Perfection

Today was perfect. I had the entire day off from work since I had to help organize the library's luncheon on Saturday.

First, I met with my mentor Allison Boyce for coffee; she was kind enough to dispel my worries about teaching at L.A. Harbor College this fall. I can tell we're going to get along and she's already been an immense help with ordering my books and helping me with the syllabus.

Then I ran over to Office Depot because they had a CRAZY sale on school supplies. I got paper for .15 cents and cute post-it notes in cool shapes for $1 and lots of index cards (in anticipation for revision) for .99 cents. I also bought 2 boxes of pens because my writing tools seem to grow legs and runaway from me.

Afterward, I headed to Spicy Thai restaurant to have lunch with edithspage, ate some yummy food, enjoyed some fun conversation, and left totally inspired.

This evening, I just relaxed with the fam and suddenly got an idea for a strange story. This character just said the strangest thing to me while I was lying down watching old Martin episodes.

The weather was wonderful; I didn't feel at all stressed; I breathed effortlessly and felt excited for no apparent reason. I believe that is what people call being RELAXED. I wish everyday could be like today: inspiring.
