  • Diligence is the mother of good luck.

    Today is one of those amazing days where I get the chance to see a lot of hard work finally pay off and I finally realize how completely fortunate I am. I'm so excited, I can barely sit here long enough to type, but I needed to tell someone this stuff and every other normal person is at work at 3:45 on a Thursday afternoon. So here's all the good stuff that happened to me today:

    1. I fixed my car by myself today. I couldn't even begin to tell you what I did, but I connected this thing to that thing and it worked. The "Crustang" lives!

    2. I bought a pair of size 3 jeans that actually fit. This hasn't happened in, oh, about 10 years. To be honest, I wasn't sure it would ever happen again. I'd like to thank my running shoes.

    3. The weather is even nicer than it was supposed to be. I actually opened a window today. What a novel concept!

    4. I finally got over my little bout with strep throat. I no longer feel like I'm constantly trying to swallow my tonsils and I can breathe through my nose again. In other news, I also don't sound like a 12 year old boy when I talk.

    5. AND ... I got accepted to my first choice graduate school! A year from now I probably won't think this is lucky, but hindsight is 20/20 and I'm just going to be happy for myself for the time being and NOT think about the next three years' worth of no sleep.

    OK, I'm off to make dinner...I'll come up with a better post soon. Hope everyone has an awesome day!

    It's great to have a good day. I love it when things all come together.  Hope it carries over into the night.
