I had the deepest sleep I've had for a long time last night. And I awoke this morning relaxed and with a feeling of content (somewhat foreign lately). Life is good!
Our friends Leigh and Naomi are getting married tonight. I'm not in the wedding party, but I'm doing a reading at the ceremony so I still got invited to the "night before get together" last night. It was just Leigh's friends - Naomi was somewhere else with her bridesmaids.
We had fun - got a bit carried away trying to make a hot air balloon out of a garbage bag, wire and kerosene. It flew about 20m before crashing spectacularly. Is that further than the Wright brothers' first flight? Sometimes when we get together we seem so typically like young male adolescents (which we're not, we're all mid-twenties) but it's just so much fun that no-one really cares. And it's not alcohol-induced silliness - we didn't drink very much at all last night, everyone wanting to be good for the Big Day today. It's more like we were too self-conscious and missed out on being that silly when we were adolescents, now that we're more natural with who we are, individually and as a group, we can behave however we want.
