Self, Great Day!

I've just finished the kind of day that makes me go, "GOOD FREAKING GRIEF, WHAT AN AWESOME DAY!" I shall now proceed to show you how to have such an epically amazing day in 20 easy steps...

Step 1: Read a book recommended by Taran.
Step 2: Discuss said life-changing read with Taran, interspersed with much laughter and quoting.
Step 3: Go to the pool and swim with Taran, Sarah, Nicole, and Alyssa until the sun goes down.
Step 4: Purchase a J-Dawg.
Step 5: Accept compliments about the beauty of your eyes from the J-Dawg employee.
Step 6: Have a spontaneous song/dance party with Taran, Sarah, and Nicole.
Step 7: Go to the park with Taran, Sarah, Nicole, Rory, and Tim.
Step 8: Climb on things.
Step 9: Jump off things.
Step 10: Swing. (Get creative with this step.)
Step 11: Watch a late night light show in the form of an approaching thunder storm.
Step 12: Link arms and walk home in the rain.
Step 13: Sing and dance in the rain.
Step 14: Receive amazing farewell hugs from Rory and Tim (filled with much lifting, swinging, and spinning).
Step 15: Put on some dry pajamas.
Step 16: Drink Nicole's Homemade Secret Spices Hot Chocolate (patent pending).
Step 17: Receive the most awkward farewell hug of your life from Taran.
Step 18: Watch a ridiculously funny old movie filled with song, dance, slapstick comedy, and actors who actually knew how to act (such as The Court Jester).
Step 19: Laugh uproariously.
Step 20: Proceed to girl talk with Nicole until you hear the birds waking up.

There you have it. The best day I can remember having in who knows how long, and not one part of it was planned before it happened. Life really doesn't get much sweeter.
