The best possible worst possible thing

Jethro Tull - Inside

All the places I've been make it hard to begin
to enjoy life again on the inside,
but I mean to.
Take a walk around the block
and be glad that I've got me some time
to be in from the outside,
and inside with you.
I'm sitting on the corner feeling glad.
Got no money coming in but I can't be sad.
That was the best cup of coffee I ever had.
And I won't worry about a thing
because we've got it made,
here on the inside, outside so far away.
And we'll laugh and we'll sing
get someone to bring our friends here
for tea in the evening --
Old Jeffrey makes three.
Take a walk in the park,
does the wind in the dark
sound like music to you?
Well I'm thinking it does to me.
Can you cook, can you sew --
well, I don't want to know.
That is not what you need on the inside,
to make the time go.
Counting lambs, counting sheep
we will fall into sleep
and we awake to a new day of living
and loving you so.

I like this song mostly because of the optimism. And the bridge: "I'm sitting in the corner feeling glad"...etc. It just makes me feel happy.
This week is going to be rough, mostly just because there's so much stuff going on. It started really rough, though, and to be true to myself, I freaked out about it. There was a slight bout of obsessive hand-washing (read:Aaron's special trip to the gas station), and the feeling of my necktie actually choking me...that's how tweaked I was. It was a combination of things. I think, I'll go with fear and denial.
Fear is obvious. For a few reasons. Duh. Denial is...well, for one, I was never ready for this. It came like a dynamite train hitting Oak Ridge during a lightning storm. Or, in the hail of some absolutely horrid analogies.
Things have kind of smoothed over. That's good.
You know how many situations you just think "goddamnit, just tell me what you're thinking! You're so damn confusing! Argh!!" I met someone who does. And it is as much of a blessing as I thought it would be.

EDIT: In the storm of vagueness and everything else, things still happened, and now it seems everything will be all right. Working out in the end is a good thing.
