Appreciation
Although I'm typically a bitcher and a whiner, I feel blessed for all the wonderful, irreplaceable things and people in my life. It is a fault of my own that I don't express my appreciation more, so here's a somewhat exhaustive list of some of the things, big and small, that I am so very fortunate to have, in no particular order.
- My job. It's shit for money, but I enjoy it there. With the unemployment going on now, we should all be grateful to have jobs. My mindless part time job makes going to school possible for me. Well that, and all my student loans.
- My kitten, Rasputia. She's violent and destroys everything, but I love that little fluff so dearly.
- Financial Aid, especially grants.
- My Brita Water Filtration Pitcher
- "Me Talk Pretty Someday" by David Sedaris -- one of my favorite books of all time. It's insanely funny and clever, and I love his "voice" as a writer.
- Melatonin
- Good coffee (like Kona, French Roast, etc.) and flavored creamers.
- Google Maps on my phone. I'll never be lost again.
- My parents, for their love and undying dedication to me and my siblings. And for all the cruel, abusive, and dysfunctional things they did when I was young that has made me all the wiser, yet crazier at the same time.
- Mineral makeup foundation, the loose powder variety. Wonderful stuff.
- adultswim.com <=== free cartoons, watch them. Especially The Venture Brothers, Metalocalypse, Aqua Teen Hunger Force. Also see www.southparkstudios.com, as I happen to think that South Park is the best, and possibly the smartest show ever made.
- The Craigslist Lonely Ads, particularly the missed connections. Hours of quality entertainment.
- My lawyer
- I may be most grateful for my boyfriend. He is my best friend, my love, and my hero. I would be dead right now if he didn't come along.
- Of course, my siblings, who doesn't love their siblings??
- My knife
