Head Soup

I've sat here for an hour trying to think of something to say. But the contents of my head just slosh around, without anything of substance bobbing to the surface. I feel happy and stupid. I wonder if this is what a worm feels like. If you Google it, the majority of people think humans are the stupidest animals on the planet. But if that's true, can we trust the judgement of the STUPIDEST animals on the planet? Maybe the people who are voting don't count themselves. They're probably the ones who voted humans as the smartest animals on the planet, too. How can we be both?! I'm so confused.

We should ask the worms what they think.

I can't put a finger on my happiness. It jumps around, making it impossible to trace where it came from. Maybe I'm happy because it's Friday, or because I've started exercising at lunch. I've been eating better too. Well, when I'm not binging on free cake. Hoop and I have had some really nice evenings at home playing with the Wii, cooking dinner together, and watching the fourth season of The Office. Maybe I'm happy because I realized today that it's been 1 year since I quit smoking. A YEAR! I decided to celebrate the milestone by purchasing a set of really expensive/frivolous tickets to Halloween Horror Nights.

Have I mentioned that I've been saving my money up for a wedding? Yeah, those things are pretty expensive. Who knew? Now I've gone and dipped into the kitty. But it's justified, right? After all, I've saved $1,387.17 by not smoking, AND going to Halloween Horror Nights has become somewhat of a tradition. It's where Hoop proposed to me last year. Also, the theme this year is twisted fairy tales. I get antsy just thinking about it! Maybe there are a few reasons I'm happy today and not just one. Whatever it is, I hope it stays. I could use a little stretch of happiness and good will.

So tell me, what do you have to be happy about today?

Have a great weekend Homebloys!
