In Portland recently, I had a Royal Tanenbaum moment. You know, the Wes Anderson film?
Royal: "These past few weeks have been the best of my life."
Narrator: "Saying this, Royal realized it was the truth."
Or, words to that effect. Anyway, at the "Dinner with Peter" party, sold at the MSB auction, I was repeatedly asked how things were going in Palm Springs, how was Mary, etc., and found myself saying:
Peter: "These past few weeks Mary and I have been happier and more in love than we have since we first married."
And the narrator inside my own head: "Saying this, Peter realized it was the truth."
It's funny, isn't it? Some times you don't know what you are going to say until it comes out, and sometimes you don't realize the truth until you say it.
