After endless fluctuations between a drizzly-sticky kind of humid, lukewarm half-rain and torrential flash-flooding thunderstorms (welcome to the sharp line between summer and autumn in the South), for the past two days the weather has been not quite too dry, not quite too cool and not quite too bright. In other words, perfect. And I've had energy, and no flu, and no throat infections, and I've woken up when I've wanted to, and in this cool dry weather my hair is looking like a freaking Herbal Essences commercial.
I'm completely overloaded with work and my "breaks" are spent doing my least difficult homework or reading articles for my research projects. But. The weather is gorgeous and my window is open. At sunset I have a beautiful view of treetops and roofs across town catching the light. I have a shiny new laptop that I still haven't gotten over my warmfuzzy love for. My voice is finally back from its various infection vacations and I can sing again. I'm feeling a new appreciation for the nuances of some of my old favorites and discovering new songs to love. It's almost time for Flashforward, Supernatural and Project Runway. I'm re-reading Watership Down. The cafeteria had delicious food for a change tonight, although it might just have been because I was hungry.
Sometimes life is pretty much awesome, you know?
