I've decided not to be grumpy anymore today.
I met a 9-year-old boy today who has a incurable, neurodegenerative disorder and unless a cure is found, he likely won't live through his teens. Yet despite the odds against him, he's the most adorable, energetic little boy and he just made me smile talking to him. He's the batboy for a local baseball team and the guys are all fiercely protective of him. He's being honored by them this Friday, so I'm writing a story. And suddenly, my petty little problems don't seem so big anymore.
