Yeah, I am that happy.
Mother & baby brother are in town visiting me today and tomorrow... since I've been single Mom has this terrible fear that I couldn't possibly be TRULY happy, and that I was hiding my deep-seated misery in Macon. She was here for a grand total of one second and told me she could finally relax because she could see that yes, I was telling the truth in all of our phone conversations, and I am happy.
I'm not pouring my heart and energy into a hole anymore. Yeah, my classes are tough, but I'm not taking many. Yeah, work is tiring, but it's paying the bills. And yes, responsibilities keep piling up, but I asked for them, and that's just how life is. I'm having more fun now than ever, and I never want to sleep because for the first time in a long time I'm having a blast just being awake and enjoying myself and the people around me.
Today was great; I worked (but not really), skipped my SCI 105 class (I let myself miss that class and only that class once per month) which is the bane of my educational existence, had McAlister's with my wife, mom, and brothers, bought 2 pictures for my wall, had a 1 hour nap to make up for the complete lack of sleep last night (not that I'm doing much better tonight), wrote letters to support St. Jude's Children's Research Hospital, watched some TV with great friends and 2 new people from Bond (hooray Aussies), was generally spoiled, made the first Wal-mart run of the season (oil change supplies and snacks for the boys on the scaffold), gave a tour of the ghetto, came home, and have been shamelessly sweet-talked until now.
Yeah, I am that happy. :)
