i've made out like a bandit

i don't know if this happens to you, but sometimes i have those days when it just hits me: i am so happy. and i cannot wipe the delight off of my face. today i had my (first) last visit with one of my sweeties that will graduate on to kinder. it is a bittersweet time of year because i will truly miss the little muffins moving on, but man, they are so proud and pumped that i cannot help but be excited for them, too! what an awesome transition in their young lives!

anyway, on the way back to work after the visit i was blaring music with the windows down thinking about how good i have got it...i love my job, my family, my friends, and austin! and here are some songs that make me smile for different reasons:

because of the lyrics: "my life's been so sweet i just can't stand it... i must admit i've made out like a bandit"

"earthbound" by rodney crowell

because it is the nicest song a guy could write for someone he's not even dating (and griffin is adorable)

"the guy that says goodbye to you is out of his mind" by griffin house

because i love 80s music, movies, and videos

"the ghost in you" by the psychedelic furs
