Focusing on the positives

I think I generally try to be an optimistic person, but often my pessimism rears its ugly head. These last couple days I've had some help staying positive. My Mom has been finding excuses to spring me from my grandmother's house, I've talked to friends on the phone/aim, I've hung out with my kitty (which somehow just puts me a great mood), fixed my own computer! (which was a little scary, as I've never tried to take a dvd/cd player out of a laptop before), gotten paid (by both the government and my job), read the latest in the Fruits Basket series, hung out with Peter, Melanie and Angela, and spent some time in Berkeley with Angie. I also have some tenuous plans to hang out with Susie in Modesto, also wonderful. All of these things have helped me, and I greatly appreciate it.

Oh, I also watched Wanted on Monday. It was fantastic! I loved it. Lucky Number Slevin meets the Matrix. The action sequences were amazing, there was actually a great story line, plot twists, and great acting. I would certainly recommend it. For those of you who haven't seen it yet and are planning to, I just want to let you know that my favorite part deals with a computer keyboard. You'll know what I'm talking about once you see it.

Anywho, things are going pretty well right now. Trying to stay up beat - am hoping to hear about some jobs that I've applied to but will have to wait and see. Happy thoughts, everyone!
