Fabulous - that's how I feel at the moment, along with some strange giddiness that'd probably scared most of the people who walked past me just then. But I think it's hard to contain happiness - especially those that just suddenly burst into live inside you, and also, why should I contain it within myself when I can share it with the world.
My sense of upbeat-ness may come from:
1) I've paid the bills - because it's been hanging in my room and no one else in the house at the moment cares enough to get it done. So I've done it - and now i can make them pay me back w/ gratitude because I kept the house's gas and electricity coming and money.
2) I've come to terms with British rain and weather forecast. When forecast says 'Sunny', expect lots of rain...with the sun. The secret is to never go anywhere without an umbrella - that's just asking for it. Good umbrellas are a mode of self-defense against weather, drunkards (which I fortunately haven't had the need to test this one out yet) and losing oneself in a crowd.
3) I went to the library. I think there's nothing quite as satisfying as finding something in the library. My catches for today are: Coffee and bites, Just for one and A burnt-out Case.
4) I had Cream Tea and nothing makes me happier than cream tea with my books and space to think about...well...anything! I'm under the suspicion that they might have spiked my tea, but aw well~ A good cup of tea has its magic.
5) My housemates would be out of my hair in a couple of days so I'll have the house to myself - not that I hate any of my housemates but singing, even if they had great voices, are a complete no-no when you just want the sound of quietness. I've not said anything which is partly my fault - but they don't sing at inappropriate time so saying anything which just seem petty and unfriendly.
6) I'm single. I will most likely moan about it another day. But today, being single is like having the world at my disposal. I take care of myself. I don't have to worry about anyone but myself (and family of course!). I can smile at whoever I want to, glare at whoever I want to. And I don't have to be pretty or feel pretty for anyone but myself.
7) I'm a girl. This is the age of Woman. Bow to my greatness!
'Nuff said.
Later, people! *bounces off*
