Reasons why things might be looking up
Feb. 12th, 2010 01:25 pm1. My office building handed out free red velvet cupcakes with cream cheese frosting and valentine sprinkles on top. It was way too big to fully consume, but I had a nice big mouthful as a big finish to a tasty lunch (bbq salmon and cheddar/chive mashed potatoes, for those of you who care about these things).
2. Weevil's butt is no longer creating anxiety-inducing messes. For now, at least.
3. I have a new John McNally book waiting for pick-up at the Barbara's in Oak Park.
4. It's Friday. Sometimes a weekend with no plans looms large, but in this case I'm embracing the chance to move about slowly and maybe finish the assignment that I was given in last week's Chicago Manual of Style intensive seminar. But that's only if I'm feeling motivated. Otherwise most of my weekend is going to consist of me reading, writing, and catching up on DVRd wrestling shows. And oh yeah, did I mention napping? Because there will be napping. It will be epic.
5. This time next week, I will be in Nashville for the first time!!!!!! More on this later.
6. I was able to come up with at least five points of positivity despite having an exhausting week. Which means I haven't fully lost the ability to remain hopeful in the face of adversity. Yes, this in and of itself deserves to round out my list. It shows that I am enduring even when life has tried its best to kick my ass. So take that, life!
