It's the Little Things

Here are some things that recently made my day:

1. Being told I have "runner's legs"
2. Being complimented on my running form
3. Surprise movie night
4. Driving in the sunshine with the windows down and music blasting - singing really loudly and not caring who heard
5. Grooming my horse
6. Someone exclaiming "Oh my God, you are tiny!" when they saw me stand (rather than "you're really short" - tiny is a nicer word to hear)
7. Getting the right answer on a 1 question quiz
8. 50 degree weather
9. Braiding my hair in a "Katniss Braid"
10. Chicken Salad - I have the best mom EVER
11. Petting a husky - I need a dog
12. Learning that there are a lot more equine programs for rehab purposes than I originally thought
13. Getting complimented on my work ethic
14. Counting down the hours til Spring Break
15. Helping out a friend
16. Speaking Spanish with new people
17. Having awesome professors and bosses who really care about their student's well-being
18. Watching Catching Fire - I'm a nerd, we've all accepted this and moved on
19. Having a glass of wine before bed
20. Spending some time with my mom
21. Surprise hugs from friends
22. Grass-fed beef burgers
23. Running 3 miles

It's good to count your blessings every once in a while.  Life isn't all bad.

Places I Would Rather Be....

I'm at school, 7 hours down, 3 to go for the day, then I have to come back and do it all over again tomorrow, and the next day, then Friday's tolerable.  So, there are a few places I'd rather be:

1. The Hunger Games, preferably the 75th because I'd probably have allies, but I'd take the 74th.
2. Jurassic Park, in a storm, without electricity
3. Dauntless Boot Camp
4. On an airplane to Australia
5. On an episode of Glee (I'd probably punch one of those annoying little bastards, but oh well)
6. Scooping poop out at the barn
7. Selling houses to the snobbiest, pickiest rich people HGTV could find
8. Walking miles down a dirt road in a rainstorm...in sandals
9. In a queue for the ladies' room at Harrods
10. Watching all the Twilight movies with a bunch of adolescent girls
11. Doing taxes
12. Swimming with sharks
13. Pitching an entrepreneurial endeavor to the sharks
14. On an incredibly awkward date
15. Walmart
