take two

So on retrospect, that first post today sucked, and I still technically owe a post from that time I skipped. So here's one that kinda sums up what this is all about. The small things matter. In fact, in many ways they matter more. It comes from many sides, that sunny day that makes you smile, the smell of freshly done laundry (or even better, bacon and coffee in the morning), or tv's best written show (Firefly and Arrested Development can have a theoretical fight over that). The little things are the ones that keep us going, that remind us that it is in fact all worthwhile, and that every day has has the opportunity for greatness. So go run through the snow, put on your CAMP (which is an acronym that that means absolutely nothing to anyone but me and someone who is very unlikely to read this), and belt out your new favorite song (preferably with other people there to join along) because today's going to be a good one.

yeah, that's a way better post

Why, thank you!

So maybe this makes me sound a little bit more codependent than I really think I am, but man does it feel good when you do something you're proud of, and everyone else agrees with you. Absolutely 100% there's a lot to be gained by feeling good on your own about your own work, because as much as anything else, when I do something new and different it feels good. Trying out new dishes (bacon tomato jam was awesome), songs (all over the What's the Story Morning Glory Album, and yes the bonus answer to a previous post is on that album), or boring work stuff (gross!), it all felt good just to do. But the icing on the cake was that I'm not crazy and other people thought so too. But let's be honest, who couldn't love bacon, stewed tomatoes in red wine, and sugar/honey. mmmm
