4. Checking my email while waiting for my tea to cool in the morning, before I leave for work
5. Sitting under weeping willow trees
6. Recognizing samples in songs
7. Driving in/out of the city at night on 95, when all of Baltimore is stretched out, sparkling around me and remembering how exciting and glamorous that view was as teenager
