Just me thinking out loud is my fave

January 22, 2010

I’ve been sick all week. Like mopey sick where I start feeling sorry for myself mostly because I have too much time to contemplate all the things in my life I haven’t accomplished. But then yesterday I got the happiest news that turned the whole week around. So I’m continuing that happy feeling with a list of awesome things.

1. when a movie you actually want to see is playing on the airplane
2. Milky Way Midnights
3. the piece of pizza with the really big bubble
4. the movie Hoosiers
5. Olympic t-shirts at Target
6. when someone has a really loud and unique laugh in an audience and it makes everybody else laugh when they hear it
7. when there is a cardigan category in an online shop
8. crossing things off of your to do list
9. watching someone win both showcases on The Price is Right
10. the feeling you have on the night before a fun vacation

Cheers to the weekend.

    Milkyway Midnights ARE the best! And you definitely can't beat crossing something off your to do list.

    I'm glad you got some happy news! I hope you have a happy weekend.
    I really love #6 it made me laugh out loud just reading it.

    Oooh, what's the happy news?!

    My fave from this is "when there is a cardigan category in an online shop". I'd also add watching 30 Rock dvds and finding new one-liners, any type of fried dough, and driving when it's sunny and warm with the windows down.

    Pizza bubbles are indeed a happy thing.

    I'd add when an item I've been stalking at Anthro goes on sale and I find my size…

    Nice chats while waiting for the bus…

    Project Runway marathons…

    Hope the weekend brings more good news and feeling tip top!

    i'm so glad you found things to be happy for! sometimes there is one thing that triggers other happy thoughts. i write a list and refer to it when i am down (or i just look at my gratitude site!).

  • On January 22, 2010 , Rachel said:

    Every shop should have a cardigan category. Someone should make that mandatory.

    Just writing about a few things that make you happy is bound to make you feel better.

    For me, eating warm chocolate chip cookies on a Friday night while sitting on the sofa watching a good movie.

  • On January 25, 2010 , Lynne said:

    I'm totally in agreement about the cardigans! I actually did a course which was on how you can set up a fashion label – so I could take my cardigan obsession one step further (never did anything with it.)
