simple joy

What are the simple pleasures in life? Listening to good music? Good coffee? Fine wine?

Mine include:

  • touching fuzzy things, like 3mm long hair on my dad's head after a visit to the hairdressers, or the fuzzy seat covers on luxury coaches (or the new hills buses)
  • listening to Norah Jones, while half falling asleep outside
  • driving, no doubt
  • watching my parents climb down the ladder of maturity and enjoy life from our perspective
  • staring at pretty things.
  • basking in the feeling of contentedness... like looking at that toy flower below.


It makes my day. Makes me smile. (maybe because it's cute, in an ugly way- a bit like that orange ferret we played with in maths today) I look at it every morning after I get up, and somehow, I feel lighter and I can get to school in a slightly lighter mood.

Anyone know where I can get these giant, brightly coloured toy flowers anywhere? I want to start collecting.

These used to make me smile too, but now they just look a bit scary/creepy like furbies (hehe Janette).



That's all I have to say today.
Oh, and that the INQ1 is hard to use. ==;

I have a Furby. Or however it's spelt. It was mildly entertaining until it f-ed up.

When you "feed" it by pressing its tongue, it's meant to go, "Yuuum."

Mine goes, "Yu-yu-yu-yu-yu-yu-yu-yu-yu-yu-yu-yu-yu-yu-yu-yu-yu-yu-yu-yu-yu-yu-yu-yu-yu-yu-yu-yu-yu-yu..." and won't stop until the batteries are taken out.

Ask Sharon or Sy about the toy flowers. They got me one for my birthday. Damn fruity.
