Things you love!
Keeping up with the keeping of up! What I love?
Fresh made coffee, first thing in the morning, mmm I go through a lot of coffee. Picking up a newspaper on my way to lunch and reading the newspaper as I am eating and or waiting for it.
I love cookies, I grab a cup of tea around 2 or 3 pm and get some cookies out of the cupboard in my cubical and dunk it in the tea before I take a bite.
I now realize most of the things I love are associated with food. I like going out to eat with friends but I get restless if we have to sit for too long.
I like movies although not as much as I use too, I am finding them to be a little slower than in the past. I want a lot sensory input, lots of twist and turns.
I like listening to great music, especially in the car, although lately I have been enjoying listening to radio, American politics.
I love love reading, but not books especially novels.Ii like reading articles, especially blogs. The personal the better. I love being alone. Its so peaceful.
I like looking at pretty woman, but I don’t enjoy talking to them as much as I use to. I like talking to social, funny, freindly woman more than a gorgeous mannequin. I like flirting but not as much as I use to.
I love love love email communication, I really hate phone calls that last too long with no point.

I love animals - I have two cats that I would die for. I like dogs more still. While the furry, cuddly, cute, friendly, loyal kind of animal is the best I would surely settle for any of the rest.
I love working out - I live for the pump. If I wouldn’t look like a complete freak, I’d walk around everywhere with no shirt and oil all over my muscles. I think my six pack is sexier than your girl’s ass.
I love Pot - I smoke everyday, at least once. I think about getting high as much as I do about sex. My field of dreams is endless marijuana plants as far as the eye can see.

I love
To gather sipping coffee
Freshly roasted and brewed
Flavored with tenadam
Flowers in their bloom
The sun seeping through me
Ethiopia, even with its shattered hopes, or its despotic laws,despite its tragedies
The fragrance of frankincense
The delicate flavor of cardamom
The orange sun in the horizon
Leaving its trail like a prism
The lakes with refracting bubbles
The grassy mountain covers
The natural hot spring in winters
Cheap speakers in tin kiosks
Emitting gritty krar songs
On my cheeks three loving kisses
To welcome my every presence
Nazret’s succulent juices
Made with lime and passion fruit
The house I grew up in
The warm breeze on my bare skin
The dew drops on my fingertip
The firewood in my nostrils
The old Coka bottles
The café macciato
The lines for cake at Enricho
The lebas at Merkato
The twisted azmari with masinko
The rocky road all the way to Langano
The net to keep out the mosquitoes
I love the..love that doesn’t leave you forlorn
Love not on a time borrowed
Love that hurts to let go
The love and the sorrow.
Geez! I feel so outperformed.
Guess what?
