First of all, I'm very excited about Obama. It was so nice to watch the country be so happy and hopeful about the future. I hope the feeling lasts.
It's been 14 years since I've lived in Nashville during the Fall. I'd forgotten how pretty it is. The weather is perfect and the leaves are all changing. It was probably the same with the leaves in New York, but I didn't have the time to wander around Central Park every day to watch.
I've been coming down with something for a few weeks and I finally admitted that I need to go to the doctor today. For the time being, the less I move the better so I'm typing and watching tv. It's been so long since I've watched tv that I almost don't remember how to just sit and do it without doing anything else. Thank goodness for the Internet and stupid shows that don't require much brain power, like MTV's "Made."
My favorite thing to do when I'm watching "Made" is to think about what I would be made
into. I think trapeze artist. Or maybe a surfer because I'm scared to death of being in the middle of a wavy ocean alone. I used to love watching Lori and Evan surf in the Sound, but the thought of doing it myself gave me the chills. I tried to go in once and the waves knocked me down before I ever got knee-deep. I'd have a long way to go before I became a surfer. But if I wanted to, I bet I could. You could all start calling me Gidget.
