Happenings today
I need to write this down because really truly good days happen so infrequently for me and I need to write with gratitude when they happen so I don't forget. Good memories have to be remembered.
I got laid last night. Wonderful, mind-blowing sex the likes of which I hadn't had in... well, a while. I got some, and I felt good falling to sleep at about midnight.
I don't know if it was the sleep or the sex but I woke up in a good mood. I was tired and tempted to skip Jazzercise but I didn't. I grabbed a fruit and yogurt parfait for breakfast and I went to Jazzercise. I got some great exercise, complete with raised heart rate and sweat, and then went home and showered. I played on the net for a bit and then took my son to get registered for college, which he did successfully.
While he was doing that, I had to run home and let my husband into the house we'd locked him out of when we left. Then I went to my favorite nearby Korean/Japanese restaurant and bought a bento box to go. I ate just under half the bulgogi and rice, two pieces of tempura vegetables, two california rolls and took the rest of my lunch to Travis (who was registering for college). I was in a hurry to get to the school and tutor a student and I was running a little late. As it happens, she left before I got there, so I played on the computer for a few hours and texted some friends and then left to get Tony an hour early from work. He was tired enough to take off, so we went to Jason's deli and I had a beefeater sandwich (Jason's deli's version of a French dip au jus) which I ate half of and it tasted fabulous!
I was dancing to Indigo Girls' "Closer to Fine" all around the deli to the amused smiles of many people. (In retrospect I probably looked idiotically retarded, and the people were probably feeling sorry for the special girl, but I felt so good, I couldn't keep it in.)
After dinner we went to see the movie "The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel." It was funny and touching and surprising. The actors were amazing. We had Professor McGonagal from the Harry Potter movies, and also Judi Dench, who's been in everything including a ton of Bond movies. Slumdog millionaire was in it (who was also in the first and second seasons of Skins) and also the washed-up singer from Love, Actually. The movie was perfect.
Came home and gave Ken my other half sandwich and wrote this post. I'm going to eat cocoa pebbles and get more sleep. <3
Update: We were out of cocoa pebbles. I won't let this ruin my happy mood.
