Just a good day
Feb. 27th, 2004 01:06 pmI have no idea why, particularly, but I'm just absurdly cheerful and happy today. I'm smiling at people in the halls, humming The Heart of Summer and wishing I could get up to dance to it. It's just a day where I'm full of energy and good feeling and things just sort of click.
My life is good all around - maybe I don't appreciate that often enough. (It's been pointed out to me that most of my stories seem to be sad ones!) My blessings are many just now - sweeties who I dearly love and love me, many friends who are family to me, a job where I really feel I'm conquering the learning curve (and getting the best wage of my life for it), coworkers I enjoy (some of whom I'd even willing spend outside of work time with!), a nice place to live in an area I like, and less financial burden that I have EVER had since living on my own - I can even answer my own phone without fear of creditor attacks!
My health is good, my heart is happy and whole, my teeth are my own - what more could I ask for approaching 35?
Maybe the question ought to be why I don't walk around dancing to the music in my head more often. *G*
(And I am steadfastly refusing to even think about jinxing myself with this. :) )

Date: 2004-02-27 11:35 am (UTC)My name is Felicia and I live in the Portland, Oregon area. Writing is my dream, but in the meantime I have to find a more stable source of income (probably as a librarian or software tester). I hope we have a chance to chat time to time. I added you to my friends list when my friend Kate ran across your journal and actually thought it was mine! (hee!). I used to have bangs but I finally grew them out, and it was really hard because every once in a while I have this urge to go get them cut short.
What color are your eyes? Mine are blue. I'm 33...so I guess I can't be your *real* twin. Besides, I think you have nicer hair.
