some folks drive the bears out of the wilderness, some to see a bear would pay a fee -
but me, i just bear up to my bewildered best, and some folks even see the bear in me

energy begets energy?

Long time no type!

Anyway, i'm pretty freakin' happy lately. For the past week or so i've just been peppy and dance-y and energetic all around. There are multiple causes, i think:

-- its finally warming up a bit in seattle which is nice. makes for an overall improved disposition in everybody.

-- I had a good movie weekend (6 movies last weekend) and that always boosts my spirits a bit.

-- my turning into a 13-year-old girl who is love with zac efron (seriously, how can you not be?) means i've been listening to musicals (of the high school variety - arguably bad, but still damn catchy!)

-- energy shots! like the 5-hr energy stuff? but not. other brands. its just a nice kick in the pants when i'm at work in the morning.

-- remember all those musical numbers i've been listening to? that means i've been dancing ALL THE TIME with my headphones on, often without self-conciousness (even at the office) as a result of the energy shots!

-- then i've also got my Improv Acting class on Mondays, which is super fun usually. I've decided i really do need to act or dance or something. because i'm insanely happy when i do.

OUTDOORS:
-- yesterday, heidi and i found an abandoned playground like 5 blocks from our house*. Its fabulously secluded (read: riley danced around with headphones on like an idiot in the middle of a field for an hour and a half) and it has a REALLY cool jungle gym thing with a slidey arm thing that i don't know how to describe.
*there was also a run-in with an amazing bulldog named Deuce during this outing. if i ever get a dog, i am so getting a bulldog. they are like running barrels of hilarity. seriously. so good.

-- today, we were going to go canoeing, but when we got there they weren't renting canoes as it was the first day of boat season and so it was too crowded. instead, we walked for a bit and found a tree to climb. we made it up. and then i tried to kick the tree's ass. but it kicked mine instead**:

THE KICKER:
The Egyptian Theater is showing Terminator (the first) tonight at midnight. Seriously. I've never seen it on the big screen. The universe loves me lately. And i love it back.

My life is really pleasantly full at the moment. My life is really pleasant at the moment. :) I feel like there are even more things i was going to talk about, but i've forgotten about them! Shame!
I hope everybody else out there is in a similarly good mood.


**Dude. i SO love having wounds. i like blood. i kind of bruised my hand under the cuts, so its like raised injuries... and yeah. they're just awesome. i feel like i've accomplished something when i have nature-fight injuries.
