13.08.2010
Jogging in the rain and finding yourself the only person on the road.
14.08.2010
"When are you coming home, I'm cooking dinner?" phone calls.
15.08.2010
Watching a rerun of a favorite show and realizing you've actually never seen that episode.
16.08.2010
Making it to the food market just as stands are closing and everything is half off, "just for you."
17.08.2010
Thinking how smart your coffee date is as you sip from the cup
18.08.2010
Finding out you are actually not out of chocolate.

New Rubric: Daily Awesomes!

It's just past midnight on a Friday night. I've alerted all sources -- I'm staying in and working on my dissertation. It's a lie. Clearly. Instead, I just found the 1000 Awesome Things Project (check out blog roll) and I am shamelessly stealing and modifying the idea. I will write one feel good thing I did today, and will try to keep the effort going tomorrow. Feel free to join in at any time.

Writer's Block


Summer. City. Cloudy English beaches. Roadtrips'n'laughs. The ultimate 20 questions word: TASSLE. Barbecues. World Cup. Sad Brazilians. Rediscovering favorite people over Janelle Monae. Middle eastern news that make your hands shake. Go Dutch! Michiel de Ruyter. Navy barracks and bad pop music. IDEAs. Debates. On a point of information, sir, do you mind the sweatshop where your sneakers are made? A Greece-Bulgaria-Romania new energy deal. Hummus and marshal arts. I saw the Starry Night, you saw the frame... New job. Old schoolwork. The FSA has reputation problems, do you? Мерси, че се отбихте.
