Have you seen that episode of Friends where Rachel is in the process of moving, has boxes in her old apartment, boxes across the hall and boxes in Ross' apartment but no idea where she is going to move to? And she just wrings her hands and sits in the kitchen and calmly says "Wow...I could so easily freak out right now..."

Life is a little bit like that.

I'm getting married in a month and with that joy comes innumerable tiny and big details. For instance, nothing of Dan's lives here yet (save his gamecube and nintendo. Those OBVIOUSLY are here.) nor do I know when said belonings will travel over here. Regular programming begins at work. There are a hundred little crises at work as well. Plus personal discontent. Plus premarital counseling stuff to do. Plus I have no real food in the house. And money concerns. And and and -- see my point?

So, I resolve to focus on the upsides of things.
1. I am healthy. For the first time in months, I'm like 97% good health, 3% weird phlegm in the back of my throat when I talk after being quiet for awhile.
2. The weather has been fantastic! 50-60 degree days, chilly nights...perfect blanket cuddling and sleeping weather.
3. I see my mom in 2 weeks.
4. Even though work is difficult (but also rewarding) I had an excellent night on Wednesday, the SH girls group that I lead is so, so, so great. They had so many good questions. Fantastic.
5. I've had good music stuck in my head all day.
6. I think that I'm getting to a place in my life where, even if I still mentally jump to the worst possible conclusion, I don't stay there. I'm trusting myself to trust others better. That's a good thing.
7. I have TiVO!
8. I'm getting married in a month. :)

I think that's about as much as I can muster for tonight. I would like to put "well rested" on this list someday too. We shall see though.
