it's friday and i love a list (august break version)

i would guess that post a friday post on a saturday would be the sort of thing i could do on an august break. 

favorite driving songs:
1.  take it easy - the eagles
2.  tiny dancer - elton john
3.  lunatic fringe - red ryder
4.  radar love - golden earring
5.  boys of summer - don henley

things i love about being on the road:
1. the usatoday crossword
2.  hot waffles on the breakfast bar
3. new people, places & things
4.  king bed & four pillows

things i love about coming home:
1.  the dogs greeting me at the door
2.  sleeping in my bed
3.  the box fan
4.  not living out of a suitcase

**************************************************************************
today on my ipod - broken (angie aparo), lonesome town (rick nelson), you're beautiful (james blunt), melissa (allman brothers), amber (311), your winter (sister hazel), every little she does is magic (the police)

    Radar Love!!!!!! One of the best songs ever. Good for singing at the top of one's lungs. You rock, Char. xoxo

    no matter how great it is away - there's nothing better than coming home and sleeping in your own comfy bed

    mmmmmmmmmm waffles.
    I can almost smell them.

    It's been a long time since I've had waffles...I think this is going to develop into one of those cravings that won't go away until I do something about it.
