Code Pink

I woke up this morning on a supernatural high!!! Here's what's happened so far...
  1. I literally woke up singing a Lauryn Hill song.
  2. I put Lauryn and India.Arie back on my iPod.
  3. I smiled at the raspberries in my cereal and hummed as I ate them.
  4. I said hi to or smiled at every person I locked eyes with on the way to the train.
  5. I smiled on the train all the way downtown.
  6. I chuckled at the thought of my reading Alice Walker's menopause poems. Don't judge me...
  7. When I got off the train and felt the warmth of the sun and the cool breeze from the river, I literally began to walk with a bop in my step that if only slightly more pronounced, it would've been a skip.
  8. I sang out loud walking down the street.
  9. I ran into Frederick Douglass and actually said hi to him. Y'all normally he works my last nerve. I wonder if I can get him to pose for a picture so I can prove to you unbelievers he truly exists.
  10. I ran into a friend of my old boss who I normally find sleazy and try to avoid whenever possible. I actually had a brief convo with him and wasn't repulsed.
  11. I daydreamed about having a picnic with the Tot when I see her later this summer!!!!!!

I hope you guys are having an awesome day!!!!!

I'm happy for you. That's what's up, take pleasure in the simple things. But I'll admit that my nose was turned up at a few of these. This is past code pink, this is code rainbow. Did you run into Mr. Rogers too?

No, but should I do so, I'll let you know!! I'm telling y'all this man reminds of Frederick Douglass and he might be just as old!!
