Things seem to be looking up lately. I’m not going to question why or how, but I am going to enjoy it while I can. So what’s been going on?
1- VEGAS, baby! One of the friends I have known the longest in my life is getting married in Las Vegas (he lives there, so it’s not as cheesy as it sounds) next weekend. I was scrimping and saving, but I wasn’t sure I’d be able to make it. Then an amazing friend loaned me her airline voucher, and I’m going to be there.
2- Cuddles. I’m getting semi-regular cuddles. This always makes me happy.
3- Red Dress. Because of the Vegas trip, I wanted to get a cute dress. I managed to find one in the first store I went into, that actually fit, and was on a serious sale. Score!
4- Poetry Slam. I managed to not only make it to the second round last night at the first Spokane Poetry Slam of the season, and I didn’t get last!
5- House. The house, after a rocky emotional month, has some of the best karma I’ve lived around since leaving home. We’re all getting along well, it’s an incredibly creative place, and there is lots of laughing. Sure, there’s still work to be done, but it’s just a positive vibe.
6- Photography. I got to go out on a photo shoot for work. I didn’t get to take photos, but I got to be near a photo shoot, and I realized how truly happy it makes me. So I’m actually taking steps to put together my home studio I’ve been dreaming about.
7- Friends. Things are going well for the friends and family around me. For some reason, it’s just aligning that the things that make them happy or things that are good are happening to them as well. More than anything, this makes me truly happy – to see those around me having a positive time.
