Awesome

Apologies for the radio silence on the blog for the past few days. I haven't been doing anything particularly exciting except for checking out the free public pool in my neighborhood. The Lahaina Aquatic Center is awesome. I swam so hard and for so long today I thought I was going to drown trying to climb out of the pool.

Since I haven't been doing anything very awesome lately (minus the swimming so hard I'm on the verge of drowning), I decided to share with you a link to 1000 Awesome Things. It's an ongoing list of really awesome things.

For example:

#449: Staying up so late that everything becomes funny.

#445: Digging a hole in your mashed potatoes and filling it up with gravy.

and one of my favorites:

#456: When your friend returns your book and they actually read it.

And if you're not psyched about reading awesome things online, never fear! You can read about awesome things in a book:

I flipped through the book at the store, and it's just as charming and detailed as the website (minus the great stock photography). Some of the awesome things are so ridiculously funny that I snort over my keyboard. And what makes a lot of these awesome things so awesome is they are immediately relatable. I'm sure you'll come across a few where your eyes and soul will light up with recognition.

Enjoy.
