Blue Daze

Today has been terrific. I've been in one of my trademark mellow-contemplative moods where everyone thinks that I'm depressed but its actually bliss. The weather has been overcast with rain tonight and the temperature in the 70's. This climate always pairs well with my deep thoughts through the day and also with the nice bottle of wine I'm having tonight.

Other than the Bill Evan's piano in the background, there isn't much I can do to gain this meditative atitude, but when it decides to show up, I feel like the definitive Alex Wood. Hense, I've been deep in thought today, reflecting on the past Best Dudes Week and other recent happenings. Life, future, relationships, faith; they all have gained meaning today by means of my mental euphoria.

I wish I could really describe the way I feel about being mellowed out. Its so relaxing and my mind opens up to thought (for a change). I can think clearer, nothing seems to matter. Its almost a dreamy, floating feeling. As Pink Floyd would say, "I have become comfortably numb." And no, I'm not on drugs. Just high on...mellow.
