"I am excited, just thinking of the party tonight."

"I am excited, just thinking of the party tonight."

Is the sentence natural to use or do you have better ones?

Thank you so much as usual in advance.

Best without the comma I think. " becomes more of an after-thought and less of a planned explanation for the excitement. Without the comma the whole expression becomes a single unit.

If you have the comma then the "just thinking..." becomes more of an after-thought and less of a planned explanation for the excitement. Without the comma the whole expression becomes a single unit.

Thank you so much and how about this one, "Just thinking of the party tonight makes me excited."? I think that I can use either one for similar meanings?
