Dancing (to early 90's hits). Running (at night when the streets are empty and the tiny bit of scariness creates small adrenaline rushes to make you go faster). Road trips with my best friends. Hot chocolate (in the morning). Diet Coke in the morning (and about every hour after that). Salt (on everything). Discovering new music (and then giving it to Julie). Crossword puzzles (that are easy enough to finish but difficult enough to keep me impressed with myself.)
