For instance, this guy... :)
1. There is a library at my work. In some ways this is a hazard because I hop down to drop off copies and an hour later pull myself out of the stacks--having read, thumbed through, and touched hundreds of books.
2. The people I work with read books. This is an ultimate luxury since most work places only discuss the latest Fox news story or the Bachelor. I go to a book group every single day.
3. There are movies in the world like Dumb and Dumber, Nacho Libre, Tommy Boy, and Hot Rod. I'm a new convert to these movies. I spent my twenties and most my thirties watching snooty movies made from classical literature and produced in foreign countries. What a bore! I laugh to myself over the scene in Dumb and Dumber with the bus load of bikini babes all the time.
2. I was raised in a big-old family. Yeah, I still eat too fast because I'm afraid I won't get my fair share of food. But seriously, 5 brothers? And the sweetest sister? A mom who always played the piano and a dad who looked equally beautiful in a tuxedo or dickies. Such a quirky and loving group of people. Who else gets that lucky?
3. I'm still dropping eggs (the older I get, the more that means).
4. Everything I pray for, I get. All I do is get on my knees and say "God, you're the best which is why I know this and this and this is going to happen" and it does. I mean Harrison pulled himself out of his anime zombie overdose and went on a mission. I had the money I needed when I needed it. I love teenagers every day. All miracles I tell you.
5. I was raised before the Internet. The best thing ever. I played the piano, pretended to be a newscaster, climbed cherry trees, wrote for hours in a journal, made cookies, played night games, fought, roller skated, listened to the radio (hoping my favorite song would come on).
