I'm 41 years old and I learn something new everyday. I was sitting here
feeling glum, watching the news and feeling sorry for myself because I have
planned for nearly a year to attend Clownfest this week... in New Jersey (of
course it was cancelled).  Once again Uncle Curt has made me give my head a
shake and get my brain into a better place. I'm heading off to the blood
donor clinic and I'm taking my balloons.
