These are a few of my favorite things...


I admit it. Yesterday I was feeling a little grouchy (yes... it happens... especially when I get pulled over because my windows are tinted too dark. What, you might ask? Yes, it's true. The cop even told me my car wasn't registered in my name, but then it turns out he punched in the wrong number. Hmmmmmm....). So on the way home from class last night I turned on my Sound of Music soundtrack and blasted "My Favorite Things" with my windows down and my sunroof open. Then I sang as loud as I dared. I decided I didn't care what other people thought of me.

It sort of reminded me of one of my favorite JB things--her depression sunglasses. She had this totally old school HUGE 1970s sunglasses that she kept in her car and when she was feeling a little depressed, she would whip out those babies and put them on, then smile and wave at all the folks. I love it. Wreckless abandon of fashion sense and what other people think, singing at the top of your lungs... these are a few of my favorite things...

What are YOURS?

Ah the anti depressants. I was actually laughing about them now because they are SO totally in style now. Strange, isn't it???

My favorite thing? Today it's going to have to be going home and reading my book ... turning off the phone. And going to bed whenever I feel like it. I don't even care if it's friday night!!

My grandmothers pearl ring and the charm braclet that has some of my moms charms and my dads high school pin on it! They are my favorite "things" because they remind me of my most fvorite thing, love!

Magnolia Bakery cupcakes and brunch at Cafe Lalo! I got to have both this weekend!

Julie Andrews is also one of my favorite things!

Oh, yes! I love those dang glasses. They have made many a depressing day seem just a little lighter.

Some of my favorite things are: gum, clean laundry, handsome men in suits, campfires, traveling, country music, leg room, funny people, watching Survivor, driving at night, lip gloss, and a good Sunday afternoon nap.
