Singing and Dancing....

Here's another picture of me and one of my buddies in Dallas. I like this one!

You know what?! I've discovered that I am SO HAPPY when I'm singing and dancing!! Believe it or not, I'm not generally in a space where I'm comfortable singing and dancing. WELL - let me clarify. When I'm around my peers, or clients (which is usually the case) and a good song comes on, I'm definitely comfortable enough to "fake sing" and bop a little jiggy. However - if I'm alone (usually in my car or when I'm home alone...in my hotel room, that is), then I sing and dance as if I'm really spectacular at it and I have a paying audience.


Here's a perfect example. I'm working overnights here in Newport Beach, CA. I'm actually at a large chain hotel - so I'm a little out of my element, and I have to really think a lot more than normal about my words and actions (most of you know, I certainly lack one of those internal filters that keeps you from saying something stupid at the wrong time). I have had to wake up in the middle of the day, the past two days for phone/conference calls. This puts a bit of a damper on the sleep schedule. Today I finally got to sleep in. That resulted in me falling asleep at about 8 am this morning, and then waking up at about 3pm (not enough sleep for me AT ALL). So - I didn't even get out of bed until I got an invitation to dinner at 8pm. I had a GREAT dinner (the food at chain hotels ROCKS), and was therefore VERY happy once I got back to my room. I immediately turned on my iTunes and started belting out "You and I Both" by Jason Mraz (It's a song over on the right, if you want to hear it, just click on the next button until you see it and can click on it). WHO DOES THAT?! Is this normal?


I'm serious - I want to know.


The real kicker is that I really think I'm awesome!! Don't tell anybody. What's even more embarrassing is that every once in awhile I'll stop in front of this big mirror in my hotel room and sing to myself!! HAHAHA.


Shew! That just makes me SO happy!!


Once the song was over and I was finished parading around my room like a little school girl, I laid across my huge bed and flipped through the channels. "Definitely, Maybe" was on HBO. OMG. LOVE that movie. BUT - this time I actually shed a tear at the end. What the HELL is going on with me?! HAHAHA. WHO DOES THAT?! Is this normal?


I'm serious - I want to know.


I've got a lot on my mind this week - and it will continue into next week. I'm thinking about really significant, life-changing things.... If this weren't a blog, and you were in front of me, I would SO tell you what I'm talking about. If things actually work out the way I hope they do - I should have some really interesting news in about two weeks. Cross your fingers for me, please. I'll really owe you one. A visit to an exotic land, perhaps!




Last thing - promise. I found three new gray hairs this morning. I think I've decided to name them Betty, Sue and Eugene.
