Happy, Happy, Joy, Joy

Love love LOVE this post! :D

I rode my bike to work this morning.

The random things that pop into your head on a bike > stressing about the day ahead in a car.

I feel alive.

Must remember to take pics on the way.

I want to do this, everyday.

Today was slow.

Monkey was my only company at work. I'm debating whether or not that's a bad thing.

I closed my icky Bank of America accounts today. Yesssss. That place is nothing but fees, so I washed my hands of them. Ta ta! My goal is to, one day, be free of this debt. I want to get super simple. I never understood why some people always use cash and are so against debit/credit cards and banks. Figured they were just old and paranoid and it wasn't really that big a deal.

Now I know better. Simplicity is the way to go. No debt, no worries. Credit companies are full of crap. I'm so glad I realized it now before I had the chance to get too far in. So, once I'm all paid up with my credit card and school loans, goodbye credit BS. No more.

I want to live out in the middle of nowhere. Living off the land.

Free.

At the moment, I am sitting in my sister's living room, half-way babysitting my nephew with my mother. Life is better than ever. I can't remember a time I was this happy since I was a kid.

Slacker Radio continues to play ads and give headline news that I couldn't care less about. I haven't had cable for the better part of a year and I rather prefer it that way.

I am getting quite in touch with my surroundings. Getting a feel for where I live and smelling the roses a lot instead of living vicariously through TV and what's going on in the entertainment world... well... okay, I'll admit I get my gossip fix via PinkIsTheNewBlog, but that's only on weekdays. At work. When there's nothing better to do.

Yesterday, a lady patient told me I look like I've lost 15 lbs. "What does 15lbs look like, exactly?" I wondered. Yet her compliment just made my mood even better.

Commuting by bike is really one of the all-around best things I've ever done, I think.

You should do it, too! ;)
