I am grateful for a shmozzle that was presented and resolved all in the space of one morning; also to my friend Berry who introduced shmozzle into my lexicon.

I am grateful for help from Julie with said shmozzle.

I am grateful for time spent painting in the lobby of the Hotel Grand Pacific today.

I am grateful for date night; Julie and I went to see Mission Impossible 3, which was fast enough that I didn’t notice most of the gaping plot holes until after the fact.
