here's how much i like my life right now. i woke up a little before the alarm today. this never happens. my body never decides, "I'm all done sleeping now," unless it's been sleeping for a whole lot of hours. 12, for example. but today i just woke up and felt strangely good for six thirty a.m. i went to a session with a kid, then i had a long break so i called my sister and went CD shopping. then my next session with a kid. then i came home to walk penny and get my laundry together. then (not surprisingly) i did laundry; this step means i did two productive things: laundry and reading. next i came home and found a delightful postcard from Julia on my door. love her. i made dinner and (gasp) actually put away all the clean laundry. i know! THEN i exercised. a lot. first i did my new samba DVD which is pretty fun as far as exercise goes, and then the bellydance DVD which is much less fun because it isn't dancing at all. those stupid twins duped me. they come out and dance around and get you all excited because you stupidly think youre on your way to learning how to do that and then you end up doing crunches and leg lifts and then they dance around some more, just to rub it in i guess. anyway so i did both workouts and then i called Julia and we decided to go for a walk. walks, where i come from, are not very exciting. but we walked from the berkeley rose garden to UC berkeley and back. it was beautiful. there are spots where you can see clear to the bay. we stood on campus by the big clock tower which i'm sure has a name other than "big clock tower" and looked out and saw the headlights creeping along the bridge. plus all the homes around that area are so pretty and all the plants are flowering and it was really quite nice and i'll shut up now.
so yeah. i feel good about today.
