I had a low key interesting day. I got up rather early, well I guess 8:30am isn't really all that early but it was a lot sooner than I expected to get up. I did errands, which I really had had no intention of doing, then I came home. I hung up some lights, had lunch with Jaime, saw Whitney, and then thought that I would spend the rest of the day watching tv and wishing I wasn't so lazy. I didn't though, for the first time in a very long time I just decided to get out of the house, it was like I just didn't want today to be like everyother day. I went to Walmart to get different lights, then I went to the movies and saw the Chronicles of Narnia, it was pretty good. What amazed me most was that even when I had someone to go with me pretty much whenever I didn't go anywhere, then today I just went. I'd never been to the movies alone before, but I didn't feel weird at all. Then I went to the book store and bought some books.
I was talking to someone the other day about the Great Gatsby, I told him he should read it, then decided I might like to read it again myself. I also managed to buy three other books, who knows how long it will take me to read any of them. I think that the Great Gatsby is a terrific story, it's one of my favorites, but I have to admit the reading gets a bit tiring. It's not boring, but the wording, the illusions the whole thing is tiring to me, more so than I remember it being, but perhaps that because the last time I read it I hadn't been out of school for almost two years and having my intellect sucked from me at walmart those two years. Anyway if you haven't read it you should, you might find yourself feeling a bit sophisicated.
For one reason or another I feel very good today, I feel happy, and content, and well I don't know, I feel something else but I don't know what it is. It's not like everything is going my way, it's more like I don't care that it isn't because it's not such a big deal, it's ok that it's not 100% going my way. Problems are what they are we all have them.
Well off to do more reading...
