the 3rd to win going away.
Which is fitting since they were the away team.
Ah, those two terrible streaks though, where they had no answer for the question of why can't you beat the teams that were weaker than you then?
That's the most frustrating part of this season, that they couldn't beat the teams that they should have been able to beat.
Not all of them to be sure, but at least three of them, which would have changed the complexion of that first terrible time.
As for the second one, that might have happened anyway, but Nos Glorieux would have have stood a better chance with five more points.
Only that isn't what happened and Nos Glorieux have a most improbable task ahead of them.
As for me, I have an equally improbable task of making this little blog of ours, because it was Petrie that started it and it's up to me to bring it to something resembling a success.
And yes, I know that I still have his name on the blog, but that's the agreement we made when he stepped away from it. As long as I keep blogging here, his name will be on the masthead.
So of course, I have to find a new place to blog so I can put it under my name dammit.
Fine, I sound like an asshole talking about Petrie that way and that is something I shouldn't do.
Maybe I should go to bed because I'm getting worked up about him and don't feel the story that I've been writing.
But I can't be sure that I won't receive and angry e-mail form my fellow writers about not even writing more of the story, even if I've already gotten the day off to a great good start without a word of story.
And I'd sooner do without another angry e-mail from my fellow writers.
"Foolish Fodi. You never questioned why you would suddenly feel as you've been feeling since the Lights? Though I suppose I shouldn't be hard on you since you are just a fish, though your lot is smarter than the average fish, but at the end of the day, you're still just a fish and the smartest fish cannot hope to have the same intelligence as that of a higher being like myself. I should put you out of your misery and let you die. What do you say?" He said cruelly, knowing that I couldn't speak.
"Ha ha ha" He cackled like he'd actually said something funny when he was anything but.
I suppose I could have made it possible for you to evolve, but no, you're much better off as a fish and nothing more."
I looked up at him imploring him with the saddest eyes that I could, not that it had much of a chance of gaining me anything, it was still worth a try.
"Yes yes, Fodi, you no doubt want me to give you a means of speaking out loud, but I'm not going to okay. You were just a means to an end as I would have joined with any body in the first phase. It just happened to be yours." He said, disgusted with my limitations.
"I wonder if that will enough for them, even though the story writing is so little a part of this writing, I'm closing in on a thousand words and could easily stay long enough to thousand u[ and my fellow writers will of course take that into account because this is already 30% of the day, which sets me up well for a great good day that I need so I don't fall too far off the pace before I have myself a day where I simply have to write words that I don't care about as much as the words in my blogs if I wasn't falling behind.
Though since I'm writing hard, wouldn't it behoove me to push the story even just a little further?
I'm sure my fellow writers would appreciate it as it would give them hope that I can actually do this thing, which I know that I can do this, but it's so late that farmers are stirring and who's up at this time of day when this is their time?
I'm going to go now. Don't expect to see me again today.
