trying to live in the present ?!

Boy - can life be just so full of irritations (minor and major). Things like...
-my luggage getting lost at DCA yesterday and not getting it until this morning (thank goodness for Ambien to help me sleep last night!)
-people who are really insecure and thus end up puffed up and acting like they are FAR more important than they really are!
-an old mouse that sticks!
-touchy, feely people
-not being able to record Alias this week and no access to a tv in an old post WWII dorm

Okay - enough complaining. All better now! There really are just too many wonderful things in life to keep me from having some peace and joy. Things like...
-seeing friends that I don't get to see too often
-a nice walk in glorious sunshine
-a husband who loves me and treats me well
-a chance to take a class from a really good prof and learn some interesting things
-freedom to live as I choose
-good health

Well, I feel better now! So - I will forget about irritating, self-important people and enjoy the gift of this day - truly live in the present...

How about being on your own for a few days in a cool city? Eat lots of good food and see some movies for me! When are you going to see Revenge?

I am enjoying the city, the food, and will enjoy the Sangria tonight! And I have decided to stay away from my work email for a couple days (even if I have 182 emails when I return!)
