Ok after my list of things that are the work of Satan I decided it was time for a little more positve of a post. So I give to you in no particular order THE LIST OF REALLY REALLY RIDICULOUSLY GOOD THINGS!
1. Swimming
2. Snowboarding
3. Grilled Cheese
4. Jones Soda
5. Holding Hands
6. Large bodies of water, especially the ocean.
7. Birds (nice, pretty ones, like mine for example!

)
8. Hoodies
9. Music
10. Writing/books or writing books.
11. Big soft blankets
12. Candles
13. My yitto car!
14. My good friend CHOCOLATE
15. Lemons
16. Snow
17. Rain
18. Innertubing the creek that goes through town.
19. CLEAN SOCKS!!!

the way my cats curl up in my hair when I lie down and purr in my ears
fresh hot popcorn
the laughter of children
just about anything chocolate

the watch and the hangar and shadows
seeing my sons win at sports and seeing how proud they are
slow dancing
camping in the mountains
watching the stars from a sanddune on one of the Great Lakes
the Detroit Red Wings
discovering a new author who I think is fantastic
--or a new book by an old favorite author
cookies right out of the oven
bread bowls of hot soup in the winter
shutting my eyes and really listening to music
sleeping on a beach in the sunshine
birthday parties
surprising someone in a nice way and seeing their face light up
soft slow kisses
planting flowers
walking in the woods
going to the zoo or a museum with my kids
seeing a movie so good your heart just fills with joy
Well, there's 25 from me!

heh, if I were making a definitive list of my favorite things instead of a joke-list, I'd be using about 20 of those spoiler things!

Certainly spoiler would be #1
Weekends belong on the list.
Spoiler on the weekends.
Vacations.
A home cooked meal.
And a great restaurant experience.
Browsing the used book store.
BTW, Leper Fairy, are skate shoes really cool? I thought of buying some for an 8 yr. old.(don't wanna look like a clueless dork)

I love my skate shoes to death. I wear them with almost everything too... skirts, whatever. The main reason I love them is they are just so damn comfortable! They are really roomy and padded so it's always really soft. Also, on most of them they are meant to have really loose laces (probably only for looks). There's a strap on the inside of mine (and most others too I think...) that keeps the tongue down so I don't need to tie or untie my shoes to get them on and off, just step in.

If you buy some for the kid, get some for you too! I would reccomend Osiris or DC Shoe Co.

Love? Overrated. Biochemically no different from eating large quantities of chocolate.

Polish my bleedin' dog, eh?! Is that some kind of New Age jargon?! Although, what I do need to go do is buy George Harrison's All Things Must Pass.

The first warm day of spring. When the leaves bud the grass is green, and everything smells new. (And the mosquitos aren't out yet)

the way a freshly bathed baby smells
the first yellow crocuses blooming up through the snow
the way the sun shines on water
the first time your child laughs
sunrise over Brice Canyon
the first time you look into the Grand Canyon
the sound of the surf pounding on a sleepy morning
the sound of a gentle rain on the roof
the smell of baking bread
