Happiness is....

1. New books in collection
2. New books in collection to some day read
3. New music to which I can listen
4. Christmas presents bought
5. Time spent with family (immediate and beloved aunt and cousins)
6. 1950s Ben Hur film to see
7. Brother home.
8. See above.
9. Serenading brother with the revised version of "Hello Dolly" theme song. You know how it goes... well hello, brother! It's great to see you back where you belong. Well hello, brother! You're looking swell, brother.... here's your hat, brother, you're staying where you're at, brother. Brother's never gonna go away again!

I say, that's about a good an adaptation of a song as "On the Street Where I Live". ;-)
