I just felt like making a list. Do me a favor and add at least one thing you love in the comments. Oh, did I mention I love comments?
I love how time flies when I play with Jaden. It might be a puzzle we put together, or (more often) a video game. Sometimes we go outside and explore or stuff. Swimming is always a blast with him. Recently, he’s started rhyming and joking some more, so it’s great to just watch his little mind work at trying to come up with something impressive.
Cheeseburgers. From Top Notch if possible.
A well-played game of pool. By me or otherwise.
My daughter’s generosity. She’s 13 and has volunteered more in the last 2 weeks than most people have in their entire lives.
A zero balance on a credit card.
Having a major catastrophe that concerns disk space, disk failure, or accidentally deleting something and realizing that your backups are GOOD.
Singing.
Giving my time to friends and helping them out – I love the look in their eyes. It doesn’t matter if I’m helping with their computer, or giving a ride somewhere, or whatever… I just really like helping. Maybe in a past life I was a miser or was really mean, and needed to practice the art of giving in *this* life, but I always love doing it. And with my horrible memory with actions or time, it’s not like I can remember I did it for them and expect re-payment.
Laughing.
The Office
Learning about astrology from my wife. She’s got a gift.
Potato, Egg and extra cheese taquito from Whataburger, washed down with coke or Pepsi.
Stewart’s Orange Cream soda.
Getting a therapeutic massage. Ahhh, myofascial release, soft tissue mobilization, orthobionomy, yada yada yada, just make my back feel greeaaaaaaaaat…..
My childhood.
A perfect strike in bowling. It just feels so incredibly cool, hitting the pocket, carrying through to the 3, 5, and 9 pin and leaving nothing behind but empty spots on the lane.
I love my friends. The ones with blogs are Jen, Ren, Peter & Shawna, & Michelle.
Troubleshooting. I LOVE solving problems, especially technical ones. I don’t care if it’s finding some network issue, or application, or system, but the search is the thing.
SnagIT
My dogs. I especially love scratching them right over their temples so they just hang their mouths open, let their tongue hang out and are hypnotized. Sometimes they fall over.
Getting to a movie EARLY, finding the perfect seat and not having to get up at all once I sit down.
Things I love: Lists. My kitties. Being told I’m awesome. Telling people they’re awesome. Nature. Butterflies. The idea of children. Love itself.
Mine:
Getting a database from a customer that doesn’t require 15 hours of FRAKKIN’ setup.
Getting a gig that actually has requirements and sign off before going oniste.
Eating chocolate.
Sex. Well, good sex. Not sucky sex.
Eating massive quantities of chocolate.
Having a day where something horrible doesn’t go wrong with my clients.
Getting a gig working for a client that is not a moron and/or a jerk.
Watching my arch-enemies go down in a pit of flames.
Being right ALL the time.
Someone dying and my inheriting money so I can pay off my debts.
When my dogs don’t have a bladder infection and aren’t throwing up.
Not having to clean my house, and hiring a couple of Mexicans to do it.
Money.
Money.
Money and chocolate.
My FRICKEN gravatar is STILL NOT WORKING!!!
New thing I love: Michelle’s list.
Awesome! I haven’t offended anyone today! Yet..I love that too…
Things I love…
Laying in bed all day with absolutely nothing on the agenda – i mean nothing.
Spending time with good friends and wanting it to never end.
Pumpkin purring in my lap.
Taking Jordan and Boomer to the park.
Great game of pool – same as Wayne, playing or watching.
Ice cream. Mmmm, Ice cream.
Calling 1-800 numbers on the back of products to talk to the folks on the other line.
Poppin’ my back.
Poker.
Video Games.
Thinking late at night – letting the mind wander.
Figuring out something when I have absolutely no clue how to do it or what it is.
Finishing a project and starting a new one.
Email! errr, Gmail!
Payday.
Trying something I’ve never tried before.
Chilled diet coke with real cherries.
Breakfast out on weekends.
Watching Sliding Doors or Princess Bride over and over again.
A good book.
The element of surprise.
Giggling when noone knows why I am.
Living at Mosquito Blue in Playa Del Carmen – (one day) *smiles*
Art – viewing or doing.
Battle Angel Alita.
Watching the look on the face of animal crackers and they get ready to go down the mouths of their makers! Muhhhhaaahaaah.
Building an Empire…many empires!
Ohhh, everyone has such wonderful lists! Clearly I don’t give myself enough time to fully ponder my passions.
I’ll add this one to my list: Finding the solution to a seemingly impossible problem, as long as the client isn’t nagging me through the entire process.
I love comments, too…and my Hubs…my kids…my critters…good food…a good book…snow.
The Office, Stewart’s, and going to the movies early for a good seat – all things I love, too.
Things I love… My Daddy calling me Cupcake, Peter saying my name, Waking up with Kristen in the guest bedroom, Mooch making bread on my chest to wake me up in the morning, Earl giving me wippy kisses, the sound of Chloe licking peanut butter off of David’s fingers, Hearing Mom & Daddy honk their car horn at Peter and I every weekday morning at 7:10am on the dot, Longhorn Football, Nip/Tuck, Duran Duran videos/music/ memorabilia/memories from past concerts, shooting pool with my friends (and winning!!!), sex so good you see stars, loaded baked potatoes from Outback, David Duchovny and my engagement ring. I could go on and on–I swear!
