Fall

Sometimes lately I feel like I’ve been taken over by dancers from “Up with People!” or put on the psychic Hallmark wavelength, or placed in a John Denver song (“Sunshine… on my shoulder… makes me happppy..”)

It could be the new job***, the twins new soccer team (the joys of watching others exercise cannot be overstated, or truly understood by people with 6-pack abs).  

It could be that next month I’ll have completed one-year of sobriety.  It could be any number of things indescribably joyous that seem to have little relation to anything but a feeling that life is grand and that things are funny again, not just these things, but gallows humor kinds of things… 

There are still many worries and concerns and things worth fighting for.. those efforts remain crucial this year more than ever…

But right now, nothing seems as lovely as watching Tina Fey impersonate Sarah Palin:
