Friday Love List: I have no snappy title for reasons associated with the last list item Edition
Posted October 23, 2009
I went to a seminar today that was really good. It's so invigorating to listen to someone really well-informed and passionate about a topic speak on it. Particularly, in my case, when it's about what I can do to better understand and help my kids and I leave with a bunch of ideas that I have to write down before I forget them. Most of these training things are not nearly so inspirational and/or useful. I love it when one is.
I love it when some of my kids stop outside my door on their way to another class to wave to me. And equally, if not more so, when kids who would sooner die than acknowledge me in the hall are bursting to tell me a story as soon as they get into my classroom.
And in non-school items, we have:
Chipotle's chicken burrito bowl
Glee (the TV show, not the emotion, although I suppose I'm for that as well)
my new red fleece from Target
a grilled cheese with dipping sauce tomato soup
Liz Lemon ("Another successful interaction with a man!")
Raspberry Pomegranate Michelob Ultra
college t-shirt Fridays which mean that I get to wear jeans and don't even have to think about what to wear with them
Nyquil
Your turn. Oh come on, I haven't done one of these in weeks. Surely you've got some lovable stuff to list for us.

Friday Love list
Meetings at work that actually have a purpose.
Boots.
Perfect Pita's Veggie Delight sandwich.
I also love Glee (which says a lot for me, I typically don't watch much tv)
Cheese fondue (Melting Pot, anyone?)
Warm sunny days. with a book. in a hammock.

Perfect Pita! Oh man, I might need to try to get some Pita in while I'm out there. It's been YEARS.

two things come to mind.
1) Promotions with significant salary raises that also make you feel excited about the job.
2) Any friday where I know I will get to 'live the dream' on Saturday and fulfill my Saturday mantra: Do As Little As Possible, For As Long As Possible.
:D

Stretchy cotton clothes that fit no matter how big my belly gets. Also along the pregnancy lines:
- not having to get dressed to leave the house
- if I do have to leave the house, going somewhere where I can get away with stretchy cotton clothes
- if I can't wear the stretchy cotton out, taking off my maternity clothes the minute I walk in the door
- popsicles

Oh, and in response to your recent tweet, I believe it's gremlins that you're not supposed to feed after midnight.
