Things I'm Thankful For (1/1/11)

Saturday January 1st:

• cars that start...because mine does NOT
• alarms that go off...because mine did NOT
• getting mad and telling 2011 to fuck off...because I DID (which I didn't mean, by the way.  I'm actually quite excited to see what it has to offer)
• Mitsya Marsupial - for being a really terrific friend and offering to give me a ride if I needed one...if I believed in a God, I would thank him/her for friends like you...
• having a boyfriend who is SO wonderful to me and that I can rely on...even when I hate relying on people
• grocery shopping with Joey

              were curled up in balls on the bed begging for his mercy...


• "Crazy Free Saturday" - a brilliant new day
• locked doors...because mine were NOT

• Joey's amazing ability to hear the smallest sounds
• not scarring Chandler for life
• delicious dinners
• watching Joey laugh
• Nerf wars!
• this guy
• Joey telling me that I make life fun

This day REALLY pissed me off in the beginning!  However, the day got better and I spent the majority of it at work (being entertained by friends on FB while getting paid) or laughing (at home with Chandler and Joey)...not a bad way to start the year!  I'm so incredibly fortunate to have the life I have and the people I have in it...Happy New Year, friends!
