Dream Big

Joe (very sad):  I'm going to lose this week.  My playoff run is over.

me:  But you are winning at life.  Doesn't that count for something?

Joe:  I wanted the trophy.*

me:  Do you really need the trophy?

Joe (sighing):  It's just that I was going to take a picture of myself Tebowing with it and put it on Facebook.

His problems are very real, people.  Not nearly as valid as mine.  My need for a drive-thru Starbucks is all-consuming.

*Last year, Joe and his buddies built a 3.5 foot tall fantasy football trophy which is awarded to the fantasy football league champion.  This is, apparently, a very big deal.   It really is a shame, because it would have been so awesome to have that in our house.

Tragic...tell Joe I'm thinking of him during this very difficult time.
