The Grace Experiment, Part 7

My weekly attempt to amaze and, incidentally, annoy you with 5 little things for which I'm feeling grateful.

1.  My little brother* actually buying his plane ticket to come see his object du lurking  me.  Turns out the whole arranging transport thing is a critical component to visiting someone halfway across the US.  I trust those of you with younger siblings can relate.
*Show of hands - who lives in southern California & wants to date a super-adorable, twenty-something military officer?  Also, am I writing this just because I know it would embarrass the life out of him?  


3.  This March J. Crew catalog, which I want to frame and cherish forever.  Reads more like a gorgeous photo album than a catalog, although I am of course covetous of most contents.

4.  A good dose of perspective.  Turns out my not being able to afford the J. Crew canon - or any of it, if we're being all factual and stuff - isn't the biggest problem going.  I know!

5.  Reveling in this early spring weather:

This photo? This photo is bliss! I want that kind of bliss! I'm not sure I want the whole 'dog responsibilty' part, but that bit of 'no worries, eh?' is fantastic!

So, she's not in Southern Cal but, I've got a freaking super cute friend in Texas (sure) who I'm trying to set up with someone. A super cute military officer sounds perfect.... Should I buy her a plane ticket to So. Cal?? Hmm...

I have no perspective when it comes to J. Crew. I'm just not capable of attaining it.

I think it's a sign that I ate too many Starburst jelly beans that the mere thought of Sprinkles made my teeth ache. :( Perhaps I've done too much damage and need to step away from the sugar?

My college/after-college boyfriend was stationed in San Diego while he was training at BUDS - I have many, many, many, many wonderful memories of the military officers of southern California.
