let it snow let it snow let it snow

apparently a system dumped a shit-load of snow on toronto - and i am so jealous!!! i'd take snow over rain any day. it's been nice here, warm and sunny, but it doesn't feel at all like winter. and i miss navigating my way through piles of snow. i miss the cozy feeling of going back indoors after a day outside. i think the girls are planning to go up to whistler this weekend - i will definitely be sure to get my fill of the white stuff while i'm there!

and, as if you couldn't tell, i've been so much happier lately. 98 times happier! it may have something to do with the plans i've set for myself in my mind, the travelling i'm going to do this summer, or all the new things i've been doing (not to mention the new people i've added to my life recently), but i'm genuinely a lot happier than i was a month ago. i don't feel any anxiety over anything, and i'm excited about whatever is going to happen in the future. debbie made a good point the other night. she said that while many of our friends have settled down and got married, and of course they are content, she and i (among others) can still look forward to that one important person entering our lives in some crazy, fated way. i'm definitely with her on this one!

it's fun to flirt, and it's fun to be flirted with. it's nice to go out and not have to say, "sorry, i have a boyfriend," to anyone. i'm glad i can do what i want, when i want, with whoever i want. i know there's someone better for me out there, and though i feel like the timing still isn't quite right, and i still have lots of changes to make and maintain before the fear of losing this new-found happiness disappears completely, but i look forward to that day, whenever it should arrive.

in the meantime, i'm kinda sorta hoping for snow, even just a dusting, so wally can have his second REAL winter!

stay tuned!
