Recuperation

If I got hit by a bus tomorrow and the previous blog was the last thing I ever posted, I'd be sorry. Therefore, I am going to blog about all the happy things from the last two weeks, because despite a bad day and a brief indulgence in my negativity, I am happy again and life is just damn amazing.

• I'm training for my first 5K and am doing really well, and even enjoying it.
• I finally saw the Harlem Globetrotters. Fun, but a little schticky - for the kids!
• I received the best compliment ever. Unfortunately, it's somewhat obscene, so I can't reproduce it here. But dang, it felt great to hear it!
• Scotch. And handsome green eyes to look into as I sipped it.
• I was a good friend to a drunk friend, knowing that she has never been and will never be that good of a friend to me. What can I say, I'm a giver.
• Easter and all the happy feelings of rebirth, innocence, and joy it brings.
• A much better Easter Sunday than last year - taller, more handsome, and definitely more sensitive. As the song goes: "He tastes like you, only sweeter . . . "
• OTB with Rowdy (see previous post from November).
• Cheese fries and half-price beers with my coworkers.
• Pittsburgh: shopping for Penguins and Steelers gear, Station Square, Mount Washington, and hometown bars.
• Seeing my beautiful sister - it had been way too long.
• Seeing my very best friend. Damn, I miss him.
• Mom's food.
• It's Cherry Blossom season in DC!
• Upcoming plans for the weekend involving a very special guest. :)

And so it goes. There are some clouds on the horizon but I am strong enough to get through the storm. My life is how I want it to be and nothing can stop the joy I feel about that. It is a wonderful, colorful, beautiful life and I wouldn't want it any other way.
