The unbearable snugness of being...

Some things never fail to please me. First thing that comes to mind is the very short GrooveFM signature tune! However often it may come, it still always reminds me of last spring and makes me smile. Hard to say why, really, maybe just because I listened so much to the radio in that tiny apartment of mine. Hearing the tune makes me remember all the excitement of living on my own for the first time. And then, I guess, it just brings to my mind the special thrill of spring-time in general. All seasons have their appealing sides, but there sure is something about spring!

Now that fall is here, I realize again my apparent need for "nesting." All kinds of decorating stores catch my eye and I love the fact that I can light some candles and just enjoy my own company. Sitting inside in the warmth of my own home, even the darkness outside seems appealing. An amazing sense of complete happiness has flushed over me on more than one occasion. What else could one hope for on a Saturday night - comfy clothes, candlelight, an entertaining chick magazine, some sparkling wine, and maybe even a home manicure? I wouldn't rather be anywhere else right now...

The last week or so, I've also enjoyed the privilege of sleeping just as much as I please. I know that's coming to an end, so I'm hoping to gain some extra energy from all the time I've spent dreaming...
