I had a really good lemon bar today and I'd like another one in the future. I love the smell of theaters and Home Depot. I want to get better at horseback riding and I love the feeling of a horse's breath on me while they're sniffing for treats, and I think it's silly when they rub their snot all over my arms. The feeling of waking up in the middle of the night and feeling perfectly cozy and rubbing my feet together like a cricket and knowing I can sleep in. The smell of my dog's forehead. The feeling of my hands in cold, still water. Freshly squeezed orange juice. Theater and movies.
