Nirvana

No matter what's happening in the world, I know that with these certain ingredients, I can obtain a momentary state of Nirvana.

Ingredients:

1 tea spoon of evening

10 cups of good weather (windy, non humid)

1 convertible car ( top down, chromes' spinnin')
3 handfuls of the different roads that make up the drive from Brickell, through the Grove, down

Sunet and all the way to US1

1 ipod car adapter

1 ipod

4 songs

1/4 Pink Floyd- Breathe

1/4 The Shins- Sleeping Lessons
1/4 Imogen Heap- Hide and Seek

1/4 Radiohead- Nude

1 care-free mind

Mix those all together and.....tada! Nirvana. Peaceful bliss. A state of feeling that nothing in the world can be so bad when you have moments like this.

Since I was the tender age of 7, I always begged my parents to drive down the winding, mazy roads of the Grove instead of taking the Palmetto or US1. Even when I'm late as hell, I will always go out of my way to take the scenic route. Ask my friends, they've been witnesses many-a-times. I just absolutely love beautiful things and being surrounded by them at all times, hence my never-ending love for Paris and its many hidden lil streets.

I did that drive last night and then I came home and watched Jon and Kate plus 8 which reiterated the fact that life is so good. Is that wrong? That a good life is one that is compared to Kate Gosselins? Poor girl, I feel worse for her than for Jen Anniston. Okay, that might be borderline mean but its true. I hope they find love and happiness and shut all these tabloids up once and for all.

On a side note, in 2 days, my noble nobbe is becoming a noble new yorker!! I'm sad, for selfish reasons of missing her, but more than happy for her. Its like an episode of Trading Places and I know she'll absolutely love it and stay there happily ever after. Its a magical town, a cold town, but a magical one none-the-less and one that only a lil nobbe can make the best of.

Tonight, my friends and I are giving her a Bon Voyage party, vulture style. This may be the last time all 5 of us are living in the same city, but oh what a great run it has been.

Best of luck to my Noblest!!
