Because Ariane has had a couple of bad days recently and mustered up the nerve to post her five good things, I think I need to take a turn and do the same. Since my camera was stolen a few days ago, I’ve been focusing a lot on the negative crap in my life, and it really doesn’t help that I caught some godawful stomach bug that kept me in the house for the past week. Oh hell, always look at the bright side of life:

1. It’s a beautiful Saturday, sunny and warm, which means I can go out and use my Holga today since the film I put in there is 200 ISO. Sun!

2. Kyle is hosting a barbeque at his place tonight. Man make FIRE.

2a. I think I’m pretty much over my stomach thing, which means I can partake of the delicious food at Man make FIRE. I also intend to eat potato salad, which I haven’t done in months, and normally find gross and obscenely bad-for-you. But in the context of BBQ’s I think that potato salad is a necessary evil and I will eat it and I will enjoy it, much as I did the in-and-out burger on my last trip to San Francisco.

3. I actually don’t mind the taste of pepto bismol and anything that settles the stomach is fine by me.

4. New shoes are looking like they’re actually on the horizon at some point this summer, which is rad if you’ve caught a gander at my kicks lately.

5. I’m drinking more water than usual, and less soda. Anyone who knows me knows that the one habit I’ve never been able to break from living on the East Coast is my sugarwater addiction. So this is looking up. Woo!

6. Six good things, because I was just reminded of how awesome Wall-E was. It really was good. You have to go see it. Woo!
