friday love list: do it for the children.
(To find all the other lists, just click on “listy” in my categories, or search on the term “Friday” right over there —->)
Well, it’s Friday, and I woke up with a dent in my head. I feel like a golf ball. If golf balls only had one dent.
It’s really sore, too, which makes me think I bonked it on something in my sleep, and don’t remember.
That is totally the kind of thing I do. In fact, I’ve done it before. More than once.
I’m not sure why I’m fussing about it so much, then. There always seems to be someone who can tie head dents into the presence of brain tumours or radical mental illness or aliens on the cerebellum. To them I say: STOP TYING THINGS IN. I really can’t do it, not with my OCD brain. I’m already freaking out that it seems to be getting wider.
I’m going to end up in the “As Is” section at Ikea.
AAA!
So, rather than continuing to Google variations on this theme, I’m going with a new mantra: when life hands you dents, make dentmonade!
Without further delay or head-feeling…
THINGS I LOVE
Undented heads
Concord grapes
Kitten heels
The photos that come up on my phone when someone calls me
The way my roommate gets excited about TV show premieres
Deck door open, fireplace ON
Hoity-toity grocery stores
The New Haven boys and Montelongos on Flip This House
Arugula (or maybe just saying it)
Hair bands (both the kind that sing and the kind that hold your locks back)
Stephen Colbert
Cheese parties
Car dancing
Good mergers
Blue skies on a Friday
Bacon Salt
Sleeping! Because I’ve been doing it for two weeks now!
Beanbag shipments by Fedex
Boot weather… and plans to buy some!
The smell of woodsmoke
Men who make me laugh instead of argue
Men who make me laugh WHILE we’re arguing
California tan, just hanging on
And you? Love it up on your blog, or in comments here.

Today my love is all reserved for Alavert. And orange juice. And naps.

- Concord grapes, too! Especially straight off the vine, warm from the sun.
- The sound over the baby monitor of my cat crunching cat food and then lapping up water. It’s cuter that way!
- Fall.
- Colorado in the fall.
- Brie with pears & Triscuits.
