I've got about fifteen minutes before my next student shows up for goal meetings so here is the superficial version of ten things I cannot live without. This being the superficial version, these are mostly material items, not things of real importance like the Bible, my friends, family, etc.
9. Hulu/surfthechannel/megavideo/etc: Not having a TV anymore, these keep me firmly connected into the world of television. And on the plus side, no commercials or at least super minimal commercials).
8. Nutcracker tea: How I survived the winters, even in Southern California, without this blessing from heaven, I have no idea. It really is like a ballet in a cup. And you can quote me on that quote.
7. My lappy-top: I have had my Macbook for the last two and a half years and I seriously love it. It can do no wrong, usually. even when it sometimes freezes weirdly, it starts back up in about one minute. It has never failed me (hope I don't jinx anything....)
6. Public transportation: This leaves me at a bit of a disadvantage living in Idaho and Orange County. With public transportation, you tend to be safer (nobody wants to mess with a bus/train/coach/etc.), you can read, listen to music without being distracted, sleep, relax, you don't have to worry about hitting small children, etc. I hereby state that public transportation needs to be implemented in all cities.
5. My ipod: I have the most eclectic taste in music. I often crave very specific types of music/songs that the radio cannot provide. Having it all in one place on my ipod is perfect. I can overload it up and not take up room on my computer harddrive. I can listen to books or CD, I can watch movies, I can listen to Baddiel and Skinner or the RSC. I can even listen to these new Couch to 5K podcasts that I just downloaded. Who knows what will come of this but I don't know where I'd be without my ipod.
4. N.Y.C. Brand lip plumper lip gloss. I love this stuff and I love the way that my lips feel when I put on the lip gloss. Except that one time where I think I may have inadvertently swallowed some and my throat felt really weird. This also goes for my Burts Bees chapstick.
2. Saint Chapelle Special Harvest wine. Only available in Idaho. Delicious and good with everything.
1. My Liverpool fleece blanket: So soft, so warm, perfect for cuddling with a book, special harvest wine, my ipod, on public transportation, with my laptop, watching Hulu or Supernatural. It makes my world a better place.
What are your ten things?
10. My supernatural DVDs: My current (and for the past few years) favorite show. I love Sam and Dean. I love Jared Padalecki and Jensen Ackles. I love Misha Collins and Jim Beaver and Jeffrey Dean Morgan. I LOVE the Impala. I love the classic rock. I love the classic episodes. I love the Ghostfacers. I love the urban legends. I do not love the tension between Sam and Dean but more on that later. Thank goodness for DVDs.

3. My Converse. Any type of converse but my favorites right now are my classic blacks and of course, my Rosie the Riveters. Always comfortable, go with everything and good soles to keep the feet warm.
