Here are my three good things for today:
1. NPR has published their list of the top 100 science fiction/fantasy books of all time. I shall work through them one by one (skipping all the ones I've read already, of course) and be a happy camper.
2. At work, I received an entertaining email from a very enthusiastic paralegal who clearly loves her job. Exclamation points! Smiley faces! Even a "pretty please." It all left me feeling a bit exhausted, really. But it was a nice change from the boring ones.*
3. I had hummus for dinner. Hummus is yummus.
What are your three good things?
*And vastly preferable to the downright nasty ones that I've seen. Fortunately, I have yet to be on the receiving end of one of those, which is a good thing because it would probably look really unprofessional if I cried at my desk. I don't do well when people are angry with me. It's why I've never attempted to be a waitress. I have no doubt that I would be stupendous—I'm a very nice person and I have an excellent memory, but the first time that someone was unhappy with their meal and took it out on me, I would collapse in on myself like a dying star.
1. I like hummus.

Britin: I think the obvious next step is for you and I to get together and have a hummus party.
