Hearing the first strains of "Thunder Road," and then the entire song with Bruce singing live.

A perfectly made gin and tonic, with just the right amount of double lime.

Making breakfast or going out for breakfast with the SO.

Surfing the Internets and posting on SJ and other message boards while I look out my window at the Detroit River and Canada.

Road trips, anywhere.

Great Thai food.

Thanks for mentioning me, babes but I'm aghast at your priorities. I got beat out by Roast Chicken???

 

This was not a top ten list. It was a list.

And you got mentioned THREE times.

Grumpy or what?

 

Pepperoni pizza

Coming home from dinner and seeing the queen has made one of my favorite meals.

When my son crawls on my lap while I'm watching a game and he'll sit there and watch it with me, even if it's just for a few minutes

Diet Coke from the fountain

Blasting music in my car. Noboby to tell me to turn it down or changed the station.

Playing Guitar Hero with either of the princesses.

Movie popcorn

 

Sorry, dear. Guess I got confused by the fact that they were NUMBERED FROM ONE TO TEN!

 

1. Strawberry rhubarb pie. I savored this dessert for the first time last night. The sweet and the sour...ooohhhhh.....
2. My 6'6 Viking boyfriend. Everything has changed. Everything.
3. Fishing in the bay at 6am. The sound of the water slapping against the kayak paddles. The fight of the red drum against the line.
4. Fishing in the bay at 10p. In spooky darkness. Bright moon overhead adding to the eeriness. Not knowing what the hell is going to surface when you're reeling it in...
5. True Blood
6. Absurd humor
7. Losing one's sensibilities
8. Dark bars with characters of a suspect nature
9. Striding purposefully through an airport
10. The sight of my pug cocking his head in bewilderment

Um, numbering things on a list does not necessarily mean I'm ranking the items on the list--I'm not David Letterman.
