Ten of My Favorite Things, from The Bookish Girl
(Mostly because I feel like all I've been doing is bitching and moaning and whining, and girl, that is so unattractive.)
1. My family. First, last, and always. They have taught me everything good, they have been my best friends, they have created a circle of love and care for me that can never fade. And they're funny as hell, with dirty dirty minds.
2. My animals. Frankie, Violet, Olive, and Stanley. For adoring me, covering me with more hair than I care to think about, comforting me, and giving me something wonderful to come home to.
3. Reading. My first hobby. (I find myself reading less and knitting more these days, which is something I should probably rectify before I start sounding like an idiot in public...)
4. As stupid as it sound, I really do love being Jewish.
5. Clean sheets. A small thing, but oh! when they come out of the dryer and they're warm and smell so good!
6. Babies. If you are a baby reading this, consider it full warning: I will smother you with kisses and threaten to eat your cute little fingers and smell the top of your head.
7. Coffeemate French Vanilla creamer. I'm not scraping the bottom of the barrel, really--I love this stuff. I can't have coffee without it.
8. Jerusalem. I love Jerusalem with a passion.
9. Laughing. I live for those moments where you laugh so hard you cry.
10. Talking to my sister on the phone. I never get to see her or talk to her enough, and now after one year of being in two different countries (she's in Barcelona and I'm living the lush life here in the Hoosier heartland), we're going to be in two countries again for the foreseeable future. My sister is my best friend and my favorite person ever, and being without her for so long is a hole in the soul.
And you?
