Is it bad to start feeling so good? I guess it depends on whose expense it’s at. I guess I’m just sort of thinking to myself on that one. I do know that Karma is a bitch and if you’re not careful it’ll bite you in the butt. Case in point (and I know this will sound corny and a bit narcissistic but here goes):

When I was in my teens I was thin and would look at overweight people and think I could never be that way. Not that I downed them or thought they looked bad, I just thought it was something that “I’d” never be. Well, bingo, bango and 15 years later I am 60 pounds overweight. Then there was “the mole lady”. I once saw this lady back then who had a lot of moles and I remember thinking “damn that poor thing has a lot of moles. She’s like the mole lady”. Up it a few years and I’m covered in the little suckers. Some odd part of me feels like if I hadn’t thought that way or tended to be critical like that well….I don’t know. It’s just that now I am the overweight mole lady. Long story short, I try to not think so critically of people in case of, you know, Karma.

Aside from that, I’m feeling pretty good today. Even though I had little sleep and it is raining out, I’m feeling a little more empowered than usual. Maybe it’s the pot of coffee and carrot juice sloshing about inside me but who cares. I’m feeling like woo hoo! Today is the day that nothings gonna bring me down. After the last week it’s about time.

I have a ton of stuff to do to get ready for the move but today I have to go to the Embassy and get my picture for a visa. It’s very important that I take a decent picture. My passport photo looks like I’m bloated, scared and constipated. To say it isn’t flattering is a major understatement. I cringe when I have to show it in customs and the custom people never hide their look of amusement. So I’m crossing fingers that the visa pic is better. Anyway, feeling good and thought I’d say so.
