Beautiful Day

I had a million things to do today (for my trip I leave on TOMORROW) and I got none of them done. Ordinarily this would be a very disappointing thing; a frustration I've been all too familiar with lately. But not today; today was good.
I spent most of the day with my good friend MEGAN. I just love this girl, she's fantastic. She's lots of fun and always good for a laugh. Her and I ventured to the great city of Halifax today, to see what we could find. We did a little shopping, looking at some cute dresses and things. Then we ate some lunch at My Father's Moustache, a cute little restaurant downtown Halifax. We finished off our day with a nice long walk, and picture fest, in the Public Gardens. The Public Gardens are great, I just love them. In the middle of the hustle and bustle of Spring Garden road, there is a lovely little place, tucked away in a little gate, where it is very beautiful and quite peaceful.
For me, Megan is a lot like these gardens I love so much. (Oh yes, I'm going somewhere with this!) She is beautiful, inside and out, for one thing, and she is just such a breath of fresh air. Megan and I met in high school and I think she's one of the only girls I still keep in good contact with. It's nice to still have her as a great friend; great to know we made through the drama and mess of our high school years. In the middle of our crazy busy lives, that are always changing, I always have Megan, and I'm sure I always will. I just love those friends that you can escape the world with. When you just have simple, fun and beautiful memories with, no matter what is messy around you.
So while, in our lives, there are so many awful messes and so many cranky people, who make so many of our days lousy and stressful, here's to the wonderful little things and those beautiful people , who help to make those lovely and enjoyable days we all need to get us through the week!
