how can i be so peaceful?

I'm not sure why I feel so... serene tonight. I'm tranquil... I can't figure out why... I'm in a lot of pain... the Vicodin is barely touching the nerve pain and it doesn't touch the joint pain at all. I'm slightly dazed and loopy from the narcotic. Yet, I feel peaceful and happy.

I'm frequently happy. I'm exuberant, bouncy, perky, joyful. A Glittergoth, perkygoth... I'm always laughing, giggling, or grinning mischeviously. Quietly peaceful, I am not. Except for tonight.

It's interesting. Maybe I should go lay down and try to read a book. Or maybe I should just sit here and glow.
