One of those things.

Y'know what's a great feeling? Waking up one day to realize you're over it. It haunted your dreams and popped up at odd times, summoned by words or phrases you heard all too much. As much as you fanatically tried to get it out of your thoughts and memory, it came out of nowhere, smacked you upside the head, and hung around for the rest of the day. And once it was there, you couldn't just lay it aside. You just had to mull over it some more. And all of the sudden... Poof! That's it. Sure, it's not completely erased or evaporated from the depths of the mind. But you have to go out of your way to purposefully bring it up for it to come into your consciousness. And that... Is a wonderful thing. You simply don't care anymore. You can look back and it might bug you a bit, but it doesn't overshadow your day and what you're trying to do with life. It's an experience gained and a lesson learned. That's it; no more, no less. A great feeling.

Looks like I might be able to go to the wedding with Tim, road-tripping it down like I've wanted to do for a looong time. I'm pretty excited about this, I think it'll be a blast. I just gotta get the details sorted out. At the moment, though, I really aughtta be looking into my iPod's battery problem, sending my Palm off to Rob, and figuring out what's b0rked with my computer. Curse that sneaky BIOS. I'm suspicious of its intentions...

So good-bye, dear, and amen
Here's hoping we meet now and then
It was great fun
But it was just one of those things

Just one of those things
