Some things I've been enjoying:

1. The Kite Runner, by Khaled Hosseini.
2. Fresh cherries and blueberries.
3. Cold Diet Mountain Dew, usually at 2:00 pm daily.
4. Living less than a mile from work.
5. The Tyra show ... because it's the only thing I can pick up worth watching on my lunch break.

Some things I haven't been enjoying:

1. August in Alabama.
2. Running in August in Alabama.
3. The fact that fresh cherries and blueberries are now ridiculously expensive.
4. One hundred and eighty-six dollar power bills.
5. Upstairs neighbors who are "heavy walkers." Or square dancers.

What about you?
