Leap: bound, vault, caper

It's February 29th. I finished work around 11:00 this morning, made a fantastic turkey/apple/purple onion/spicy mustard sandwich, and signed the lease of my new apartment {which is in a totally amazing neighborhood, btw}.

And then I came to a crossroads in my mind. First I thought:

1. Today is extra. Is it even a real day, does it count? Why I don't I just snuggle down in my pjs with a redbox movie and lounge the afternoon away? Where can I get some cookie dough?

And then I thought:

2. Hang on. Take this extra day as a chance to DO SOMETHING. Seize the moment, don't delay! Leap forward, bound toward your goals, start that thing you haven't started (for me, this book I've been meaning to read, that I totally want to read, but I haven't really had the brainpower to do the heavy reading yet). Caper around this new town (I'm in Raleigh) and have an adventure! You don't have to do anything, but whatever you do, make it something that you did.

So, hope you are having a great day.

Happy Leap Year.
