Things I Miss

Zebra patterned bubble gum.

Dexter's Laboratory and Rugrats.

Benjamin Linus.

Eating desert without thinking about it.

Reading Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows for the first time.

My English 319 fiction workshop class.

Niles and Daphne.

Disneyland.

The smell of New York.

Being young enough to make my teddy bears age appropriate.

Staying home from school sick with a Jamba Juice and Animal Planet.

Being in high school plays.

There have been some good things and good experiences in my life. I'm grateful for them, I miss the ones that are gone, and hope and pray for more goodness in the future.

What do you miss?

  2. I miss my creative writing classes and my practicum class especially. I miss the ecstasy of writing full time. I miss being in the high school band. Now you have me feeling all sad.

  4. Friends and I are reliving Lost every Tuesday night because we missed it so much.

    Jack was right: "We have to go back!"

    my mom
    the smell of snow
    Pinkie and the Brain
    hearing my children joking around

  11. For sure on the whole "eating dessert without thinking about it thing."

    Another thing I miss - not having bills, having summers off, and being in college in general (recently graduated!).

    I miss my kids and grandkids.

    I miss a regular paycheck.

    My youth in a way.
