Wasting my time, in the waiting line..

Do you ever just have one of those moments that feels just a little too good to be real, so you don't even really want to tell anyone about it because you don't want to "jinx" it?  I'm kind of having one of those right now.  Things seem to be going pretty great in just about every aspect of my life right now, and that so very rarely happens, I don't really know what to do with myself and I feel like I should be holding my mouth a certain way just for good luck, so that things don't start to fall apart.  Or maybe, just maybe, I should look at it as maybe I'm not lucky, just blessed. :)

I took some time drawing tonight, which I literally have not done in years, but I found some old charcoal in a drawer and decided to draw myself.  I believe it turned out quite well, because you can definitely tell that it is me.

So, I've totally had the movie "Garden State" on the brain since Saturday.  So much, that I found it in my stash of movies.  I spent most of the weekend in Springfield with Emily, Josh, and several others on Saturday evening.  On Friday, though, I went to the mall by myself and wandered into a small store called Maceo's.  I absolutely LOVED some of the stuff in it, and the girl working there began making conversation with me.  Now, usually, when I'm in a store, I just want the salespeople to leave me alone so I can get what I need and get out, but something about this girl was different. She just seemed sweet and genuine.  She also did not seem from face value like someone that I would enjoy talking with or that I would have anything in common with, but she and I ended up talking for probably about 20 minutes.  Her name was Sarah and she just really made my day.  It was a lessen to me not to judge a book by its cover and also one of those moments where you are confirmed that there are still real, genuine people in the world.  The soundtrack from "Garden State" was also playing while I was in there, so that is what got me thinking about it.  She mentioned another movie that I need to see, "Away We Go" and it is now next in line on my Netflix queue.  I think I'll like it, though.  Anyway, if you're in Springfield, you should definitely check out the store and if Sarah is working (tall, pretty girl with dark, dark hair) spend some time talking with her.  I think you'll enjoy it. :)

This week is going pretty amazingly...I hope it just stays that way...

Yours,
