12/6/10

It’s the final hours of my birthday. To be honest, I’m happy the day is coming to an end. I think the day’s events perfectly reflected my past year. For instance, on my way to have lunch with my mother, my car completely broke down. It threw a wrench into my plans but, somehow the constant flow of birthday wishes kept my spirits up. I originally planned on just having a low key birthday this year but, I surely didn’t expect to spend it by myself stranded on the side of the freeway. I spoke with my book distributor Jim and he assured me the books were in print. It seems that we are forever waiting on the shipping. When the books are shipped, it will be a huge load off my back. I say this because my entire run is based on having books to read to kids...

A day can start off terribly but the ending is ultimately in our hands. Those that know me would say I’m positive to the point of being delusional. I’m always the master of myself and I try not to let outside factors dictate my feelings. Today was different. I don’t know if mercury was in retrograde or if I woke up on the wrong side of the bed but I had “One Of Those Days”. I guess that means I’m not impervious to the perils of life. But then again, how do you think you would feel if you just ruined the engine of the car of one of your family members? Yep, it was a bad start. When the mechanic said it wasn’t worth fixing the tone of the day was set.

When days like this try to bring me down I try to remember where I was sitting one year ago...
