I'm thankful that when my car did not start when I was attempting to leave campus that I did not have to be anywhere immediately, that it was over 20 degrees outside, that when I reached inside my trunk for jumper cables, another soul was in the right place at the right time. I must have had a furrowed brow I was unaware of because he just walked right over and asked if my car was having trouble, proceeded to pull his truck over next to mine, and walk me through the jump-start process. I am fortunate that I have never had to jump my little Civic before and that it has never given me any trouble, and I am so thankful that if the whole car-not-starting lesson had to happen, it happened the way it did.
I'm thankful for the energy to make it through a double Zumba class day even if it means I did not have the willpower to resist my stash of dark chocolate-covered almonds.
I'm thankful for snow.
I'm thankful for a snapshot of what a couple of my friends are learning in a masculinity in Christianity class and mulling over theories of why we were created as gendered beings while our God and our souls are genderless.
I'm thankful for a Hustle lesson at Social Dance Club and following without falling on my face.
I'm thankful for the opportunity to consider going to Jason Gray's free concert on Monday at the Mall of America, especially because I can just rock out to his tunes in the meantime, especially these!

Aaaaand I'm thankful for autosave on Blogger so that my draft still existed after Firefox froze. While technology can complicate life sometimes, appreciating what we have and not taking it for granted is a good thing to practice. On that note, I bid you all goodnight from the blogosphere!
