You know that feeling you get when you have a huge crush on someone and you want to shower every morning and wear skirts and you're awake during class and you walk faster and your heart feels like that experiment in the children's museum with the orange construction cone over a blow-dryer and a ping pong ball that looks like it's floating above the cone, because of the air, and you're five times wittier than normal and your two-hour Starbucks shifts go by in the blink of an eye and it seems like you always see ten people you know right in a row on your way to class and you never fall asleep before praying at night, and you're never hungry and you laugh louder and smile brighter, and you're not even trying to do any of that, because it just happens, and all you can think about is that scene in The Little Mermaid where King Triton's like, "what's with her?" And her sisters go, "Isn't it obvious, Daddy? Ariel's in love!"
It's like that.
Except I don't have a huge crush on anyone.
I think it's a good day when you realize that the only thing getting you out of bed in the morning is life.
