Speaking of which, a classic baseball quote: ""What pressure?" Myers said. "No, not anymore. I probably used to [feel it], but not anymore. I just try to relax. Whatever's going to happen is going to happen. I just try to make pitches when I have to make pitches."
Study Buddhism. Be a baseball player.

Is it wrong that whenever I see a shot of Sarah Palin, the song Smiling Faces comes to mind?

Which is all well and good when you are (a) indoors or (b) in a taxi (except when the taxi starts to float), but not so good when you are (c) obliged to walk.

Seriously. At first I was squeaking with distress as my shoes filled with water when I stepped in an inch or two of puddle. A little later, as we were fording our way down the middle of the road almost knee-deep and my shoes were in danger of floating away, and I was alternating between howls of laughter and threatening assertions that the goddamn restaurant BETTER BE REALLY GOOD INDEED, I had a slightly better sense of perspective on those puddles. I was also trying really hard NOT to think about my coworker getting one of the thumb-sized cockroaches
up his trousers
when he did the same thing last year. It didn't occur to me to worry about snakes, though - which my friend, in her lovely high heels, was more than half expecting to stumble across.
Particularly impressive, back when we were trying to avoid walking calf-deep through the water, was the point at which all four of us (dressed up to the nines) flung umberellas over a fence and scrabbled over it, only to realise a few paces later that we were still going to have to plunge back into the water once we got to the end of this brief island of comparative dryness.
I can't remember laughing harder for Quite. Some. Time.
(By the time we left the restaurant, several hours later, the street was bone dry. Business as usual.)
