I’ll have to settle on some favorite songs, first, I suppose. We’re probably going to have to stick with “100 Favorite for Now”, but…things change, lists should change with them, right?

How I did it: I was at the grocery store on a busy Saturday (the day before Mother's day, as a matter of fact) and in the check out line I saw a woman with two full carts and four small, very unhappy children. I offered to help her out to the car. She accepted and so I went. She tried to pay me afterwards, but I told her to just have a happy Mother's Day. Read how I did it…
This is almost entirely a comfort zone thing for me. I’ve never been happy enough with the way I look to consider it. In the back of my head, though, I’ve always wanted to do this—sober. A sort of defiant way to flip off the world and be happy with myself.
I’m still in college right now, but already I have student loans. I work full time, too, but it’s not quite enough. Every month that I can, I set aside a little bit to pay back on my quarterly interest statements. It’s not a lot, but it’s something. Everyone has to start somewhere, right?
