If I were an inanimate object, I realized today exactly what I'd want to be.
One of those big round shiny balls that you buy in WalMart for $2.50. The brightly colored marbl-ey kind. The kind that makes a loud noise when you bounce it, and the slightest force produces in it an enormous, enthusiastic bounce. Those things are full of joy and life. They are fun, almost irresistable to play with. They are simple, but inviting. They are at home on a concrete slab and also in a grassy backyard. Little kids like them, but grown ups do too. They get along with all kinds of people. They bring a good time to an ordinary day.
Yup... that's what I'd wanna be.

We had a silver one once that blew away in a windstorm. I miss it, but I'll bet it's happy.
