“Once a little boy sent me a charming card with a little drawing on it. I loved it. I answer all my children’s letters — sometimes very hastily — but this one I lingered over. I sent him a card and I drew a picture of a Wild Thing on it. I wrote, “Dear Jim: I loved your card.” Then I got a letter back from his mother and she said, “Jim loved your card so much he ate it.” That to me was one of the highest compliments I’ve ever received. He didn’t care that it was an original Maurice Sendak drawing or anything. He saw it, he loved it, he ate it.”

Little (and big) things that make me happy
People I love busting into laughter on my bed. and destroying a box of Girl Scout cookies.
Dancing in my kitchen. “HEY I JUST MET YOU AND THIS IS CRAZY” and KClarkson
Fantastically unrestrained text conversations.
Constantly being reminded of spring break plans in my inbox.
Ordering half a dozen donut holes at 2 a.m. and discovering you got a dozen.
Talking to one of my fav loves about boys via rapidfire messages at work and keeping up a thousand-word message thread. Barely getting work done, ahem.
The day also getting infinitely better after an awesome conversation with one of my bosses.
Music that fits just what you need.
Beach days.
Getting tan when you didn’t expect to.
Earrings that make any outfit infinitely better.
Being grateful for bosses who look out for me, for my awesome internship, for my friends and bros (hah).
p.s. BUT HERE’S MY NUMBER SO CALL ME MAYBE
Just an hour before, I was perched on the edge of my bathtub, contentedly listening to new music and taking off the deep red polish that had been slowly scratched and chipped off my toes, no longer presentable.
Moment from last weekend
Walking into the DB party:
“If I were a straight man, I would date you.”- MLee. love you boy. Sorry I don’t believe it when people say adorb things to me.

Also, this Sandra Fluke business is terrible and frustrating. Way to go Rush Limbaugh, for making unwarranted and hugely appalling comments.
Come Back To Bed
John Mayer
You can be mad in the morning
I’ll take back what I said
Come back to bed
Don’t haunt your love over my head
Thank you John Mayer.
