You are a fountain of ceaseless positivity, Miss Els. [So speaks Johnny Carson. He mimes holding a microphone out for her, even if that's not quite the format of a late night talk show.] Just how does a gal like you keep it all so upbeat? Me and the boys are taking bets: is it a good Christian upbringing, or does it come in a blister pack at the corner pharmacy?

[Regardless.]

You and me both. I'm not half so wiped as I was last week but I'm still not up to my usual median. And that's discounting the mental blow.

Would you like a nightcap? Something to pave the road to slumberland?

Your impressions will never get old. I don't know how to be anything other than myself, but maybe I can try to bottle it up someday.

[ a joke. that's not something she should do, even if she could. ]

We could both use it.
