Why this is already a good day even though I have not yet left the house: 1. I�ve started a wonderful new book (Alice Munro: Runaway) 2. Tom Waits� �Big in Japan� is playing on iTunes. 3. XTC has finally shown up on iTunes, thus enabling me to reach music nostalgia nirvana. As soon as I�m done downloading. 4. For the first time in at least three weeks, I do not, at this moment, have a sinus headache. 5. Last night I dreamed I was in Paris. However, I still had my usual dream-travel angst about the fact that my passport is expired (the honest to God truth � I really need to renew it, if only so I can sleep better). 6. AJ and his dad are upstairs leaving me with some blissful peace and quiet. 7. There is a pile of leftover tofu Pad Thai in the refrigerator for lunch. 8. There are no bills to pay today. 9. I�ve written a plausible and not totally sleep-inducing introduction to my conference paper. In the process, I�ve realized that I can pretty much write this paper off the top of my head. 10. The house is clean.
