Oh What a Night

It is a BEAUTIFUL night out tonight! Not too hot and muggy, not too cool, slight breeze...perfect. It's the kind of night that makes me want to be outside and not come back in. If I didn't have to work tomorrow morning, I might just haul my telescope out there and look at the stars. (Off topic note - with so much light pollution here, I counted tonight and I could only see three, THREE, stars with my naked eye. That is just wrong.) It's the kind of night that made me want to roll all my windows down and turn up my radio - so that's exactly what I did.

On my way home from class, I drove the entire way with the windows down, sunroof open and music blaring. And I don't know what it is, but when everything aligns just right like it did tonight, I'm instantly transported back to being 17. Something in the air just makes me feel so nostalgic. I've also been into old-school rock lately. The only thing I was missing tonight was some Janis Joplin.

That sounds so nice. I know what you mean about feeling like your 17 again. It's that sense of renewal where you find yourself again and pure bliss exudes from your soul. I so love that!
