  The best day so far: 2007
I don't know what happened in your neck of the woods tonight. But in my city, it finally snowed...and stuck! It was so amazing! Watching the snow fall and blanket the ground. We had a meeting to discuss WestSide Arts up at the Armory. Beforehand Kristin and I grabbed some lukewarm stew at Geoff's. Kristin said she preferred when she woke up from a long night's sleep to snow covering the world, but I don't know. I kind of enjoy watching the act itself.

I'm very happy tonight. We live in a beautiful world. It's not just the snow making me say that, but it certainly caps off an otherwise remarkable day. Do you ever have those moments where you just take a step back and look around you, at the beauty of life in your immedate surroundings? When I do that, I usually just start laughing out loud for joy. It happened tonight for the first time this year. Let's say it was around 6:30 pm. I was sitting in my car looking up towards the lights of the houses on College Hill, the snow gently beginning to fall and stick to the ground, Cat Power on the radio. Yeah, man. For the first time this year.
