The Day Before

Here we go again. The day before a trip: packing... cleaning... running errands... forgetting things... remembering things... making phone calls... getting the passport... tying loose ends... getting EXCITED.... planning...fantasizing...wondering...

It is said that the days prior to a trip are actually the days one is the happiest. Two weeks before the trip is when dopamines are at their most glorious self. Is it because when we wonder, plan and dream things can be wilder than reality? More joyous? Life changing? Is it because we get out of our mundane life and that alone makes us simply... happy? 

So here I am today, wondering, planning, fantasizing... happy. Simply happy.
