--My labradoofus. She makes me very happy, even when she smells like mud (i.e., 95% of the time).
--The clock tower bells. WSU has a clock tower (we call it the Eye of Sauron because it is lit in red neon) which chimes on the hour and plays a song every day at 5 o' clock. I've only ever been able to identify "Tradition" from the Fiddler on the Roof, but it makes me happy that I can hear it from my house. I keep meaning to find out who puts the songs together and ask them to post the playlist on the web somewhere.
--Renal physiology. It is very cool, and would probably be even cooler if I knew what the hell was going on (that's this weekend's project). My favorite thing about physiology is that it is so interesting, the class goes by quickly.
--Radiographs. So nifty, I mean, have you thought about it? You are looking inside the body. And it's like a jigsaw puzzle in there. And thanks, Dr. Mary, because now I know how to look at head x-rays and impress the bejeezus out of my colleagues (How can you tell it's a 4 year old horse?! Oohhhh...).
--This website. Any idea to be more happy is a good idea! I like being happy.
--Hatching plans for my apartment. I'm allowed to paint it (!!), and boy howdy do I have ambitions here.
--You guys. I am so lucky to have such a wonderful network of people around me! I appreciate each and every one of you and I would encourage you to visit Pullman (although you may want to wait until the weird chemical smell is out of my new cushy futon mattress).
--The hot chocolate at the Black Cypress restaurant downtown. If Indy and I are not quite enough, this hot chocolate will make the trip to Pullman worth your time.
--Procrastination. Today I saw a t-shirt reading "I have not yet begun to procrastinate" which I may need to own.
--This weirdo (Pumpkin Pi for Halloween; please note the clever stem):
