Freshly made peanut butter - PARTICULARLY the "Honey Roasted Peanut Butter" from Whole Foods. Damn you, Weight Watchers! (shakes pudgy fist in the air)
The oddly compelling video for the (lovely) Shins song "Phantom Limb"
Morning Edition
My cell phone (which has been missing for five days now, and is presumed stolen, according to my phone company. DAMMIT!)
Double, half-caf, skim-milk lattes from Sorrento's on Anderson Lane in Austin
New TV seasons of Heroes, The Office, My Name is Earl, and 30 Rock
Reasonably nice EVOO
Burt's Bees Evening Primrose Overnight Cream
My new, super-comfortable-but-good-for-work, slate-greyish-silver, short-heeled, open-toe-but!-fine-for-fall-'cause-hey!-it's-Texas! - Josef Seibel "Zina" sandals from Nordstrom
Various soundtracks from musicals (e.g. Godspell, Evita, Rocky Horror,) played at top volume in my car, ven I vant to be ALONE
The big, juicy pluots that they've been selling at Central Market the past few weeks
Aveda Lip Glaze in melon. I've decided that lipstick ages me. It makes me look like I'm in my late thirties.
Eddie Bauer jeans, hemmed (thanks, Connie!) because I'm apparently somewhere between a "regular" and a "tall." Wear with snug-fitting "boob shirt."
My period, which I never thought I'd be happy to see. (You scamp; you're getting so unpredictable these days! First I see you every two weeks, and now it's been six, and nothing! And Mr. EPT says no, no, no...so, where are you?)
Somehow, the disturbed and twisted person I am (and have always been) has ended up to be a sickeningly happy wife, professional, and mother of two.
How can I be true to my dark, goth heart, in the face of this horrible irony?
