Yep, me too.

This is a thankful time of year, and I feel inclined to add my own thoughts.

I'm thankful for...

  • Mom & Dad for letting me bunk with them for a few months whilst I figure out where I want to be and what I want to do with my life.
  • My co-workers - especially the ones motivating me to get my booty in gear and do P90X!
  • My friends from the ward - especially Katy for motivating me to do the triathlon and to keep reaching for things I never thought I'd do physically (Santa Run comin' up!)
  • My nephews for thinking I'm cool and fun, even when I don't feel it.
  • The Bombay House. If you've been there, you know what I'm talkin' 'bout.
  • My brother Conn for making me feel oh-so youthful by still calling me Erbear.
  • My Slanket.
  • Melanee, for being one of the top roommates/landlords E-VAH! I thank you for the talks, the laughs, and the understanding. I miss you already.
  • Single life.
  • The hope of non-single life.
  • The hope of family life.
  • Five On The Fly.
  • The friends who come to shady sports bars and endure the drunks and hoochie dancers to support Five On The Fly. I thank you all, a lot.
  • My Bombay friends. You know who you are.
  • The discovery/introduction of new music that still moves and creates new memories for me.
  • Falling for someone and getting my heart broken, but thankful to know that I can fall in the first place - difficult as it may be for it to end.
  • The hope that I won't get my heart broken, but that I may actually fall in love and be loved in return.
  • Christmas lights.
  • Cheesy Christmas music - except for 'Christmas Shoes'. I really can't stand that song.
  • Having brothers and sisters to just hang with.
  • H.F. - especially H.F.

The list shall go on another time. I'm thankful for all of you that even take a peek at my wee blog.

I love your 'wee blog'...and I love you, too, my Bombay-long time since 5th grade-kiddie corner friend.

Your list elicits thought, dear Erin. You are a keeper.

PS I think you are mega disciplined, Santa Run, AND P90X (er whatever) every morning. You are one tough chic. I applaud you.

Love the list. I agree with the "Christmas Shoes" song.

Oh Good Erin-
How I love you! Thank you for being just you friend. You are a breath of fresh air in a world that smells like dog poop.

Aww, miss you too Erbear!

I truly miss the Bombay House and their Veg Coconut Kurma w/ Peshwari Naan!

You hate Christmas Shoes? It didn't make you choke up at all the first time you heard it? Man, I'm a sucker for those lyrics every time.
