beautiful day

(photo credit: oliver biggadike/p.s. that's my office building. i'm in that building typing this now)

before i closed my eyes to sleep last night... i was tired and irritable. what a difference a half-day makes.

it's a beautiful day out today.

the moodometer is in good range. the sky's blue and clear and the sun's making the day! for archival purposes, let me proclaim that life's feelin' kinda good.

I got ready for work singing to U2's Surrender blasting from my stereo (at volume loudness 24)

BAD - U2

If you twist and turn away
If you tear yourself in two again
If I could, yes I would
If I could, I would
Let it go
Surrender...
Dislocate...
If I could throw this
Lifeless lifeline to the wind
Leave this heart of clay
See you walk, walk away
Into the night
And through the rain
Into the half-light
And through the flame

If I could through myself
Set your spirit free
I'd lead your heart away
See you break, break away
Into the light...
And to the day

Oooh oooh, oooh oooh, oooh oooh oooh...

To let it go! And so to fade away
To let it go!
And so fade away
I'm wide awake!
I'm wide awake!
Wide awake! I'm not sleeping, oh no, no, no...

If you should ask then maybe they'd
Tell you what I would say
True colors fly in blue and black
Bruised silken sky and burning flak
Colors crash, collide in blood shot eyes

Oooh oooh, oooh oooh, oooh oooh oooh...

If I could, you know I would
If I could, I would
Let it go...

This desparation...
Dislocation...
Separation...
Condemnation...
Revelation...
In temptation...
Isolation...
Desolation...

Let it go!
And so fade away
To let it go! Oh Yea!
And so fade away
To let it go! Oh No!
And so to fade away
I'm wide awake!
I'm wide awake!
Wide awake!
I'm not sleeping - Oh no no!
