Besides some of the obvious, like family and friends...
1. Prayer. Maybe I'm just a chatterbox, but I have to be able to talk to God. About everything.
2. Color. Forget 50 Shades of Grey (which I haven't read, for obvious reasons), my parents can decorate everything in 50 Shades of Beige. But not me. I. Have. To. Have. Color. Bright jewel tones, please. I check out books on flower arranging (though I've never tried it) just for the pictures and color.
3. New experiences and places. It can be exotic as Paris or as simple as last week--going to Baskin Robbins and ordering a Grape Sherbet waffle cone.
4. Learning about new things, places, and people. About the only books I read or TV I watch these days are things that show you how to do something (even if I never intend to knit that scarf) or places I only wish I could be (Hello Bavaria!)
5. Deep conversations with someone I feel comfortable with. Tough to find, but worth every second of time invested into the relationship.
And sorry, just to add this in as a Bonus: Words of Affirmation, whether those I hear or those I give, and always out of sincerity only, please.

This reminds me of that "Assuming there aren't any people in danger, if your house were on fire what would you save" question. I spent quite a while last year trying to come up with an answer. I couldn't. There were some things I'd like to keep, but nothing really stood out, no matter how I looked at it. In terms of money, time, sentiment, practicality... everything seemed so... unnecessary. I'd probably feel a little differently if my house actually burned down though.

I was so just about to fake post as you and most likely stick my foot in my mouth by mentioning Mia and students and then probably throw in a Buffy reference or two. But then I saw the post about the f-bomb and was glad I waited. Sooooo really this post is useless. Yep. I'll just be over here...not sleeping.

-My phone. Because....it's my phone and I need it.
-My computer. That's where I read blogs, the news, communicate with family & friends in Mexico, listen to music, and play games.
-My Bible. Sometimes I wonder what would I do if I was stranded in a lonely island without a Bible. Hopefully I could remember what it says, but having it with me would be really really helpful.
-People. Especially people with whom I can have good conversations. Though I like having time for myself, even for a few days and although sometimes I'm tired of some annoying humans...I will need them eventually.
-A good book, but not just a book but a book that will captivate you from page one to the last page, to the point where you wish it would never have an end. Nothing like a good story

I think both the Bible and books can be listed under the same dot-point.
