I have a biking-related post that you might find interesting: http://cruiser.livejournal.com/138931.html - but really, your post reminded me that I haven't posted much lately either, so if you look at my feed, it will take you six minutes to can read everything I've thought to post about since the last time I posted (and you might enjoy my single posts from October and November in addition to the post from September that I linked to).
On the subject of happy tears, my thought on it is related to your comment about change. But I think for me it's not so much that every change has a bit of loss in it as much as it is that for the big happy moments with my kids, there's a bit of "this is the last time this happy thing is going to happen" - the school my kids are in only goes to third grade, so every time she does something that's an annual event at her school, it's the last time she gets to do it. So I can be happy about her carrying the third grade banner at Christmas Chapel, but also realize that it's her last Christmas Chapel.
