Some months ago, I was having something of a bad some-months. I decided to tackle the problem by reminding myself of things that are not at all bad. I composed a list. The rules for the following list were that I could not be too specific (it would be thousands of entries long had I been), and could not be too general (in which case it would be hundreds of entries shorter).
Ashtree adopting the idea made me revisit mine recently (for a few additions, eg pinkberry. If you do not care much about my list, blame her. If you do, thank her, it was her idea to post highlights from it.
