Remember how I put this down as my senior year song? I came across this video admittedly a while ago, but I was waiting for that moment when it seemed wholly appropriate to re-introduce excitement and happiness. (And come on. This man is just too funny.) I was talking to a friend last night who told me that I need to let go, jump and be naked. Metaphoric nudity. I promise. The whole concept of putting myself out there is something I honestly don't love. I'm critical of what others think of me, so I hold myself back. While it's not the most admirable quality out there, it could be considered a filter of really awkward and stupid moments. 

Anywho, I decided this morning that I wanted to wear heels, because heels are confidence boosters. Have a test you're sure your going to fail? Heels. Going to see an ex-boyfriend at a party? Heels. Feeling fat and lazy after the winter holiday? Heels. Heels are my super power in man made form, and you know what? I rocked them. So much that my bootie muscles are a tad sore. hahaha. Not that you REALLY cared about that fact. If I could feel how I've felt today, goodness, I would be one of the happiest people on the planet. 

Things to Be Grateful For: 

Heels.

Nylons.

Bright colored cardigans.

Attention seeking kitties.

"Aren't you Don Lockwood?"

My art turning out okay.

Government tests coming back with A-'s on them.

Finding my french book.

Bagels and Boggle.

Christmas.

The Direction College kids are home.

Nutella.

"Foofing" my hair.

Feeling pretty.

Being told that I looked pretty.

Getting waved at by my favorite man ever.

[reward] COFFEE.

So, the lesson here? Wear your heels, because magic happens when you do. Oh! and stick yourself out there.    You wouldn't believe the difference it makes. 

Happy Holiday's everyone!

(YAY. It's almost Christmastime.)
