TEN things of joy... Feeling ambitious.

1) Waving g'bye to GW. *waves*

2) Breaking [livejournal.com profile] spurious_logic's brain last night when I told him that on Sunday we replaced the last things that were stolen from us in the burglary... by shopping at Good Vibrations in Berkeley... ^_^ *grin*

3) Test driving one of the items from number two, just a little earlier today. Thinking about writing a review. Should I?

4) Warm kitty-lap. Also, kitties curled up on me as I'm falling asleep.

5) Realizing that I probably won't get a hard-copy newspaper for today but also realizing that I won't mind THAT terribly much; more paper in a pile is a Do Not Want, even if it has very cool pictures and articles, I can prolly find over 70% published online. (CC times and SF Chron.)

6) a date to go have someone poke holes in me and my "niece", accompanied by dinner. (yes, odd that I am, I'm looking forward to that.)

7) light weight-lifting alleviates a muscle cramp. I will most likely do more of that tonight.

8) long and intense conversations with a friend who is very perceptive and trying to figure out some of HER stuff too. Perspective on situations in MY life that are helpful.

9) Chocolate in the mail.

10) Saying "no thank you" to even very nice champagne (I wasn't sure if I'd been handed a glass of non-alcoholic so I didn't drink it) with only the slightest twinge. It may be a very long time till my next drink. At least there is much joy in the rest of my life, enough so it's hard for me to say that I miss the (often dubious) pleasures inherent in alcohol.

They stole some of the stuff you keep in your bedside table/drawer? They just threw ours all over the house; it was really amusing when the dog found one of our toys and walked into the room just as the police arrived. Gotta love dogs.

yeah, the guy took that stuff and then showed it to his girlfriend before he fenced it. (she wound up talking to us after he was arrested. She also thought my old passport was pretty cool, with all the countries I'd been to. Ecch!) Then he apparently convinced the jury that it was actually the girlfriend who orchestrated the burglary and stashed all our shit in HIS apartment, conveniently overlooking OUR apartment...

I will never understand how they bought his cock-and-bull story...
