In the spirit of Nora Ephron

The great writer, director, and film producer, Nora Ephron, died yesterday at the age of 71.  To close her book titled I Remember Nothing: And Other Reflections she created a list of the things she would and would not miss.  So in the spirit of Nora Ephron, I offer this list of things I will and will not miss.

automobiles

100+ degree heat in the summer

Sarah Palin

reality TV

the loose postcard-sized paper stuck inside magazines

online banking

insurance companies

text messages

robocalls

galas

pecan trees

airport security

 

Things I will miss:

family

friends

my dogs

dogs in general

good, cheap TexMex

walks by the lake

my bed

giggling

tea

okra

good conversation

reading

reading the NY Times

Robert Browning poetry

learning
