5 things

one of my favorite sites to check each morning is emily from cupcakes and cashmere.
every friday she posts 5 things that are currently bringing her happiness.

for me, today it is:

1) the three men next to me at starbucks. they are bickering over how to use the new iphone 4.

and i wonder, could i make a living teaching old men how to use the appliances their grandchildren have mastered?

2) anthropologie wedges. the ones i can only wear when i am not going to work.
so of course i will have to take them off later today. and probably have monster blisters begging to be noticed.
but for now i feel 6 feet tall. literally.

3) a lovely friend from up north is coming to frolic down south. and the weatherman promised higher temperatures. and if he misleads me, i will send him to chicago to report on the blizzard, for punishment.

4) superbowl sunday! i really only go for the food.
which translates to i am really only there for the guacamole and salty chips.
which actually means i only want the avocado.

5) its friday. and despite whatever sort of work week you have had, everything seems to sigh and bend into the weekend.
and i envision sleeping in and lots of coffee and down time to actually read.
it rarely happens.
but the magical thing about friday is that you have another chance at it next week.
