Hi folks! DC
Juris here. I'll be your guest host for today. For those of you who don't know
me, I'm a transgender fella who writes GLBTQ and heterosexual romance, but
mostly m/m.
Today, I wanted
to talk about things that make me smile. They're not big things, and maybe some
of them are kooky, but they're my sanity savers.
Touching soft
fabrics in a store. I admit it – I can't walk down a blanket aisle without
touching all the blankets. I grin like an idiot when my fingers brush chenille
or velvet, and fleece makes me giggle.
The dark of the
sky and the gusts of the wind before a storm. There is something magical there,
sitting with the fury of nature, the expectation of what's to come sizzling on
your skin.
Rainbows. Yeah,
I get the science behind them, but to me, they're magic. I can't tell you how
many times Hubby has indulged me by driving around trying to find the end, or
the best spot to get a picture. And the first time I saw a double rainbow, I
freaked out just as much as the YouTube guy. LOL (If you don't get the
reference, head over to YouTube and search for "double rainbow guy
original". Totally worth it.)
Certain animals,
like turtles, butterflies, snails, and ladybugs. My mother used to say that if
you found a ladybug on the hem of your dress, you'd have good luck. I didn't
wear dresses all that often, but I love these little bugs.
Garden gnomes.
Who doesn’t love garden gnomes? They're so happy and whimsical. I'd have a
whole herd of them if I had space.
Mushrooms. Real
ones, fake ones – I just love mushrooms. At one point in our old house, my
entire kitchen was done in retro mushrooms. Nowadays it's a little more toned
down, but my current décor does include a collection of mushroom postage stamps
from around the world, which Hubby mounted and framed for me.
But enough about my favorite things - what are yours?
