THERE IS NO HAPPINESS LIKE MINE

Out on the balcony a couple dozen floors above 3rd street -- sunset time -- drinking something with dry vermouth and something else -- over-looking downtown Austin -- swinging on a pleasantly unusual chair-hybrid-hammock type thing -- feeling the breeze that makes it seems about 10 degrees cooler than the 80 degrees showing on the Amtrak thermometer --
There is no happiness like mine -- I've never experienced satisfaction like THIS satisfaction -- and, surprisingly, it doesn't have much to do with the idyllic setting --
It comes from a computer "beep-cling" -- notifying me that I've just finished downloading all 249 episodes of The Love Boat.
