Swoon.

Besides the bright spots I detailed the other day, the following discoveries have made me swoon in the past few months:

• How I Met Your Mother (Legen…wait for it…dary!)
• Hiking around Chautauqua and NCAR in Boulder (with the focus on fitness instead of photography).
• The Eternal Struggle (of writers like me).
• Giraffe as spirit animal.
• Kate Winslet, especially in Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (but never Titanic).
• Strength training (which as I detailed here, does not have to mean big huge weights).
• Marcus Sakey crime novels (set in Chicago, so well, of course.)
• Woman Descending the Staircase.
• Love and Other Drugs (too much skin and sex? whatever!)
