little joys this week.

rain.

because cause i get to bust out this little number.

its made of complete plastic. {yeah, that squeaking was me} and its same jacket i wore to play in the puddles as a child!

"its big bird, its a shooting star.. no it's just chelsea!"

and it has this flower power design inside.

which has got me thinking... whats the 16th greatest invention?? REVERSIBLE CLOTHES!! so i'm thinking it's a must to turn this bad boy inside out for may.

the watch instantly section on netflix.

its the only section i use because i simply cannot plan out when i want to watch something. {yeah i want to want food inc. today but in two days i'll probably be eating taco bell and will not want to see whats going on behind the scenes in the food industry. and yes i finally watched harry and sally and fell in love with it but in two days when i get my heart broken i don't want to get it in the mail!} plus all three seasons of arrested development are now all available! so double score!

trolley rides.

my license-less, car-less self is quickly transformed into a eco-friendly, earth-loving, granola-eating gal! plus they are free and since i've got 79 cents to my name {oh hey father, are you reading this...}

having this most hysterical snl skit bookmarked so i can play it whenever i need a good laugh. {kristen wiig kills me every time. the day she leaves snl, the sun will refuse to rise and flowers will cry}

after a week of sweating every ounce of water from my body while working it out on the stairmaster 3000, i triumphantly added ten minutes and 2 levels with ease this week.

"i'm... urh.. hmph... fine... hhh. errrg... i pr.. hhh.. promise"

"911. code 7. we've got a girl down by the stairmasters"

enjoying my last tea and coffee cake combo for breakfast.

{time to bring on the fruit or bake a another batch? haven't decided yet!}

reading 1000 awesome things whenever i have free time. i can't help but be filled with joy every time i read one. i walk with a little extra pep and smile a little grander. its simply a delight to read.

#538 laughing so hard you cry.

#543 that separate compartment in your stomach for dessert.

#990 picking up a q and a u at the same time in scrabble.

#679 sneaking in cheaper candy to the movie theater.

#650 the first couple hours of a road trip.

#520 when a baby falls asleep on you.

#554 staying in your pajamas all day.

friendship bracelets in the mail from aussie bff alyssa.

we chat about the little things, reveal our secrets, rant about real housewives, and have the longest emails going back in forth in the history of gmail. and now we are officially friends {since friendship bracelets are the new facebook friend request... haha}

talking in third person.

and when you find someone who loves it too, it's slightly addicting. {chelsea thinks all this studying for finals may be messing with her sanity. then she laughs and realizes after she lost her sanity a long time ago when she confessed her love for beiber.}

waking up right before my alarm usually goes off. then realizing i hadn't set my alarm... it was magic. and pure luck considering i had a final in an hour!

receiving THE cutest and most wonderful cards ever in the mail that tillie specially made with one of my favorite sex&the city quotes {oh carrie and her endless wisdom!} she included a little note that said does the girl look familiar? and as looked and saw it was me {with my always wild hair having the time of its life} my heart was immediately filled with joy! these are seriously the most incredible cards i have ever seen. while i can't wait to send them, i am shamelessly keeping one for myself. thank you so much tillie for making MONTH!!

finding out free BAGEL AND SCHMEAR days at einsten bros are here again! {and it started on the 26th so i better get a move on. those bagels don't eat themselves!}

i hope your day is filled with little joys!
