a good day

But life is foul

and you don't get a free throw.

And so my next move

is gon' have to be my best move.

Literally, it's Cole World all day.  J. Cole comes high(ly) recommended.  Ahh, so nice to see a rapper with a... brain!

And on that note, today was such a good day.  Have you ever just spent hours just talking to someone?  No objectives, no hidden intentions - just good conversation.  Wow, that feels nice.  Then again, I was a bit distracted by the lips.. But what can ya do?!

I think this vacation hasn't been what I wanted (except for today), but what I needed.  I slept a lot, thought a lot, and talked to people about things I've been needing to discuss.  And yes, in a way, the Wiz Khalifa concert was also necessary.  It taught me to just start saying how I feel and not feeling bad about it.

Actually, I think I needed today too.  I have to start being mature and not making things bigger than they are.  That also means facing your fears or your qualms against yourself.  I did that today, finally talking to someone who has had me tongue-tied for three years.  Turns out we have a lot in common, and it's nice to be able to talk to someone intelligent.  I think intelligence is pretty sexy.  So because of that, I'm still smiling since like eleven AM.  I think it's funny how certain people just have that effect on you.  And you can't do nothing about, well, except sit back and enjoy it.  I intend to continue that, because I kind of like where this is going.  No, that's a lie.  I really like where this is going.

Wisdom teeth removal tomorrow.  I'm excited to get rid of this annoying pressure in my jaw and replace it with Vicodin and Percocet.  Laugh now, fly later!
