In no particular order:
- Monochrome cats, including scrawny gray kittens who appear on doorsteps out of nowhere and turn into sleek little cuddlebugs.
- Homegrown basil.
- Coming home, to a place that’s just as great as I remembered it.
- Good work, and the skills and the drive to do it.
- Living a half-hour walk from work, and a stone’s-throw from almost everything I need.
- Friends who hear me, and understand, and manage not to condemn even when I deserve it.
- This marvelous Internet.
- Professional respect, earned and not.
- Reasonable health, and freedom from pain.
- Enough, and then some.
Wishing the same for everyone.
