So I was just sitting here on my bed, playing computer solitaire and half-watching "Full House" on Nick at Nite. It was one of those really corny ending scenes where Bob Saget gets all sappy and emotional.
He said, "Does life get any better than this?"
And I thought...actually, no. For me, life at this moment is almost perfect. I'm on a comfy bed, having fun watching TV and playing a game on the computer. I have a few school projects to do before the end of the week, but my schoolwork is basically under control. I'm going to see Brad in a couple of weeks. I put up Christmas lights in my living room and they're so pretty. I've done about half of my Christmas shopping already. My kitties are cute and fun. I have a girl coming to see the place Wednesday who is a VERY strong possibility for a roommate. My apartment is somewhat clean and organized. My laundry and dishes are done. I get to see my kiddos at school tomorrow. My cold is almost gone and I'm back to being quite healthy (not in shape, but no diseases or anything I am really worried about except weight). I made over $100 babysitting this weekend. My family is wicked cool. Kimmy is coming home again soon. I'm seeing Meddie and Ilene this week; I haven't seen either of them in months. I found out my friend Toni from high school just had a gorgeous little baby boy. And in July I will get a degree which will (I hope) permit me to get a job paying at least $45,000 a year, which might not sound like much to you but it's $15k more per year than I've ever made.
That's not to say that I don't have stress and things to take care of and problems. But overall, life is pretty damn great.
