Songs to Spin Around Until You’re Dizzy to

When I woke up this afternoon, I found out something amazing had happened while I was sleeping: the sun came out!!! !!!!!1eleven
I was so excited I jumped up and down and changed out of my jammies as quickly as possible and GOT THE HELL OUTSIDE. I was so happy when I felt the sun on my face that I spun around in my parking lot until I felt dizzy and then laid back on the hood of my car while the world righted itself again, my cheeks starting to ache from smiling so hard.
It was so fantastic! It felt like I had never felt the sun before. My heart was pounding in my chest and I felt alive all over.
Oh guys, it was the best day. I went to the market and bought piles of fresh fruit and vegetables. I glided through the aisles with big headphones on and sang out loud along with the music. I smiled at everyone with whom I made eye contact, I cooed at babies in strollers, I made up little songs about all the dogs on leashes I saw.
I am getting so excited for Spring already! I am going to have a birthday, and I am going to see my brother (and maybe my mom and sister too!) and I am going to go to the Tulip Festival again, even if I have to go by myself. OH! Maybe my brother can come up for my birthday and we can go to the Tulip Festival together! The Tulip Festival is one of the best things I have ever seen. Standing in a field covered in color with the biggest widest sky above you, mountains lining the horizon. If there is a heaven, I imagine that’s what it’s like. Except there would be feather soft cots lining the rows of tulips so you could just lay down and take a nap in the middle of the field, and also personal masseuses for everyone so that everyone could get a foot massage in the tulip field, and maybe also a pedicure, and hanging out with your very favorite people while drinking bellinis. And also eating never-ending amounts of creme brulee and fresh strawberries without ever feeling sick. And also blowjobs for everyone. I don’t think it could be heaven without blowjobs, that just doesn’t seem right.
Heaven: laying on a feather bed in a field of tulips, while getting a foot massage and a pedicure with your best friends while drinking bellinis, eating creme brulee and strawberries and getting a blowjob.
Oh man, you guys! Heaven=Happy endings for everyone!
God, best day. Seriously, so best day.
