8. I’m grateful that despite the shitty things that happen in my life, I can still find comfort.

1. I’m grateful (more than grateful) that circumstances have allowed me to be only a part-time student this semester.

2. I’m grateful that immediately following my first class of this semester, I said to myself, “Well now, that wasn’t so bad.”

3. I’m grateful that I woke up cold this morning. Infinitely better than waking up too hot, which has been happening all summer. Fall is being ushered in.

4. I’m grateful that I opted for a ‘general’ parking permit this year.

5. I’m grateful that my dad’s dog Spud has a new home where he’ll get more love.

1. I’m grateful for Dance Party Wednesdays, especially after missing a few.

2. I’m grateful for an unexpected day off tomorrow.

3. I’m grateful that the new schedule at work still keeps me at a good number of hours. Close to 40!

4. I’m grateful for a good laugh when my roommate picked up a picture of me in my tee ball uniform as a six year old and asked if it was my brother.

5. I’m grateful for where I live.

3. I’m grateful for the silence that allows me intimate conversations with myself while working.

4. I’m grateful for my new bed sheets.

5. I’m grateful for long showers that wash away so much.

Such luck I have, with computers. Mine ended up with a gratuitous amount of viruses and, again, was out of commission for a week and a half.

1. I’m grateful that even though that new love interest in my life was, come to find out, stringing me along for a while, at least he was honest eventually.

5. I’m grateful for the coast.

6. I’m grateful for Bon Iver and getting tears out of my system.

7. I’m grateful that I decided to be a part-time student this semester, instead of full-time. The last few semesters have been rough, to say the least, so hopefully I will do better with less on my plate. I know it’s pathetic, but I think I’m just not as well-equipped to handle many things at once as some people are.

8. I’m grateful that my parents are okay with it.

9. I’m grateful that my roommates cleaned the kitchen while I was away. Infinitely grateful.

10. I’m grateful that I didn’t actually get all the tears out. Unfortunately, it’s comfortably familiar to cry so much.

11. I’m grateful that my brother moved to Portland. I miss him too much already (he moved the day before yesterday) but I think he needs this and I could not be more happy for him.

12. I’m grateful that Greg made an effort to befriend me again.

13. I’m grateful that I have so many bottle caps saved for my coffee table mosaic project. Now to find a coffee table.

14. I’m grateful that I can see a rut coming, and that hopefully this foresight will keep me from falling into it. Last year taught me enough.

15. I’m grateful to be here.
