I don't think the happiest time of my life has happened yet. Generally speaking, I'm a pretty happy & content person, but I can't think of anything that's made me over the moon ecstatic. Being gifted with a baby goat might do that, but I'm unsure.

My son looked directly at me like "what's up!"and proceeded to look around  the room like where the hell am I. It reminded me of the Kurt Vonnegut book immediately. "To the as-yet unborn, to all Innocent wisps of undifferentiated nothingness: watch out for life. I have come down with life. I was a wisp of undifferentiated nothingness and then a little peephole opened quite suddenly." It was a bit surreal and probably best day of my life, at least top five.

Exactly. That's what I called him today when I went to the house that I rent him and found a bunch of cigarette butts in the flower bed I just planted. Wtf kind of inconsiderate bullshit is that, I'd like to smack him in the face sometimes.

The mosquito light was on and I had a yellow light bulb in the porch. We had just had supper a BBQ or something and there we were dancing to the oldies my son was about 6 my Daughter was 11 and there we were dancing in the moonlight. We must have danced like a bunch of epileptic nutcases out there. Dancing in the moonlight came on and there we were dancing baresfoot in the back yard.

I think about that from time to time and realize it was a defining moment in my existence. at the time it didn't really affect me but when I think back it was the greatest thing in the world. An hour of happiness that became a lifetime of memories for me.

I don't know why I am thinking about it now, maybe the cold air, maybe the wind. But it may never happen again. And that is a bother. I really don't even think they remember that but I do and I smile.

Any happy memories?
