T.G.I.F.

There are days when you just feel good and dammit, today is one of them. I just do. It probably stems from the wonderful evening I had with her yesterday and that feeling just carried over through the night and into this morning. And plus, it's a toasty 80-something degree day here in Connecticut and there are only a few clouds in the sky. And on top of that, it's Memorial Day weekend, the unofficial kickoff to the summer. I have no official plans like going to the beach or throwing a cookout, but the thought of just being able to relax without having to work on Monday, does my heart good.

So, on this Friday, I'm siced beyond belief. I'm in a good mood. The best way to describe this time of the year is in the above video of Will Smith's classic, Summertime. I just need a break from the norm. I'm thankful today is Friday and all though Fridays now pale in comparison to Fridays when I was younger, I still look forward to them with anticipation because you never know what the weekend will bring and I can't wait for this one to begin.


Other stuff...

- One of my friends from college recently broke up with her boyfriend. Like many, I thought they would be together forever, but everything happens for a reason. She was sharing with me how she wanted to rip up all the cards and stuff he had given to her over the time they were together and I quickly interjected and said no. I explained to her, that, just because you're not together anymore, doesn't erase those moments in which things were lovely and you two shared something special and you shouldn't forget that. Granted things have changed but don't let that make you forget about the good times you shared. I know from experience.

- Sometimes I feel unhip because I don't watch much television. I've very methodical and usually stick to a certain routine everyday. I usually just watch ESPN, CNN, Law and Order, the Jamie Foxx Show and sporting events. So, I'm completely lost when I here friends and coworkers talking about the Wire, the Sopranos and American Idol. I'm just not committed enough to have myself in front of the t.v. whenever they come on. Oh well.
