My first inclination when Megan requested that I write a list of things I’m grateful for was to make a list of things, and then explain why I’m grateful for them. I know this is no shock to any of you – get over it. I like to use my words and feel that I’m understood.

That said, I’ve decided to keep it simple.

Things I am grateful for:

Words
The darkness
Sight
Rock Band 2
Poker Night
Megan going to bed at the same time as me
Sweet Potato Casserole
Lightly-killed filet mignon

Limoncello
Alphabets

Whole milk
Single bean chocolate

Down comforters
Cold, gray rainy days

Dusty old boxes in the storage room with treasures from dad’s childhood
My Isuzu Rodeo

Cheese

That’s about it. I could go on for hours, so maybe I’ll post a “part 2″ soon…

Thanks, baby.
