Oh Joy is Me!

After reading in the Times this morning that optimists live longer, I’ve been fighting my pessimistic instincts. (That’s all I need. Having to worry about worrying.) The rain doesn’t help, nor did Gramps in the Camry, giving me the finger for making a perfectly reasonable turn onto my street. And it’s a very bad hair day (see rain). On the bright side, my team, the San Francisco Giants just made it one step closer to the World Series. Sorry, Phillies fans, if your glass feels half empty.
