I didn't cheat by backdating this; I had written them down and couldn't post til now.
Amusing- baby carriers (especially on dudes, it looks so funny!)
- samurai swords forged in plastic
- perfectly-timed beermosas
- vintage multi-paned windows (the ones that have skinny panes on the sides, not the ones that have equally-sized panes)
- sinking into a La-Z-Boys

Things of the day(s), 28.09.2007
Tsk, tsk... So I missed a day. I was busy. So here's double my fun.
Very nice- watching someone open a wine bottle with a rusty screwdriver and a rubber mallet (determination!)
- breathing after jala neti
- random/impulsive art supply store purchases
- molcajetes (especially full of guacamole)
- sardonic humour of graphic designers

Third time's the charm... Though I cheated, cuz several of these are things I merely thought of, not experienced, today
Sweet- relaxing in a hammock
- Scrabble (or Literati) deathmatches
- spooning, especially on cold nights
- the SLC cooks who know me and have my falafel ready to go before I pick it up
- bonsai jade trees

Two days in a row, a new record
Uplifting- softness of the air before it rains
- cheesy Boondocks theme song
- assigned reading that I wanted to read and discuss regardless
- surprise emails/calls/texts from old buddies
- trees that embed themselves into chain link fences

Things of the day, 24.09.2007
Five things I ran across during the day that had a positive influence on me and five things that drained my energy. I'm gonna try this out to see if it is therapeutic or at least informative to myself. So, til I drop it like I do many proposed routines [grabs hand weights and begins to make up for the last few days' lapse], we'll see how this goes.
