A little bird came right up to me.

It's the little things in life that make me happiest. I forgot that last year, and kept searching for some big thing, I'm not sure what exactly, to make me happy and I lost myself a little bit.

However, I'm back to remember how all the little tiny things in life end up adding up to happiness. Things like:

- new band recommendations from a friend;
- bubble baths;
- good workouts at the gym;
- somehow spontaneously discovering that I, who used to have the motto "any pot is no-stick if you no-cook in it", like to cook
- taking time to read books;
- random conversations with Becca T;
- keeping New Year's resolutions;
- being silly;
- successful scheming (the good kind of scheming);
- conversations about 30 Rock;
- planning trips;
- the possibility of spending my birthday evening with Will Ferrell as GWB (ticket confirmation pending);
- maybe winning an online Scrabble game;

Also, I'm on track with a book a week resolution for 2009. I should be finished my second book tonight. Notice that I have added a list of what I've read on my sidebar. Book #3 was just lent to me by a coworker and I look forward to starting it.

Listening to: The Tallest Man on Earth

I'm the master of silly. I think I would wither up and die if I could not be silly.
