Hm. I had a delicious lunch just now. Sorting through email and doing some reading for a speech I have to write. Sitting in a lovely little cafe eating a lovely little pastry and looking forward to flying home tomorrow to the husband (who usually nixes pastries) and the kid (who doesn't think twice about demolishing pastries). So, yeah, I'm happy. I'll be happier when they sort out the Obamacare website issues and happiest when we come to our senses and enact a single payer health care system—the same kind of health care system those socialists have over in Israel and Vatican City. But I'm certainly happy enough at the moment for all practical purposes.

Thanks for asking, bumper sticker on the handrail of a bridge over the Chicago River!
