x-mas is stupid

I hate the holidays. They are made for couples. Dating couples or cute old married people or families with little kids. Everything has that warm cuddly feeling – which is great if you have a significant other…or a puppy. Sadly, I have neither. As I was reveling in my sorrows in the Publix checkout line, it occurred to me that instead of being a depressed poopy-head, I should think about and truly appreciate the things that I do have. So, I decided to make a list…

1. Two parents that love me (though sometimes begrudgingly)
2. A brilliant younger brother who always keeps in touch
3. An amazing best friend who, though far away, is always there for me
4. Great new friends who listen to me over-analyze and help me scheme
5. Malibu Bay Breezes
6. Enough money to put food on the table and a roof over my head
7. A great rack and three beautiful new Victoria’s Secrets bra and panty sets
8. I’m in law school and 1 semester closer to making my dreams come true!
9. A brain that works (most of the time)
10. A wonderful roommate who can put up with my mess!
11. I haven’t gotten sick yet this year (knock on wood)
12. “Cold” in Florida = 60 degrees!!!
13. A car that works
14. Mr. Dependable
15. AA batteries

Feel free to help me think of more things I should be thankful for!!!
