Okay, so it’s actually a fairly NORMAL Friday, but I don’t really feel like that’s sufficient, do you?

No — I want bells and whistles and fireworks and overpriced coffees and treats and puppies and penguins and magical things that make my heart sing and give me spontaneous pedicures! THAT’S JUST ABOUT EXACTLY PERFECT, WOULDN’T YOU SAY?

I’m not really sure how to make this happen. But it occurs to me that I should try.

SO! A list of things that I think are fabulous RIGHT THIS VERY SECOND:

The possiblity of lunch! LUNCH! IMAGINE! I DON’T EVEN DO LUNCH!
Advil — BECAUSE IT HELPS
Dumb sports movies!
MY HOCKEY POOL IS BACK FOR 2006-2007!
Really dumb love poems that work anyhow
Nail buffers!
My lemon-vanilla lotion (I SMELL LIKE THE INSIDE OF A COOKIE!)
The pink flower on my desk has survived a WHOLE WEEK
If I close my eyes, I can totally imagine getting a massage
I just finished something big!
I love Vox!
My street was blocked off by police cars today!
Bronzer! Because I looked anemic before I put it on! Because I am anemic!
TEXT MESSAGING! WOO!
Corrine Bailey Rae!
Thai red curry!
The small dance I just did in Erin’s office
LOVE! LOVE IS AWESOME!
Jenn’s birthday is this weekend! ACTUALLY, IT’S TODAY! But her party is this weekend. HAPPY BIRTHDAY JENN! (Everyone make sure to say that in the comments, or I’ll flail at you.)
And… you guys! You guys are awesome!

SO!

Because you are awesome, here are your four tasks:

Think of something nice to do for someone, without getting thanks for it or anything like that, and do it. Then report back and tell us what it was. It can be ANYTHING at all.
Give us FIVE FABULOUS THINGS RIGHT THIS SECOND.
Grin as hard as you can in the general direction of your monitor or screen. Thank you.
Get me a coffee! Okay, I know you can’t. But STILL! WOOHOO! Nice thought, huh?

Yay! Now for some happy images:
