Shine on

April 25, 2010

Coughing, sneezing and feeling terrible.  We’ve all been there.  It seems like there is a cloud around me that just won’t cease.   My head cold happens to coincide with my house being painted.

A year ago while rushing to yoga a woman cut me off abruptly in her car and I honked in surprise. She returned my honk with a honk of her own and waved her middle finger at me. Being originally from Chicago where the middle finger is just another “3rd turn signal”, my reflexes immediately [...]
