This is a brief tribute to the world of hill rolling and dizziness:
The other day Charissa and I rolled down a small grassy knoll and it opened a door in me that's been locked for years. When I was a kid I would always play games conducive to spinning, hence creating the "dizzy effect." It was fantastic: hill rolling, repeated circle spinning, running in tight circles, shutting your eyes and circular dancing (sense a circle theme). The best part was the aftermath: getting up to find that you can't help but fall back down. Who knew that the dizzy, dancing feeling that adults get from falling in love or too much caffeine (or, er -- alcohol) could be created with a simple succession of spins.
Try being a kid again, it's great fun.
