Sometimes life catches me offguard

I've been moving forward in a direction for a while, without really looking to either side. Moving to London has been the chance for new beginnings, new city, new flat, new job, new boots, etc...
Leaving behind all romantic complications in Atlanta and not looking for anything to "tie" me down in London, cause of course all girls know that guys only bring heartache. At least this was my mindset until recently, when life slapped me across the face (with a yellow glove :) and suddenly I saw someone amazing who had been standing there for months. So right now I'm feeling new hope, new chances. I feel like the winter has passed and the spring has come in more sense than one :)
It's time to kick off the boots, paint my toe nails and put on my beloved flip flops. Take off the black coat and throw on a dress. Twirl in circles under a rainbow :) OK, now maybe a I went a bit to far, but you get the idea.
I haven't felt so hopeful in soooooooo long. I think I forgot what it was like to really believe that life can be actually/honestly good sometimes. Life and my work has produced a more cynical side to me than I would like to admit.
I'm putting on my rose coloured sun glasses and walking out with a smile on my face :)
