I needed to relax. There was too much pre-Thanksgiving cleanup going on at home; I was about to attend a birthday party with 15 preschoolers dancing to hula music; and my hapless Broncos were losing to the even more hapless Raiders.

Didn’t work right away, but eventually … I found myself … lolling … on the couch … totally cooled out ………………. (distant voices: “Scott, we could use a little help cleaning”) … not … gonna … happen ………………………………… contented sigh: ahhhhhhhhhhhh ……………………………… hula music: more tolerable than I’d have guessed …………………………………………. I’ll need a can of this for every Broncos game …
