Bitches & Hos

Tonight's exchange:

David: I know you'll hate me saying this, but I miss winter.
Me: Shut your smelly mouth.
David: But I love winter! You know I don't like summer.
Me: Winter is a shitty bitch.
David: Well, summer is a sweaty whore.
Me: Some people might like sweaty whores, but no one likes a shitty bitch.

Thanksgiving Already

Crapatoa - it was just summer a few weeks ago. On one hand, I don't mind, because with Thanksgiving, Christmas and the New Year all flying by in a blink, it's that much faster we'll be back to springtime and summer.

I like the golden light of late afternoon summer sun, not needing a jacket, wearing flip flops everywhere, iced coffees, and the smell of grass after it's baked in the sun all day. I don't enjoy being cold or the short days and long nights.

But in the spirit of Thanksgiving, there *are* things I enjoy about this time of year and life in-general, so here's my list of what I'm thankful for, in no particular order:

• espresso at the push of a button
• friends who make me laugh so hard I cry
• Jeff & Randy's amazing hospitality
• cozy fires and hot cocoa
  
• Dennis Richmond
• our Tempur-Pedic mattress
• smart coworkers
• The Onion
• rescued cats
• Henry, the talking bird
• fizzing codeine
• my car with heated seats
• bands like Cake and Weezer
• Timothy Olyphant
• books that make me laugh out loud
• making pictures
• Wal-Profen
• vitamin C
• working at home
• living in one of these
  
• supportive, funny family
• KFOG radio
• good health
• Calvin & Hobbes
• Dottie's True Blue Cafe
• La Mer products
• David's bizarre sense of humor
• being regular
• the interweb
• Charlie Day
• Steve Carrell
• Stephen Colbert
• Bret & Jemaine
• chocolate frosted chocolate pop-tarts
• water
• Life in Hell
• very good tequila

I'm sure I'm forgetting many other things, but this seems like plenty for now. Happy Thanksgiving!
