waking up in the middle of the woods, and realizing your toes are freezing off and you need to put another piece of the wood in the stove. snuggling back in a sleeping bag and listening to it crackle and roar while the room heats up.

Watching a room full of 4th - 6th grade public school teachers giggle their way through dancing the water cycle.

Watching new parents trying to get their newborns to smile. And everyone's reaction when they do.

Mix tapes/CDs...even when they're full of sad songs.

Back when Amy Winehouse was at the top of her game, the curve in her voice could pull the shiver right out of my spine. Today is for "You Know I'm No Good" and that curve's effect.

When the world feels like it's caving in on you and the tiniest pieces of bad news or interruptions become a mountain of sadness, sometimes it's the smallest and insignificant acts that brighten you most. Thank g for amazing haircuts.
