10 Things

10 Things That Make Me Happy (aside from my awesomely gorgeous husband and soft-earred dog)

In no specific order:

1.)  Sweatpants.  The bigger the better.  The more tapered at the leg, the better.  Acceptable clothing for any occasion.

2.)  Chocolate and peanut butter desserts.  Always a good combo-- like Sammy Hagar and Van Halen.

3.)  Puppies.  Once again-- any shape and size will suffice.  I have yet to meet a not cute baby puppy.  It's a fact.


4.)  Bruce Springsteen.  No matter what situation life throws at you, Bruce can provide the appropriate soundtrack.  I saw him in concert with the Seeger Session Band and they rocked.  Truly, a timeless musician.



5.)  Biosilk.  The best shit for hair.  Slap a dime/nickel-sized amount into palm of hand and work through damp hair.  Style as usual.  Great smell.  Great results.


6.)  Lifetime Warranties.  They just don't exist anymore.  I have a few items with LW that I am so glad I purchased:  Mountainsmith fanny pack, Chaco sandals, Moosejaw Camelbak water bottle and my Rossignol duffel bag.




7.)  Michigan.  Yes, Michigan makes me happy.  Think about it-- America's High Five offers everything one could possibly dream up: lakes, sand dunes, fresh produce, wine, jazz, CULTURE, rolling hills, skiing, golf, miles of hiking trails, camping, shopping, Ted Nugent.....  People may bag on Detroit and thinks its a shithole, but I think its one of Michigan's gems.





8.)  Iced tea.  Calorie-free and full of antioxidants, iced tea is delicious, especially when preggers.  I recommend the Dunkin' Donuts brand or Panera.  Mouth-watering.

9.)  Garage sales.  One person's trash IS another person's treasure.  Some people are weirded out by someone else's items-- get over it.  Used shit rules.  What do you think Craigslist and Ebay are?

10.)Insurance.  I'm so happy I'm not paying out of pocket for my trips to the dentist, OB visits, etc.  I am thankful to have BC/BS save my ass when things go wrong.  I guess this parlays into being an American.  I'm happy for my freedom to vote, freedom to voice my opinion (which is strong) and freedom to immensely dislike Ann Coulter, Rush Limbaugh and conservative fucks that hate gay people and are anti-birth control.  Granted, America has its fair share of shortcomings however, I'd rather live here than anywhere else.
