Dispatches from the Co-Prosperity Sphere

You keep whinging because we don't call enough. For heaven's sake, stop! We can't call because we're busy. Just look at what we're doing. Does it look like we have the time to sleep? Eat? Breathe? Let alone communication with the outside world! We're building empires! We're winning hearts and minds! We're forging ahead, confronting our demons, marching victoriously toward a grand and glorious new era! And we're doing it all from the comfort of the backyard hammock.

*Whew*

You know, if you stand on the shore long enough, even if you curse the heavens and throw stones into the sea, sooner or later the wave will come.

Yesterday in the middle of working out, it came. All the bunchiness and anger and knitted eyebrows and frustration were washed away and I was left with an enormous gratitude that no matter what happens, I am alive and have my humanity. Everything else can be rebuilt from there.

And I'm havin' Tater Turds for dinner tonight. That makes me happy too!
