happiness is...

  1. The pecan pralines I bought at Trader Joe's. Just...damn. Go get yourself some immediately.
  2. Watching the pair of squirrels who systematically tried each window on the first floor while I ate my lunch today, as if they were casing the joint...perhaps in pursuit of the aforementioned pralines.
  3. Going out with new friends from my program. (Yay, I'm not a social pariah!)
  4. Visions of Thanksgiving dinner. (Apparently you can take the PCV out of service, but you can't take the food obsessions out of the PCV.)
  5. Contemplating arriving in Portland in December. (Fantasizing about future events, another skill honed in Peace Corps.)
  6. Reaching 20 days of no smoking. (Hurrah!)
  7. Leaving the gym jelly-legged and sweaty yet feeling like a superhero.

Well, that's all I have for now. If you think of something to add, feel free to post it in comments. It would be interesting to find out what little things spell happiness for my faithful readers. :)
