The kind of day that you just want to walk away from work and find the right girl and kiss in the park while eating a sack lunch.
I know you know what I'm talking about.
That hope, that new life feeling.
That buzz of warmth and happiness. Winter is on it's way out, for me that means Autumn is just around the corner, but I'm content with knowing that Spring is coming. I loved today. I wish I could have shared it. As a matter of fact I went out of my way to invite sm to lunch just so I could have some company today. It wasn't the right girl, but he will do, even thinking about that brings a smile to my face today.
It wasn't just the weather. Yesterday was shit, just lots of stress and annoyance, and I don't even want to get into it. And I felt that work dread coming on this morning on my way to drop the kids off, and I literally just told myself, "Today, I'm going to just have a good day."
For once that self affirmation bullshit worked. I worked my ass off, people noticed, I talked with the right girl even though I couldn't have lunch and making out in the park with her. The Ordinary Boys, The Specials, The Aggrolites, and The Slakers reminded me that music and love go hand in hand. And that the sun warming my face can still remind me that I'm alive, and that creativity is a must for me.
So I come back again to this little corner, this hidden spot where I know the people I love are going to read, and I tell them. Hey. It's been a while. The big project is coming along (ten days till some of you are hounding me to read it). I'm surviving in spite of what I may tell you sometimes. Today was a really good day.
Yesterday seemed hopeless. For reals hopeless. So hopeless I didn't tell anyone.
But today.
Today was a really good day.
Tomorrow I will have a really good day.
File under Virtue.
