No matter how much time one spends pondering the big questions like the meaning of life and "whither the Cubs?", these concerns pale beside the question "is this a cold or is this cedar fever?". I think that the sneeze is decidedly under-rated as a life experience, but, sadly, it is not as tidy an experience as I would prefer.

I'm surfing last.fm (here Van Cliburn, there Digable Planets) and hoping that a Saturday of rest will make me sneeze-free. Good things are best in small packages.
