...one list to rule them all..

I thought I would write one list a week reflecting my mood and general doings of that past week, but then I thougt to myself: why should I bother writing one list a week?!? I mean I am after trying to cut down on anal retentive behaviour, especially of the systematic kind. And so I concluded that the one-list-a-week-idea was a dumb fucking idea, as a matter of fact it wouldprobably rate fairly high on the "a-good-idea-at-the-time" list, especially since I am generally to lazy to keep such an ambitious project going...but enough of that...
So I decided to make one list, the mother of lists, the one definite systematixation, a magnificent glorious list of my all round ten favorite things (in no particular order by the way):

- The tinkeling sound of small unidentified objects being sucked into the vacuum cleaner

- Fresh bedsheets

- The smell of freshly baked white bread

- A pint of Hoegarden

- The title sequence of the French film "Delicatessen"

- My iPod

- The crispy feel of freshly washed jeans

- The etheral light at four a'clock in the morning during summer in Norway

- Feeling my neurons connect as my brain makes a new, significant intellectual discovery

- Seeing the beatiful innocent face of my girlfreind when she sleeps

so there it is...

Hmmmm...I'm actually a big fan of lists. Keeping the amount to ten things is also wise. I wanna try:

1)Meeting friends and laughing at the completely absurd and tragic things life offers us, such as religion, politics and disaster.

2) Sitting in a car or buss and letting my thoughts drift away freely with no with no sense of order or pressure of pursuing a final outcome

3) My bed

4) Seeing the seeds from the herbs I've planted come to life.

5) Finding music that fills my soul and body with explosive positive energy

6) Questioning things that are always taken for granted.

7) Having the time to have several cups of coffee and reading several newspapers in the morning.

8) Accidentaly stumbling on to people, films and books that introduce new sources of inspiration.

9) Walking in Bergen early in the morning on a sunny day

10) Sitting at airport bars and guessing the life story of people passing by

Just wanted you to know that I stole the name 'headspace' for the name of my new place in The Sims Online!
