Good Things

Genevieve mentioned that all I ever have these days is a litany of woes and that she was a bit worried. It's just that it's easier to overdramatize than be grateful, so I thought I'd highlight some of the good things that are going on:

• Yesterday was French Onion Friday at Susy's Soups, plus they had the Amy wrap, which is the best thing ever. It's a hummus and veggie wrap, but their hummus rocks. It is so thick and beany and smooth.
  
• The album and band that I'm now obsessed with--who doesn't love a trumpet?
• I went back to physical therapy for my arm to decrease the pain this winter and it's really working.
  
• The black wool pants I bought last year still fit and look great. Plus deliciously warm and available again from Banana Republic.
• The cats: Tom Collins is now playing with the new catnip mouse. Ticky is well and no longer afraid of me--he seeks me out and sits on my and lets me pet him.
  
• I figured out the best weatherstripping for the kitchen door to block the draft.
• Prison Break. Ignore the plot holes, gaze upon the intelligent hotness of Wentworth Miller and enjoy the excellent acting and writing.
  
• Bela Dubby has been in business a whole year!
• The Gehring children's bodies may have been found.
  
• Christmas is coming! Play "Back Door Santa!" I know that my season doesn't start until the 16th, but it stretches to January 8th.
• I'm employed, my house is warm and people and cats love me. That's enough.
