Do you ever get this intense feeling of euphoria from doing things by yourself? I’m not talking about refinishing furniture, building a bookshelf, or cooking a perfect Julia-Child soufflé. I’m just talking about getting that feeling when you throw your lights in the washing machine, go to Giant to pick up those ingredients for dinner, or write your monthly rent check.
It happened to me yesterday. I was riding on the metro, and suddenly felt so proud of waking up on time, dressing professionally, and taking the metro ride to work…by myself. I’ve been doing all these things for years, yet, once in a while, I can’t believe I’ve actually made it adulthood, and don’t need my mom and dad to hold my hand anymore.

No, I really can't say I've ever felt euphoria writing my monthly rent check... :)

Wonderful Blog! I really enjoyed the science-fiction and curry flavored scribblings.
Do people still make curries with raisins? I thought that was outlawed in the 'Bangalore-Oregon Treaty of 1967' which officially separated curry from muesli...
I can't wait for the euphoria of reading a new post of yours :)
