Simply Summer.

Summer always makes you appreciate the simple things in life:

1. The unbelievable beauty of a perfect peach, the kind where it is so incredibly ripe that you don't even mind when tiny bits get stuck in your teeth. It's worth it. 

2. 21-minute episodes of Arrested Development. They are like Reese's miniatures--always leave you wanting more, but even one by itself is delicious. 

3. Crafts. Just...crafts. 

4. A sun shower on an afternoon of unbearable humidity.

5. A good indoor fan.

6. Philadelphia consignment shops and the dollhouse-flawlessness of Society Hill houses. 

7. The life of my dog reflects my own attitudes and habits--there is a LOT of lying around on any available surface (if only 3 inches of the couch are available, I will somehow find a way to fit into it). I like getting my belly rubbed. My ears can't help but perk up at the sound of someone walking in the door. Smoked meat?--yes please. And if you put the TV on, I will undoubtedly watch it...or at least look in its general direction.

8. Wawa coffee.

9. The hilarious/brilliant/ridiculous combination of voices in Miyazaki's new movie:
-Cate Blanchett
-Miley Cyrus' younger sister
-Tina Fey
-the Jonas Brothers' younger sibling
-Lily Tomlin
-Liam Neeson

Oh, and of course Cloris Leachman. NATURALLY.
