In no particular order: laughing, music, the stars, art, great food, wine and martinis, men in uniform, white roses, photography, hugs, live jazz, flying, Pottery Barn, surprises, doing nice things for people without expecting anything in return, candles, autumn, campfires, passion, traveling, coffee, outoor concerts, friends and family, dogs on wheels, IU basketball, winter, White Sox baseball, beer gardens, horseback riding, guys in jeeps, and smoking a good hand rolled cigar once in a while. That's just the tip of the iceberg, though- I love lots of random shit. If you want to know about anything else, just ask.
