I am also stealing one from prior lists: my new internet friendships (well hellllo!)

add to that these:

My new coat and shoes I ordered that have not even arrived yet.

My partner agreeing to buy me out at the start of the year.

Being inspired by recent conversation to dig out some of my old HC records and record them onto cd (watch out world!)

My investment in a new heat pump/furnace/water heater paying off and cutting the winter utility bills by 40%.

And, just for the hell of it, here are some other favorites right now. Thats right, more than five. If you have a problem with that, we can brawl.

Semester ending this week. Jaw not hurting. Braces moving my teeth around so much it hurts, which means surgery is near, which means I can scratch it the hell off the list of impending dooms. The republican party treating me uncharacteristically well right now. Canned tomatoes from the summer paying off in the winter. The reading of my dads I went to today, and the really good fried green tomato sandwich he bought me before hand. The show I just went to and partied like it was 1995 at (minus all the drugs and loose morals, of course).

Thats right, it is 3:20 AM and I am NOT ASLEEP!! AGAIN!!! But, it is okay tonight. It is the weekend, and I feel pretty alright.
