I'd Rather Be Kayaking
Last month I took a few days to go to the Cape. Being out on the water sure beat the hell out of sitting in my former cube. When I got back, several people commented that unemployment looks good on me - I had gotten lots of sun and ocean air.
The house belongs to a friend of my family. When my parents moved into the neighborhood in which I grew up, my sister was four years old. One of the neighbors down the street got wind of their arrival (this was 6 years before I was born), and marched up to my parents' house, introduced herself and her child in tow, and said, "I hear you have a 4-year old. Perhaps your 4-year-old and my 4-year-old can be friends." And so they were. And so they still are, almost 50 years later (47 in fact, but "almost 50" sounds more dramatic).
