Double Rainbow

Don't you love those movie snapshot days? There is glory-be sunshine, a soundtrack in your mind/on your iPod/in da club that is WINNING!! and frankly, so are you. 

A popped collar feeling, an almost smug expression flits across your visage but you are so self-assured and rightfully confident that you hold back - such natural rock star predilection has no need to be rubbed in others faces. In fact, I'ma spread it around. You wanna feel this good? Be part of the party of head thrown back laughter, slapped fives, air pistols and looking like the cover of Entourage? Well, go find it - no one hands that shit out. 

I'm sorta kidding there but really, the fall into an amazing party, omidog you wouldn't believe! kind of thing rarely happens. Maybe it does to your one friend, but should you not have noticed, you're not that friend. I'M not that friend. I'd like to be. However, the big baby Jesus has not granted that miracle to me yet. What I do have is, "I'm in."

"I'm in" has had me play rugby, run a marathon, try knitting, go camping up a mountain, win contests and influence people. Whatever you are doing, I'm in. Being all in all the time is awesome. Then it gets you super scheduled. Then you realize you used to love being spontaneous. So whatcha want? whatever came to your mind, it's all you. So how you gonna go get it? 

I'll tell you what I want. I want to be at a cabin (or some huts by the Galapagos) with my homies, my (soon to be) exceptionally hot boyfriend. I'll be paddle boarding around the lush foliage before coming back for a siesta (don't come a-knockin') we're having a luau, we're moonlight dancing in sand. There's fireworks. And not just the bow-chicka-wow kind, oh there'll summat nawimean? I will look up and be centered, knowing I got myself here and I will raise my hands up to the sky and yell with satisfaction. With fire. 


I want to tap into the feeling I have at the top of the hill on a roller coaster (first car, obvs) I want to feel like every cell is vibrating so hard with happiness I might explode. I wanna harness the feeling of how good Tina looks in this video. Fire. 

I also love rainbows. I know the science but I believe the magic. That last video is also my all time favourite opening scene to a movie. Ever. 

Unless my memory gives me something new in a later post in which case don't reference this - my brain endlessly debates with itself as it is. 

a haiku:

Rainbow connection
I've got the music in me
Destination: Win.
