Things I like to do:
- Eating chocolate as an apertif to breakfast.
- Sitting quietly amongst my kittens and stare at our Christmas lights.
- Take pictures of our perfect little beach in the morning and send them to past coworkers who still hold regular jobs in regular fluorescently-lit offices. This is especially effective on weekdays.
- Tell my husband how beauitful he is on a daily basis.
- Listen to old Standards and dance while I’m cooking.
Things I do not like to do:
- Run marathons. Or for that matter, running of any kind really.
- Wash dishes.
- Turn the lights off my mom’s barns that are 500 ft from the house in the dead of night. (Fuck it, they can stay on ’til morning).
- Having dreams that the house is haunted while making out with jake gyllenhaal.
It being December 31st and all, I hearby resolve to do less of the things I do not like, and more of the things I do like. Except, I should probably cut back on the candy…

Hey hey now… nothing wrong with making out with Jake Glyllenhal… don’t throw the baby out with the bathwater.
Whoo Hoo! A happy commentator, my favorite one as fate should have it! You’re absolutely right, I should have explained that the offensive part of the dream were in fact the GHOSTS who were distracting me from making out with Jake Glyllenhal. If I were ever to write a book, I would request that you be my editor. Lucky for you, there will be no such event. I am happy to have you point out the deficiencies in my blogging efforts though.
