Today’s Gratitude List

on a summer’s-almost-gone thursday in august

1) That I realized today the menacing iguana in my dreams comes from seeing this unbelievably creepy movie–called, um, “Don’t Go To Sleep” (?!)–way too may times when I was a kid. And grateful to D for finding the name of it.
2) Tibetan medicine incense I got last night on the Upper West Side
3) Getting home earlyish
4) The summer rain
5) Meditating in the little room for 27 minutes because I mis-set the alarm
6) Catching myself doing what I’m doing while I’m doing it
7) That I had time to start editing the interview I did with Mark Matousek and read over all the inspiring wonderfulness
8) The big burly guy I saw holding his baby while wearing a “Real men change diapers” t-shirt on the corner of St. Marks and Carlton
9) All the great Oakwood action on Facebook
10) Oakwood, for saving me and so many of us
11) That B. is helping me switch this blog over to Word Press so it can take comments and photos and all the usual bloggy things (Thanks, B!)
