Thirteen smiles

June 14th, 2006 | Category: Triskadekaphilia

Things that make me smile. Reasons to be cheerful, as they say.

  1. My darling wife:
    Kathleen

    2. This one's a little image-heavy, so I've added the "Continue Reading" link.

  2. Loud obnoxious music, to wit:

    Rob Zombie—"Never Gonna Stop (The Red Red Kroovy)"
  3. And the (very) occasional country tune, like this one:

    Corb Lund and the Hurtin' Albertans—"The Truck Got Stuck"
  4. Judo:
    What I do for fun
  5. Prunes, if they're done right:
    The best food to come out of Iceland. Ever.
  6. Wicked cool bass and wacko lyrics:

    "A-B-C-D-E-F-G-H-I got a gal who wears her toenails long, drives a red Barracuda singin' meatpacker songs, and she ain't from Kalamazoo"
    Primus—"Kalamazoo"
  7. Being silly because I can:
    Hoth
  8. The smell of lilacs:
    Lilacs

  9. Cookies:
    Coolest. Cookies. Evar.
  10. Springtime:
    Spring!
  11. Lego:
    Viking Boat
  12. Someday I would like to ride in a hot-air balloon:
    CKY News balloon
  13. Did I mention my darling wife?
    Us, down at the beach

    Then you've obviously never eaten vinerterte, which is pictured in the photo. Mmmmmmmm… (Oh well, more for me.)

    Lego does indeed rock the casbah. One day I hope to visit Legoland.

    Post the prune recipe!

    Mine's up, but you knew that. In answer to your question, if she asked you to lick up some kool-aid powder you'd do it, right? I knew you would.

    Sam
    Yeah, Wallace and Gromit make me happy. I still haven't had the heart to eat those cookies, and I doubt I ever will.

    Thanks for visiting my site today! You must really love your wife. My DH is the light of my life! My son likes prunes by the way-pureed that is.
