'Cloudy skies will clear up....'
Those who know me know I am one of those annoying bouncy people who can't sit still and try to look on the good side of life. Yes, even we 'sunshine people' have bad days/moods. We are all human too. But, to my way of looking, life is too short to waste it whining. Or even sleeping.
Anyway. Yesterday was yet another gray,rainy day. I like rain. I like to walk in rain. SUMMER rain....when I don't have to be at work! But when you have to go to work...school...work...dance...work...school...LOL (you get it) and it's raining...and you live in NYC and take public transport...and it's raining...and the busses and trains are all full of wet people (cause it's raining) and 98 percent of those people are snarling...and 70 percent smell...because it's raining....then, yeah, the sunny people get a little 'clouded over'. (am I doing the weather metaphors too much here? You can tell me...! )
Anyway. 1st job at the station, I am pretty much by myself. I just had about two hours dance time alone at the studio....so I was pretty happy. I'm be-bopping around...singing one of the songs we take to comps. ('Halo/'Walking on Sunshine' mash) and just, you know....doing my thing. When Det.'Freakin too quiet for his build' Cop taps me on the shoulder and makes me jump at least twenty meters in the air. Then he informs me (as if I couldn't figure it out for myself) that it's dark and raining outside (guess that's why he is paid the big detective bucks...huh?!) and so shouldn't I be singing a 'rain song'? Well...you would think that I would take my clue and shut up. Right? Nah. I just back away (gotta keep a couple desks between you and the person you are going to antagonize when they are like 5 times bigger then you) and started to sing 'Grey skies are going to clear up...'(come on, sing with me...you know you want to) He just looked at me like I was from another planet...shook his head and went away. :::::makes an air point::::One for me!
So...every time someone made me want to growl yesterday...I would think of the look on his face, laugh and sing.
BTW...I love April. Two of my jobs I have FIVE paychecks and my other one and half...I get three! Yep...extra pay period this month. Half goes to savings. But HALF of that extra pay goes to ME. For FUN. I haven't decided what all...but some went for new clothes for spring/summer. I bought some new music too....
Don't you love extra money?
And now...I need to jump over to Sarah's place and see what she is up too. She lives up there where it snowed (actually, not sure if it snowed where she lived...but they say parts of Mass and NH got snow) and I know it rained...and she works with some jerks too. Poor Sarah.
Gotta go give her some sunshine. Then I have to get to class. My 5-7yo's and they are so much fun. I love my Saturday classes. The kids always make me laugh. Ever notice how few 'grumpy children' there are? They love and enjoy life....shake off bad and look for the rainbows and sunshine. I want to be like them!
{{{hugs}}} Have a wonderful day!!!
