Ridiculously Happy

I'm so happy... I can't explain exactly why, at the moment, I feel sheer ecstasy... but I do. I think its a combination of many things.... an AMAZING 80's part last night, an early rehearsal/practice session, a small nap, a clean room, a fabulous workout session, and an enjoyable evening with some amazing friends. Wow.

To begin. I have to share my extreme dislike for the current fashions... the 80's are back.. and its sad! Why don't we... as a generation.. look back at pictures from the 80's and remember how STUPID they all looked... rather than forgetting the horrors and attempting to bring them back. Oh.... My... Goodness. I bought my entire 80's party get-up at regular stores.... REGULAR STORES! This included a crazy tight black zip up pencil skirt, lace fingerless gloves, purple tights, fishnet tights, big plastic purple beads and earings, and a red bustier (ok.. I owned that.. but I did buy it in a regular store last year... for Carmen). holy... crap. I am NOT ok with fashion going this direction. However, I did have an extremely enjoyable evening looking ridiculous.



Something about having a clean room feels soooo refreshing... its a wonder I don't clean more often. I hadn't cleaned since... oh... well before Christmas (disgusting.. I know). but having my space dust free and straightened up feels really nice.

As happy as I am with my workout tonight.. tomorrow, my body will HATE me. I ran 2 miles, speed walked (sped walked?... hm..) a mile, then did a lap of lunges. I'm already a bit sore... I can't imagine what tomorrow will feel like.

By the way... I LOVE making time for silence every day. There is something so refreshing in it... why did it take so long for me to figure this out? AND I have a theory that it'll help my daily migraine problem. Constant noise (however beautiful the music) can't be good for migraines... hopefully I'll find a way to at least lessen the pain. Regardless, I think its good for my soul to have quiet. mmmm... I'm enjoying it right now :)


To reiterate.... I am content, joyful, and in love with life. Its funny... but a happy, romantic comedy, like the one I watched tonight with Kelly and Sarah usually makes me a bit more aware of my singleness... but I think the fact that I got to spend the time with the two of them, remembered that Kirsten is coming to visit soon (YAY!!), have a fun day planned with Miriam tomorrow, have been having some great God time, and am thoroughly enjoying my time with silence has all simply reminded me how Blessed I am. I drove home with an unexplainable smile on my face (ya... I'm a dork... but a happy dork).
Oh ya... and this makes me happy too... ^ yep... that's right.. its the cutest baby ever!
