Every so often, you sit down and take an inventory of your life. Specifically, your strengths. Since my top 10 rotate out every so often, I decided it was time to re-inventory:
10. Skeeball. I'm not as good as I should be, but it's still awesome sauce. One day, it will be an olympic sport...and I'll still not be on the team.
9. Taking naps. I had hot, hot mono action in December and slept weeks of my life away. I still nap routinely...and I'm awesome at it. In a competitive napping contest, I would win hands-down.
8. Mini-golf! High score wins! I always get the high score!
7. Making cookies. I'm not going to lie: working for years at a chocolate shop means that my cookies rock the casbah.
6. Making breakfast. For some unknown reason, breakfast items don't burn when I cook them. Which suggest that my meals are actually pretty good, except for when they burst into flame.
5. Drinking coffee. Yep.
4. Being sarcastic. Seriously, this shouldn't be a surprise.
3. Playing cello. Some days I'm terrible, but some days I'm surprisingly good. This has been a topic for the past year. And to quote my teacher, "On the days you're good...whoa! And then, those other days, it's...oh...whoa."
2. MarioKart. I am much better at MarioKart than I am at cello. And I've played it far less. There is some lesson about effort in there somewhere, or it just means that MarioKart is good trash-talk outlet for me.
1. Having adventures. Every. single. day. Since I was 12 or so. I have vague memories of being bored ALL THE TIME and I was actively looking for adventures. Eventually I realized that the adventures didn't need so much help from me. Then, they started happening on their own. And today, if I don't go out and about and adventure, adventure finds me. Since not all adventures are good ones, each day I try to take charge and offer a good adventure outlet.
Speaking of which, there is some daylight left, I've had some (burnt) dinner, and I think it's time to find the adventure du jour...

stupid flip-flops
how many times
of ouchy walking
until they stop hurting?
