Things that are making me happy

Untitled

• Lunch with a kindly work friend at the end of a stressful week

• Blogs seeming to be making a comeback (?)

• Cherry tomatoes so disturbingly delicious that I eat them raw in a day, one by one, not a thought for salad and certainly not for cooking

• Rainbow flags all up and down Market Street in SF for the month of June

• The generous leafy green summer shade of trees in my neighborhood

• Key lime almond milk yogurt

• Granola with yogurt, period (something I somehow forgot?)

• My talking cat, i.e. my cat using her communication buttons. Especially when she is just saying her name as if to announce herself, or one of our names repeatedly because we're not paying enough attention...it kills me in the best way.

• More snuggles than usual lately from said cat

• Getting no-longer-wanted things out of the apartment

• Finally getting a frame so I can enjoy a Yelena Bryksenkova print I got for Christmas

• Apartment tips from people who live in slightly smaller spaces than we do

• Daylight for my early commute days

• Trying a new-to-me aerial apparatus last week: dance trapeze. If you're curious what that is, here's a piece on this apparatus that mesmerizes me over and over (and which is no way representative of my own skill level!): "Embody," by Kate Hutchinson.

  1. I think blogging might be making a comeback because Twitter is falling apart and now there’s a crack in the internet because no other social media site really fills what Twitter was, so we might as well blog or else abandon the internet entirely.

    1. Does seem reasonable that Twitter's lackluster state of affairs would contribute (especially now that the character limit is so ridiculously high that it's not necessarily microblogging even on there). Any plans to join the blogging throwback yourself?
