Feeling Good

I am in heaven. I just finished a full body massage. I finally made an appointment with that woman, Lolita, and she came over and it was pretty good. $35.00 for a an hour and fifteen minutes is an excellent deal, and what's more, she goes into your house. She has a table and her style is deep deep tissue - just the way I like it. She is a little on the "adelentada" side ("Why do you pluck your eyebrows?") but I could oversee that in exchange for feeling good.And right now, this feels very good. I could get used to this! ("We do this every week? Tawagan mo lang ako," she says) I could get used to this, most definitely.  But, are there no gleeks around me? I went to see the movie yesterday, and I was expecting a crowd, and I even pre-bought my tickets because I knew I didn't have much time. So imagine my surprise when I stepped inside the theater and saw that there were less than 30 people inside. Plus, the average age was...15 ! Gee, is this my demographic, or has it always been? On second thought, don't answer that, I say as I clutch my Hello Kitty collectables.

"What's difficult in life is to stay centered when somebody does or says something that tempts us to close our hearts because their heart was closed. That is hard. But that is also how we grow. We go through those circumstances in order to evolve into people who can hold to our loving center no matter what the world throws us."
