Top 5... 10... 15....

Kaitlin suggested a Top 5 Book list might be in order. I already have one going on in the lower left hand corner there, but I re-arrange it regularily. Taking it lightly? Yes. I don't believe in favourites really. I like the lists of things I really enjoy to be fluid, open-minded, diverse. Not that having favourites is bad... I often wish I could pick a favourite book or movie or song. Hell, I often wish I could pick an item off the menu at dinner, but I'm just not that kinda girl. I'm too sagittarius I guess.

I'm also too grumpy lately. Lack of sleep, lack of motivation and excess of PMS have turned me into a great big whining dickface. So, in the spirit of the Top 5 list, as well as changing my attitude, I will present my list of Things That Make Me Happy: revised, updated and in no particular order. For your sake, it will be severly reduced, as the original has several hundred entries.
