In the interests of eschewing my move-related anxiety, I've decided to generate a few lists:

Things I like or things that give me a giggle:
-Sharing smiles with a Danish baby boy while being subjected to an hour long T ride
-The satistaction of washing my French press at night, knowing that I will not have to do so the next morning
-The little pruuurowow that emerges from Coyote my cat's mouth as she jumps onto my bed
-Spinach
-Baked stuffed potatoes
-Falling asleep to Robin Lustig on News Hour
-My leopard print flannel pajamas
-My new red Frye boots
-Knowing that I haven't charged anything on my American Express card this month
-Trying to figure out what human an animal most closely resembles: My friend Cindy's cat is a dead ringer for Wilford Brimley; Coyote the cat as a union organizer Boston Blackie, who sings her socialist anthems at the local coffee house
-Giving money to the man selling Spare Change on the corner of Church and Brattle Street in Cambridge
-Joaquin Phoenix
-The fact that Costco sells 36 packs of condoms and 3 packs of pregnancy tests, and all the ass that 30 rolls of toilet paper will inevitably wipe
-The word loins and the fact that Costco sells tilapia and cod loins

Things I do NOT like:
-Reality shows
-Thinking about money
-Twelve different Law and Orders, CSI's set in three different cities
-When people knock on their own skull with their knuckles
-The idea of a face transplant
-The sick, violent emails that I get on my yahoo account
-Walking into a stall in a woman's room only to be greeted with a toilet seat that looks like it's been recently sprayed down with a garden hose


Things that make me feel bad:
-Not giving more to charity
-Never having seen The Bicycle Thief
-Bemoaning my lot in life and then reminding myself that I am lucky not to live in Sudan or any place where I may be stoned to death for being raped
-Referencing War and Peace, knowing full well I've never read any of the Russians
