Because imitation is supposed to be the sincerest form of flattery, I hope Katie won’t mind that I’m totally copying her. Some things, like my husband and children are obvious so I’m not putting them.
Some things that I love right now:
- Puns
- Singing Kool and the Gang‘s <i>Celebration</i> when Oliver uses the potty.
- Naptime
- Working
- Coming home
- Riding in an airplane all by myself
- Knitting
- Matt Damon
- Big cities
- Driving down the road with music blaring, singing at the top of my lungs, dancing like a maniac, and looking over and seeing the person in the lane next to me is watching me and that I have totally just made his morning.
- m&ms with my coffee
- Babies’ skin. I love how soft and smooth it is, like it has never had a worry or been disappointed
- Karaoke Revolution
- Cooking
- Office supplies. I know it’s weird, but having a drawer full of blank, lined paper makes me happy. Also, clicky pencils.
- Diet Coke
- Blue
- Painted walls
- Taking pictures
- Pirate jokes
- The West Wing
- Britney Spears
- Manos, the Hands of Fate
- Rings. I wish I had one for every finger. I have fat fingers though, so it’s hard to find.
- Vanilla ice cream with magic shell chocolate on top. Mmmmm.
- That I got my belly button pierced again
- Tank tops
- Boots!
- A new computer
- Shopping with Kullervo, without the kids
- Making people laugh (probably everyone likes this)
- Gmail chat
- Papa John’s pizza with pineapple (and the garlic sauce)
- Oliver’s paintings
- Surprising creative things that I come up with and then implement, and that turn out as good or better than I had hoped, like this
- Doing gender atypical things (for example, changing my own oil in my car, which I did for years)
- Chocolate milk
- Cupcakes (hee!)
- New York City
- Redecorating when Kullervo isn’t home
- Vacuuming
- Having plans to do something with Kullervo at night after the kids go to bed, but getting so wrapped up in conversation that we forget to do it until it’s too late
- Brownie batter
- The idea of outside
- Sheep
- The blog post that will. not. die
- Being an Assassin Wife of Fury
- Down comforters and pillows
- The way that Kullervo looks in a pair of jeans (hot!!)
- Socks
