The Little Things

Some days are terrible. Some days are just plain awful. Some days I oversleep, get to class late, trip up the stairs, get cut off while driving, and then the garbage bag breaks right as I'm tossing it into the dumpster. On those days, I just want to lay down on the floor and cry. And cry, and cry, and cry.....

And then eat ice cream. After such a crappy day of events, I need only one little thing to completely turn my day around. I think everyone has their own list of "little things" that cure anything. Here's mine:



  • Listening to This Must Be The Place by The Talking Heads
  • Watching Friends with Kids, You've Got Mail, or Law & Order: SVU 
  • A cookies & cream cupcake from Sweet! by Good Golly Miss Holly
  • A head nuzzle from Kat
  • Seeing a funny face from my roommate Chloe
  • A call from my mom or dad
  • Leveling up in my new app obsession Hay Day. (No, this is not Farmville. And no, I did not play Farmville, and....What? How do I know what Farmville was if I never played it? Okay just shut up, it's not the same.)
  • Making art. No matter what it is. Sketching, painting, anything with glass. Using some kind of creative outlet.
  • And finally, hugs. Hugs are so underrated, but so simple...and much cheaper than a cupcake!

What's on your list?

  1. Hot comfort food! My fave is a scottish dish similar to a pot pie. It's filled with mac and cheese and covered in a pastry dough. Eating that on the couch while snuggling with my boyfriend plus kitties = happy place.
