tuesday.

that slight disorientation upon waking that happens after a really good and needed sleep.

the funky shirt i wore today that i found at the thrift store last week. it was exquisite.

the pigeon in the parking lot with pink feet that kept walking back and forth in front of me looking rather expectantly. he was cute and cheeky.

the thought of people who feed wild animals like these.

the sound of cars as i'm waiting to cross the street. if you close your eyes enough they sound like the ocean's waves.

music.

never being bored.

never losing curiosity.

lattes as ritual...[a comforting one i've returned to since my accident]

the opportunity to afford such a luxury.

the opportunity to hug a coworker whose husband has leukemia and is living on 'borrowed time'...that she came to me for a hug.

working through lunch because i get to build a library for troubled teens...supremely satisfying and challenging.

the unexpected phone call and tenderness...and the resulting sense of peace at the opportunity to say, it's okay.

hooray! new pantaleimon cd!!

dusk.

girls' night at job two...working with the fellow ladies...especially laura.

that laura's oldest daughter was my older brother's first girlfriend, and we didn't know this until we started working together.

that laura is such an eternal soul, she'll hide under the cabinet to scare me.

finding the perfect waterproof [boat] box to fit my bike.

that i still have a rental car until Friday.

that debra called to offer her support.

that i fixed my stereo.

that sashi follows me everywhere like the wide-eyed shadow.
