I'm reading this like one of those time lapse videos of a photo a day taken over months, the way my eyebrows and mouth keep twitching between emotions, from mischevious grin to explosive laughter to a tender pout to motherly heartache eyebrows back to a Cheshire grin. Such a beautiful piece of writing, it puckered up my heart like a half loop stitch on china silk.

This made me laugh and cry and laugh and cry. And feel better about all us silly consumers ... and all things Americana. And, of course, now I have to listen to that song.
