Been making this list for more years than I can count.

Five things that are good about me:
1. I am willing to work hard at making myself a better person.
2. I am loyal.
3. I am smart.
4. I am flexible (in more ways than one).
5. I am accepting of others.

Five things I'm grateful for:
1. Usenet.
2. Equanimity.
3. That I'm employed.
4. My mother.
5. The relative ease of my (white, middle-classed, privileged) life.

Five people or animals who love me without reservation:
1. My niblings (that's twelve right there)
2. Tommy the cat
3. Mom
4.&5. (see #1)

Five times in recent memory when I was happy/joyful/contented:
1. When I awoke just knowing how my YA novel would end.
2. When I figured out how to use the LJ client from work without installing it on the hard drive.
3. When I met with Charles yesterday and he and I spent an exhilarating hour trashing the commodification of queers that masquerades as San Diego Pride.
4. When mom handed me the guitar she bought for me at a yard sale because she felt bad that mine had been stolen.
5. The entire time I was listening to "Steady Pull" yesterday.

Five things I'm good at:
1. Knowing what I need to get better at.
2. Acknowledging when someone else is right.
3. Pushing my boundaries.
4. Crochet.
5. Sex.

Miscellany

Just spent all day planning September's womboink, and boy are my arms tired. Well, my brain is tired, anyway. I am so excited about seeing wombabes (especially certain ones), but just thinking about it can exhaust me sometimes.

Also, people have started to donate to the womboink helpful in an especially generous manner, and you can't beat that.

Cute-poet-chick and I have stopped going to poetry readings altogether, but I miss them, so I'm going tonight, even if she doesn't feel like it. This necessitates a nap when I get home. Let's hope I can force myself to do the nap thing; it's not my usual style.

Today, I am a writer. Just wanted to remind myself of that.
