i'm insanely happy right now. and i'm genuinely excited about things (which a while back, i was worried about when i realized i couldn't get excited over anything). i'm ready to go back to school. i'm ready to see everyone. i'm so excited to go to clemson in september then come back home and see the spirit singers at the opera house. i'm excited that tomorrow's my last day of work (though, not too excited if i end up working the party upstairs).
i'm really excited that there's a song called "catherine the waitress." i'm excited that it's now on my ipod. so what if they spelled the name differently? how many people can say their name and job are both in the title of a song? i'm guessing not many.
all i know is, that i'm really happy to be me right now. i could get used to this feeling.
EDIT: I found the poem "Ithaka" my Human Experience professor handed out to us on the last day of classes for last fall. basically, it reminds us to look forward to things in the future, but not to live exclusively in the future because the future never comes. if you keep saying "i'll be happier when i'm __(fill in the blank)__" you'll never actually get to the being happy part. this, among many others, is a line i'm learning to walk.
i feel very zen in that i'm all about balance right now.
