I feel quietly happy today. Quietly because when people ask me "how are you?" I say "okay". My happiness today is a secret. My happiness is my tooth pain going away. My happiness is hoping to go see Paul Pena & Kongar-ol Ondar perform next week. It's getting to see my friend Lark tonight, just home from a year of globetrotting. It's getting interviewed tomorrow for the Examiner. My happiness is listening to Nelly Furtado, the first artist in a long time I've been excited about. My happiness today is selfish. My happiness is mine.
