I feel the answer to approaching adulthood gracefully is to chronicle your life in Stuart McLean vignettes. Spoken like Bach. Rubato. Cadential. Lovingly. With humor. Because you will notice, you see, that job burnout, the belly fat, and the dent in your bike are all crispy slices of burnt toast on the warm Christmas radio sound of Saturday morning CBC. They don't matter. And that's exactly what makes these stories beautiful.
