In fact, I&#39;m very healthy. Maybe that is a better bullet point to be appreciated.<\/p>\n<p>I&#39;ve met all of the goals I had as a child. That has been terrifying me lately but still something to spend a moment thinking how amazing that is and how grateful I am that I&#39;m here. I just need new goals. Maybe next year I&#39;ll be appreciative of them.<\/p>\n<p>I have a job that I usually like (and that I&#39;m good at)  even if I&#39;m a bit bored with the mechanics right now. I know it will get better and I have the freedom (if not quite the gumption yet) to change what I want to change.<\/p>\n<p>This evening, I&#39;m getting my toes painted with little pictures while hanging out with a good friend. There are lots of little pieces in there that I&#39;m thankful for but let&#39;s keep it wrapped up as a bigger pedicure metaphor.<\/p>\n<p>Plenty to eat and warm. I know how very lucky I am. Also, hot showers fits under this point. As does cold champagne. And the utter ridiculousness of stores devoted to cupcakes.<\/p>\n<p>Hiking at Wilder ranch, on the beach and the cliffs above the beach, on T-day will be 70F and clear as a bell. Not to mention completely empty. Except for me, him, and a few friends.<\/p>\n<p>Cephlapods.<\/p>\n<div class=\"separator\" style=\"clear: both; text-align: none;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/logicalelegance.com\/journey\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/wpid-Photo-Oct-7-2012-648-PM.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/logicalelegance.com\/journey\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/wpid-Photo-Oct-7-2012-648-PM.jpg\" id=\"blogsy-1353556336738.4338\" class=\"alignnone\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"484\"><\/a><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This morning I only needed to wave my fingers like a composer to be sung awake.
