Do you know what song always makes me smile? 'Feeling Groovy' by Simon and Garfunkel.
That idea - the feeling that things are just all right and it simply feels good - resonates with me a lot these days.
I don't actually feel a need to strive, or stress.
I felt that way today. I had a surprisingly pleasant visit to the post office to get my passport picture taken and mail in the forms, and the postmaster (who is also the clerk) guided me through every step of the way, with ease and good cheer.
I felt like I had accomplished something when I did that. Yesterday, it felt good to get the process going, today it felt even better completing it. The bit of positive human interaction that made putting the final parts together pleasant was icing on the cake. I walked out of the post office feeling groovy.
Later, I got to jam and socialize (and eat some bbq) at Rooters, and after that I went to my new Mac's surrogate (nothing can or will replace it), the Inside Out Tavern. I got a lot of love there, and got to play with some great musicians, and not one but two really good, new-to-me drummers. A whole lot of fun, and some surprising free-blowing - smiles all around.
Icing on the cake, I booked gigs there for i am Fool and Scuba Gear.
Da-da-da, da-da, da-da, feeling groovy.
