It's the excitement of the new puppy when I walk downstairs,
the crinkle of a fresh bag of tortilla chips as I pull it open for a late night snack,
finding a fresh pot of coffee waiting in the kitchen,
3 a.m. McDonald's runs with my best friend,
painting furniture on the front porch with the last city skyline stencil left at Michael's (and I got it on sale),
the way my cat falls asleep curled up against my back,
the perfect song suggestion on my Discover Weekly playlist,
starting to write in a brand new composition book,
the smell of freshly-printed newspapers,
the hope on my mother's face as I say for the first time in weeks that I like my life right now
