    Same here! I have many books at home waiting to be read, but I'm always compelled to buy new ones - there's nothing more promising than the perfume of a new book.

    My mom got me this black velour tracksuit, so it's perfect for running and working out like I like to do. :) I can't wait to use it.

    And my bowling team won all our matches (all 2 of them) today! :D

    Giving a Christmas gift to people who don't expect one from me. Makes them happy, which makes me happy, which makes them happy again. Happifying cycle.

    My brother (he's ten) invited me and Joel to his band concert tonight. I had to work until right before it started, so we missed the first song. When I told him that after the concert, he busted out his trumpet right there in the middle of everyone leaving and played it for us. :D SO CUTE!

    So true!

    Gingerbreadmen and drawing stupid stuff on paper (that you're actually writing a story on, but never mind), :love: <-- lots of those, very cold weather (and warm gloves), long knitted scarfs, stuff like that... :)

    Finding poems I'd scribbled down and forgotten about. 'Specially when they're decent poems.

    Reading, and having it inspire me to do something else - mostly writing related.

    Today I read a line of D.H. Lawrance, I wrote a few paragraphs of prose then scribbled down a poem that I think is pretty good. Now that's insperation.

    Edit. I'm going back to my parent's home tomorrow. :D

    I feel like this is some inside joke that I'm missing out on.
