Mid-1990s Snippets
Last night I discovered I can stream the entire first (and only) season of "My So-Called Life" from IMDB, courtesy of Hulu. While I was supposed to have been tucking in for an early night this evening, I instead was watching the pilot episode, reciting the lines I remembered from watching the show in 1994, and reliving my high school years...not quite the way Angela Chase did, but in some foggy shadow of her tv life. I somehow see the rest of my week filling up with streaming video, spritzing out lines like "We had a time." Gotta love it.

Happiness Is...
...getting my name listed as a contributor on the title slide of one of my colleague's research presentations.
...having knit night with one of my best gal pals and not getting any knitting done because we spent the whole evening catching up.
...a hot cup of lemon-ginger tea on a scratchy throat.
...being on the clean end of "cleaning the house."
...a one-dollar bill in my jeans pocket.
...opening the front door to see my package of Arbonne beauty products finally arrived in the post.
...remembering Shabbi and Kika at their peak.
...sushi and vegetable udon and tofu teriyaki with a two-year old on my lap.
...my husband kissing the top of my head.
...family.
...quiet time with a book of characters I never want to bid farewell.
...dancing and singing with a toddler to the Glee movie soundtrack.
...all things NPR, PBS and BBC.
...learning to be okay with who I am.
...learning to be okay with who others are.
...being given another precious day of life.
...my life.
