I've honestly never had that feeling either--before now. I typically get the slightest tingle of happy in my bones and I freak the fuck out and make up some sort of psuedo crisis. I go looking for drama. Drama is my cozy blanket and cup of coffee on a rainy day. So have I now grown up enough to embrace the delightfulness? Move over chaos! Stability is the new sherrif in town.
Granted, I get this sort of euphoria every Fall. The suburban, yoga-pant wearing, white girl in me can't help but squeal when pumpkin spice flavored scarves come back into fashion. October makes me giddy in the way that my two-year-old lights up when she sees...pretty much anything. She's typically the most genuinely happy kid on the planet. But you should have seen us at the county fair. I freakin' LOVE goats! I will talk to them for hours because they make the best sounds. It's simply another beautiful aspect of my Autumnal love of life. But this feels a little more substantial than a Fall tease.
For those of you following along at home, my cosmotology school tour went really well. I think I might actually do this! There's one catch...I'll have to put roller derby on the backburner for about a year. I can still be involved in the league, but practices aren't in the cards. I'll be too busy learning to do perms for old ladies and ombres for basic bitches. I have two weeks to decide, get my work on board with me going part-time, convincing my nanny and kids that this is going to be a similar schedule change, and work out my budget so that I can still feed my morning latte addiction.
And for those of you waiting for a date update, I never made it to Ikea. I was so excited to get to Modesto that I skipped the stop in Palo Alto and went straight over. I'm not going to divulge many details because there's a .0098% chance he's going to read this and then freak out that I want to turn us into a modern day Brady Bunch. But, we had the best time ever.com. That's an inside joke. We have those. Jealous? Also, our song is "Angry White Boy Polka" by Weird Al. Super Jealous? You know you are.
