"At leve er ikke nok. Solskin, frihed og en lille blomst må man ha'." (Just living is not enough. One must have sunshine, freedom, and a little flower.) -- HC Andersen
It's 11pm, and I was just outside, hanging up laundry. It's 73F delightful degrees (23C), and it's not until I talk to other people elsewhere in the world that I suddenly remember that January is cold in other places.
I'm not stupid, really. I just.... ok, I'm dumb.
I was thinking about getting away for the weekend, since Monday is a holiday for both Malena and I. I would love to go somewhere a little off the beaten path, maybe somewhere in the Keys, or Amelia Island, or up in Georgia, around Jekyll Island, or the mountains.Then I talked to Kara in Atlanta, who made an offhand comment about the Georgia temperature being somewhere around freezing, and I quickly decided to spend the weekend right here at home. The satellite TV is paid for, the ocean breezes are warm and caressing, and I don't have to drive anywhere.
Ta-da.
