But if the buttah’s coldcold it don’t spreadspread.
Then you have to eat it in BUTTERY BITS. mmmm
<3
I love asynchronous conversations, but you knew that.
Mmm buttery bits… remind me to tell you my butter story sometimes.
And, my mini, impromptu Friday love list tweet from this afternoon (though I didn’t know it at the time): http://twitter.com/thespottedduck/statuses/875046658

Old friends and family who understand my weirdness
Water
A cold beer on a hot afternoon
Basketball
A great movie that charms me and makes me think
Breyer’s mint chip ice cream
Burn Notice TV show
Music from my 20s
Learning
Cats, even mean ones
Bare feet on green grass
Watching waves
Shoveling snow
New clothes & old shoes
For people to recommend things (films, books, music, YouTube videos) to me that they love
Acknowledgment that I’ve done a good job
Having enough money to cover my living expenses
The day when my student loans will be completely paid off (probably the day before I pass away)
New haircuts
No voicemail messages
Having someone say “I love you exactly as you are”
Is this getting too Hallmarky?
P.S. My Twitter buddies!
Pop tarts, hefe on a 100 degree day, sushi, american apparel track shirts, girls in cotton dresses, singing journey songs at the top of my lungs, fozzy bear, cheese, pot stickers, the smell of that one perfume, my family, wristbands from Gary v, road house, meg, mashed potatoes, cold showers, fall in new england, being drunk in pouring rain, fireballs, consoling a friend over Im, my dog, the feeling you get during takeoff, ham.

Ooooo I have to have Carmex :)
I love the fact that I wake up every morning and can dialogue with some of the finest people in the world. Dig it.
I love:
belly laughs
sleeping under a heavy duvet
real maple syrup
when my daughter asks me to sing for her
oranges that peel easily AND taste sweet
TiVo
singing out loud to my music when no one else
is home
mango chutney
LEGO
cheesy old musicals
barbecue
red, red nail polish
snooze alarms
sandals
cold beer on a hot day
compassion
remembering to pull laundry out of the
dryer before it wrinkles
northern lights
a cool breeze on a hot day
plants that spring back from near-death to
thrive again
traveling with my hubby
becoming immersed in a really good book
chopsticks
being understood
a perfect over-easy egg
conditioner
blowing bubbles with my kids
bread pudding
a great, big grin
my new MacBook, Paolo
margaritas
old flip flops
Blistex
alternately, glittery lip gloss
Harold and the Purple Crayon (just read it to students today)
silver rings
no alarm tomorrow morning
Zyrtec, which may seem odd for a love list, but I swear it has CHANGED MY LIFE
blackberries
blueberries
strawberries
Tim Gunn
daydreaming
my niece, Allie, who has started laughing out loud in the two weeks since I’ve seen her and I get to get me some of that baby laugh tomorrow!
I love:
-I have a heterosexual man-crush on Warren Haynes. I love him. Which of course means I love Gov’t Mule too.
-Cherry Coke
-not giving a s*$t
-making people laugh, even at my expense (usually at my expense…)
-a good cup of coffee with a cig and an ativan (probably just triggered your spam filter right there)
-Warren Haynes
-repeating myself
-slushies
-watching my favorite bands (many dozens) play live
-sleeping until noon
Just missed it being Friday . . . here it is, about twenty minutes too late!
I’m worried about different things… things coming up, things going down… while, of course, being aware the entire time that any sort of worrying is doing me very little good. I’m not one to slow down to worry, mind you — I’m a multitasking! — but fussing takes the fun out of too many things to give it the time of day.
Eating babies?
I assume you like to watch babies eat, as opposed to… well… “Get in! Mah! Belly!”

I love the sting of the ocean on my ankles in November. I love fish and chips too, but the fish makes me break out in hives and go bleh.
Maybe you ate some cod?
