To Italy, a cup.

I am 100% Italian and being this I am also 100% fanatic about the world cup and only the world cup, the rest of the time I just don't care about watching games.
Today, Italy took home their 4rth World Cup and what a game it was. My husband, wanting a sense of competition in the house, was voting for France. When Italy won I did a victory dance right in front of him and the child, it was a glorious dance, one that even the baby had no words for. She looked at me with that "what the hell is wrong with you? You is loco, mama", look.
Today more than any other day ever, I wishes I was back in Italy, at least for just one day so I could see and participate in the celebration that I know is happening. Stores will close, Bars, Restaurant and streets will be full of happy people and my cousins are probably having some vino watching the goals replay over and over. Sigh!!! I miss it.
