Weekdays, 7am - Don't get me wrong. I hate mornings. Hate. But every day at 7am my sister and I talk on the phone during our commutes to work. It's our time, it's consistent, and no matter how much I'd rather be in bed, it always starts my day right.

Sally - Okay, no surprise. I'm shameless in my adoration. But, when I adopted her, I had no idea how much she'd add to my life. She comes running to the door every night when I get home from work and she's lying next to me when I wake up in the morning. She's playful and gentle and I love her more than I knew it was possible to love an animal.

Coming across a rerun of a TV show I didn't know was even on the air - Scarecrow & Mrs. King, Family Ties, Small Wonder. Hell, even Perfect Strangers can do it for me if it hits me at the right moment.

Unexpected mail - I love checking my mail and finding an unexpected surprise. A card. A small package. I love it! And I've found it's usually the kind souls on LJ who surprise me most often.

We are about to begin our final descent into any damn area. Please make sure your seat backs and tray tables are in their upright and locked position - Oh, man. The only thing better than nearing the end of a flight is the actual moment the wheels touch down. It's a beautiful, beautiful thing.

My bed - I love my bed. When I moved from San Diego back to NY, I got this killer mattress and I could live in my bed. And nothings better than a nap. Naps in my bed are even better than sleeping late. It's cool, and the sun's shining in, and my bed is perfect, perfect, perfect.

Season premiers - Such a sucker but, after a long summer hiatus, I'm positively giddy for the season premiers of my favorite shows. Giddy! Especially if I suffered through a season finale cliffhanger.

Chocolate - I need chocolate every day. Every day. And I eat it every day. A hersey kiss, chocolate frozen yogurt, chocolate syrup in my cereal. I don't care as long as it's chocolate. Dark chocolate is a bonus.

A class of red wine after a long day at work - It's perfect on my palate and perfect for my soul.

Stories about my dad - I'm hungry to know and I soak it up. I'll talk about him to anyone who knew him, anywhere, anytime. I want to know what he was like as a kid, as a teenager, as a college student, as a young father, as a man. I want to know his faults, his achievements, his quirks. I want to know him.

ETA I have to add one more. First kisses - In all forms. First kisses with a guy that makes my stomach flip. First kisses on a TV show when two charactes are made for each other and it's been building and it hasn't gone flat yet. First kisses in fic when, again, we have the slow perfect build and it's just so right.
