  • Mini Thanksgiving #3

    Aw damn. I realized that my off-balance weekend was probably due to the lack of gratitude on Friday. I felt thankful then, but I was just too lazy to do anything about it.
    So… here’s what I’m thankful for this week:

    Buddhism. Man, did that help when the Apple store told me all my files might be erased. It was painful for about five minutes until I realized I am not that attached to it.
    Political refugees from China who let me show them around California (more on that to come)
    Motor bikes
    Maple butter
    Living in a city with so much smog– makes for the pinkest sunsets
    The froth of a good cappuccino
    A freshly made bed
    Dogs that are so ugly they’re cute
    Scruffy beards
    Reunions with people you used to work with who seem much better now that you don’t have to work with them
    Foreigners in general
    Kids who aren’t scared to talk to you (when do humans get scared of each other?)
    EspaƱol
    Samba
    Red velvet cake
