Thankful Thrusday # 4


So, boys and girls, it's that magical time of the week. Ready to get thankful? Here we go!


  1. Pay day. It's tomorrow! Yes! I'm soooo happy about this! I haven't seen wages enter my bank account since late August, so the situation is a bit dire. Friday cannot come fast enough!
  2. Fajitas. Yummy, healthy, deeply satisfying and wrapped neatly in a couple of tortillas. What more could you want from your meal? Except if you're a slob like me and always make a mess of something supposedly simple and tidy. Never embark upon a fajita without napkins, people! Trust me, embarassing food stains in your office clothes are... well... an embarassment.
  3. My roots. I've been feeling culturally homesick of late. It happens every once in a while. Yesterday I had a fado cd on a loop while driving to and from work. I didn't actually listen to it much when I lived in Portugal, but there's something about being outside the motherland that makes you cling to it every once in blue moon. And I'm glad I have my Portuguese books and music to keep me company when that happens.
  4. Sharing my life with a book reader. Yesterday I almost had to stare at Rui until he put Flowers for Algernon down. He read a third of the book in one sitting and I love him even more for it. By now you know how much I love books, so having someone to share that at the end of each day is quite the treat.
  5. Pay day. We've done that already? Well, it's worth mentioning twice, I'm really so excited about it!
  6. Being so close to the weekend. This is going to be the weekend when I finally win a Takenoko game, I can feel it! And the weekend I start making sock creatures again and back to the treadmill again! Also, did anyone say sushi? Just two more days to go!
