so, do you ever have those days when you feel nothing can bring you down? Even though you probably should be pissed or irked, you aren't? Well it was Sunday for me.
I woke up and i was in a pretty decent mood. I knew i was going to be driving to Clinton, Illinois for a Wal-Mart trip [more to follow] so i got up and decided i would spend some time cleaning up my apartment so i started iTunes and began to clean.
Everything was going well and then this song came on [i am listening to it again], "ladyflash" by The GO! Team. I hesitated for a second then burst into some sort of sublime uninhibited body moving. The song just drove my body crazy [in a great way] and i was dancing. I was literally unable to wipe the grin off my face for a good hour [swear to god].
So i got in my car and began to drive, 35 min west to Clinton, get there and had no hangers [Ok, so i am working on a group project in which we are using a 'mundane' material to construct a pavilion and the specific plastic hanger we need is only sold at Wal-Mart, but we need like 1000 of them, so we decided to spilt up and drive to different local Wal-Marts, i choose west]. Know what? Did not bring me down. I got in my car and drove the 20 minutes to Decatur. First Super-Store Wal-Mart, nothing. Drove another 10 minutes to Decatur Wal-Mart #2 and i found a pretty decent stash [200 hangers].
So the moral of the story is though is that i remained completely unstressed/ irritated. It was great. Then i drove 45 minutes back to Champaign and worked with my group till about 1am building a structure of hangers.
I had a great day, thank you, The GO! Team.
Don't believe the song will make you crap your pants it is so happie? Watch it.

BTW - if any of you are in Champaign-Urbana and want to see our plastic hanger pavilion, come by Temple Hoyne Buell Hall and look in the atrium. Since it is a competition [secrecy and what not], i will post some pictures when the submission deadline passes.
