Care packages

Happiness is...

Care packages. I can handle anything else that comes up this week, because I've got love from my friends. Booya.

Included:
- Bath salts
- Candy
- Journal
- Magnets
- Wall hanging
- Blank notes
- Gift cards

Let's see... what could make it better? Oh yeah, if I had all my friends in that box too. But for now, I'll take it.

Halloween Sales

Happiness is...

Halloween candy sales. They mean chocolate overloads and afternoons nibbling on things made of processed sugar and corn starch. That's right, world. I have a weakness for candy corn. I love the thought of spreading the joy when it comes to trick or treating, and I love the idea of being someone besides me, just for a night!

It also means holiday season is approaching! The way retail goes Halloween stuff is on sale late September, Thanksgiving stuff is on the shelves the morning after Halloween, and Christmas is in full swing just hours after Thanksgiving, if not before (for the record, I do not like black Friday). I will be celebrating something until the end of the year now! AND even when January rolls around, it'll be just anticipation for another (semi) eventful Birthday! I'm ashamed to say that I am one of those people who is very forward thinking, but this is the perfect time of the year to embrace that fact. Welcome Halloween :)

Candy

Happiness is...

The residue in the back of your mouth after a really good candy. Disclaimer: 9 out of 10 dentists would not agree... but I can't help reveling in the leftover tangy goodness that hangs out in the crevices of my molars after a good bite.

They made candy so you could savor it anyway. I'm not cheating by holding it in the deeper parts of my teeth. It's no surprise that I want to hold onto it long after the sugar melts.

After a couple drinks of water and another 5 minutes of work, my tongue automatically flicks to the back of my mouth to get the dregs of those sweets. Lollipops, Starburst, Hot Tamales, Chocolate. Yum, chocolate.

p.s. Guess what I gave up for lent.
Waa Waa.
