The Muna Effect

"Is today a bad day or just a less happy day?" --My baby brother. Good question huh? Sometimes we might feel less happy and misunderstand that to mean that we're not having a good day.

Perhaps it was the easy-to-read flow, perhaps it was the imagery of quick and dirty sex on a farm in the rain, or maybe it was just the fact that I had just had a 13 hour layover in Kuwait with absolutely nothing to do leaving my mental resources achingly ready to absorb the first available form of entertainment. ...
