a little while before farewell?

Things I like right now: 
I'll Seize the Day Tomorrow by Jonathan Goldstein. He's a humorist, not a comedian. Trust me, it's a good thing.
Blue Moon Belgian White
my wind-up bird t-shirt from Lark Toys

everything by Alkaline Trio (yes, I'm in that mood again)--like You've Got So Far to Go

"Soon ends our stay here
and it's been fun.
So tonight I'll raise my glass to us..."

rain while I sleep (I know, it doesn't happen nearly as often as I'd like either)
really good service in a restaurant
thoughtful conversation with a friend ("Be Still")

Things I don't like at all:

freckles (oh, relax - I refer only to mine)

people who yell in bars when everybody else is having quiet conversations

bird poo on my car

headaches

memorial services (the need for them, not the things themselves)

sour apples

broken fingernails
