Ever have a perfect moment? When you are blissful? When you think to yourself that you will look back on this moment wish it would be happening again?

Sometimes they're fleeting, like even a few seconds.

When I'm playing onstage. When I have a kitty curl up closer on my lap. When I am driving with the sunroof down and the sun is setting - listening to a great song, like something off the White Album. When Matt gives me that look - the one only I can interpret - through a crowd. When I drink the perfect martini surrounded by my friends.

You aim to have as many as these moments as possible, don't you? You're lucky if you have them at all, I guess. Lately I've had a bunch. I can practically remember each one. I try to remember them when I'm pissed or mad or depressed or sad...to remind myself of good moments, of how high life can get. It keeps me going and keeps me alive.
