A few cool things

[thrihyrne]

~Thistles!! My favorite weed flowers are waving their gorgeous fuscialilac faces at me from the sides of roads everywhere.

~Being able to wear festive spandexy tank tops without a bra. It's not so bad being flat-chested in summer, especially as hot and humid as it gets here.

~Bust Magazine. Any magazine that has an article about how to save money and has a paragraph section titled "IRA, 401K, WTF?" is enough to garner a subscription, in my mind. So I have.

~My stepkids. On the weekends when they stay with us, we've tended to set aside time after dinner on Fridays to put on music and dance around the living room. My stepson has given it the affectionate name Friday Night Freak Fest.

~This phrase for the twinfic, but I can't use it until toward the end: "He went from zero to infamy in fifteen seconds." Actually, I've had that one written down from the very beginning; it's what inspired the "countdown" title. I still love it and can't wait to get far enough along to finally include it.

~my friends, especially those with fandom relations. You are some of the most supportive, generous souls I have ever have the pleasure of meeting.
