Life is good :)
I need to say that so that I can put things in perspective. Some times, not all of the time but some times it is necessary. Today I found myself thinking about a very nasty woman from my near past and I decided I need to focus on something better. What's better in my present and my nearer past? Where to begin!?
Last Friday I received an email that changed my whole weekend! I won tickets to the taping of an Austin City Limits show, the artist Juanes! OK, so I'm not a huge fan of his but the show was quite good. I got to see a really good friend of mine and she accompanied me to the concert. Much love for her :) Thus I worked through the weekend, had a lab meeting on Monday, and jumped in my car and drove 6 hrs to San Antonio! The concert was on Tuesday night and I drove back on Wednesday. It may seem silly to drive 6 hours for an artist who I like but would not actually spend my own money on a ticket to see. However, I am a huge fan of the Austin City Limits Music Festival and Live Tapings, how could I pass up the opportunity? Also there are moments in life when steady and solid are really important adjectives. Then there are moments in life that need to be described by free and wild. Although not a "wild" moment, the chance to just take off and do something like this made me feel free. I have to say that it was exciting and it made me quite happy! While there I got to listen to local stations that play way better music than what we have in LBB. This is the Kopecky Family Band with Heartbeat, I really like this song :)
When you have moments when you're weighed down by the nasty people from your past or your own nasty behavior - hey it happens we've all been there - those free and wild moments make you feel slightly better. It's the silver lining to your bad day, even though I'm not going to hold on to that moment as the gold standard it brings a smile to my face. The drive down there was beautiful, rain in TX equals green every where. The weather was great. I spent time with one of my fave people. If the last thing I do in life is spend time with a great friend/family member, listening to good music, and having fun - I can say I would die happy.
Work is going quite well and there are lots of things to just be glad for, the dog is alive, the plants are surviving, the ac works, the toilets flush, the wind on Wednesday night didn't blow down my house. Oh yeah, we had really bad weather on Wednesday night. Check it out below:
Yes, life is good. Hope your's has flushing toilets and still standing houses and music - smile :)
