…I’m grateful for:
1. 6/8 time signatures. I’ve long been a fan, and many of my favourite songs have this feel to them. I think it all started with Pearl Jam’s Elderly Woman Behind a Counter in a Small Town.
2. Viognier. Not only is it delicious, it’s also a name you can say to make you sound like you know stuff about wine – unless, that is, you frequently confuse it with other wines that start with ‘v’.
3. The antonyms ‘dearth’ and ‘plethora’. They sound like a pair of characters from mythology. Hell, for all I know, they are.
