It's Friday! Life Is Beautiful.

I went to visit my friend, Krystal, who I haven't seen in about a month. I was happy to get a chance to see how she is and to see her new place. I need to get out more. While I was there I made arrangements to be the owner of a goat skull. Yeah, that's right. I get a goat skull. Right now it's pretty gross. I've gotta wait for the bugs to do their job.

I feel so good about writing right now. I had a talk with a writer friend of mine and he was so encouraging. He basically kept telling me that the only thing I need to do to make a living writing is just to write. He's read some of my stuff. He thinks I'm a good writer. This just makes me feel so positive about my future.

I really want something great to happen. I've been so blessed, though. I'm so thankful for the way things have been going lately. I haven't been this happy in . . . I can't remember ever being this happy. My confidence level is rising. What I really want now is a little recognition. I'm dying to know if I won one of the scholarships I applied for. It shouldn't be long before I know.
