Soooooo......

I'm in a very cozy coffee shop at the moment, feverishly working on Food and Wine copy. A few minutes ago, Iz Kamakawiwo'ole's well-known version of "Over the Rainbow" came on and I just spontaneously started tearing up. I've heard it many times and enjoyed it, but it never did such a number on me before. I know I'm a little stressed, but that was a total out of left field emotional whomp. Noting it in passing here, just because. Back to writing endless promotional copy before the Friday deadline.

Added a couple minutes later: Now it's Gorillaz. No particular response. Time to go home and take a nap!

That's ok, Iz's version is my fave as well. I don't really like that song unless it is his version.

Oh, and welcome back to reality, Alex!
