On Hearing Things

The best, prettiest, funnest, most emotion-evoking sounds around. To me, anyway.

• giggles
• Australian accents
• most Bon Jovi music
• heat kicking on in the house
• keychains
• a Mustang engine revving
• Gene Kelly's tap dancing
• "Claire de Lune"
• puffy golden prom dress
• dangly earrings
• Dad chopping wood out back
• any salon
• the music on A Series of Unfortunate Events
• "Such Great Heights"
• GPS voices
• Wal-Mart greeters
• theme song of "The Andy Griffith Show"
• my mother singing show tunes
• "Amazing Grace" on bagpipes
• heels clicking on linoleum
• "Stereo Love." Seriously, accordian music!
• Grandpa
• snow
