on the eighth day, after god had had a nice and well-deserved rest, he looked around at his creations and was pleased. and then he realized that while he'd created people, he hadn't created comfortable, aesthetically pleasing, weatherproof shelter. you can only sleep on the ground under the trees for so long before you get tired of grass in your ( Read more... )

today i went out for dim sum with tamalinn and a bunch of fellow somervillians (including one of the guys from my writing group, surprise) and ate too much. but it was good and the company was enjoyable and thus today's good things are things what are tasty. because i am a bottomless pit and i like to eat. :D

i got this idea from foreverdirt. you know the eight days of good things meme? (if you missed it the first time, you post about something good each day for eight days. it's kind of like a hanukah meme, except without the latkes or a menorah.) her variant is eight examples of a particular good thing for each day. so, like, because i've had the first quote ( Read more... )

for jewish girl's christmas today, my sister and i saw seven pounds, which was much more of a heartclench movie than i was expecting. i think i liked it, tho. there's a great dane in it, and a jellyfish. just... if you go see it, bring kleenex. (my parents saw milk. they gave it four thumbs up ( Read more... )
