- Almost everything awakens my lazy side.
- Frigid air and ridiculous windshield speeds, coupled with a bed that allows me to look at the snow while not actually experiencing it.
- Summer
- The Sims
- New books from the library
- Dogs lying on the floor. No one can resist lying next to/petting a dog lying on the floor.
Lust I love a man that:
- Has a good sense of humor, maybe even a slightly off-kilter one like me. One that isn't going to scrunch up his nose when I do strange dances on public transportation/do my impression of British talk show hosts

- Isn't easily embarassed
- Is just as comfortable being at foreign film as he is at a baseball game
- Treats waiters/teachers/public service workers/senior citizens with respect
- Never uses derogatory slang
- Wears glasses
- Is traditional without being conservative (i.e. he writes thank you's, holds open doors, says please and thank you etc.)
