Feeling goofy

Fairy tales can come true, it can happen to you
If you’re young at heart
For it’s hard, you will find, to be narrow of mind
If you’re young at heart

You can go to extremes with impossible schemes
You can laugh when your dreams fall apart at the seams
And life gets more exciting with each passing day
And love is either in your heart or on its way
-- Frank Sinatra

Someone, for the love of Pete, tell me to stop being an idiot. I'm a jaded nearly middle aged lady (OK, 30) and to think otherwise can only lead to disappointment. RIGHT? That's what New York taught me, and I should listen to the city that knows the best. If it turns out New York is wrong, I'll let you know.
