Good Things

1. The free Pumpkin Spice Latte from Starbucks via a customer survey I received on Monday
2. Charlaine Harris. She wrote the Sookie Stackhouse books which spawned the True Blood series on HBO. I am currently entralled by both. She has such a good sense of humor in her writing and I just love her vampire books and honestly, when I finish those, I will start reading all of her other books because I just enjoy her writing so much.
3. My dad's DVD-R that he had saved the True Blood episodes on that I watched this weekend since my apartment doesn't have a tv.
4. My Mom's yarn closet. She sent me home with 9 skeins of Homespun so I could make more charity shawls. I actually love doing this. It is how my brain calms down and I can focus and not fidget and worry about things not in my control.
5. My Mac. even though she gave me the evil "your hardrive is almost full, quit downloading tv shows!" message this weekend, she is a loyal computer that has never let me down.
6. My little Yorkies. I got to play with them all weekend at my parent's house. I really really really want a dog. Sniff sniff.
7. Trader Joes. I love their frozen food aisle and their employees that don't mind helping me pick out what to eat.
8. Cher. I made a mix cd with my favorite songs and it really peps me up in the car when I am sitting in gridlock traffic.

I had a lot of fun at my parent's house. The only thing that I dislike about going there is that the traffic BLOWS. There are always people not paying attention and getting into wrecks or getting pulled over for speeding and just too many people on the interstate, but one of my co-workers told me about the road less traveled so I am going to try that way when I go down for Thanksgiving. My mom made me spaghetti this weekend so that was really awesome and we got to go to the Pizza Hut buffet on Sunday because that is my dad's idea of cooking and I also had a cherry vanilla bagel at Panera's. I am honestly not that hard to please, I just like specific things.
