GRATITUDE
Favorite Things Right Now #3
Winter 2023–2024
This is my third post in a series inspired by writer Laura Tremaine, who runs this feature on her podcast, 10 Things to Tell You. I use it as a seasonal exercise in gratitude for the top 10 things in my life. It’s a way for me to mark my current chapter and reflect upon some of its highlights.
This form of reflection is pretty different from my usual fare. Rather than how experiences make me feel, these are observations about what I’m enjoying at the moment. They’re defining aspects of this season of my life.
(I try to time these posts with the seasons of the year. Now that it’s officially spring, here’s what I was enjoying over the winter!)

01—Ours Is Chrome by Superheaven
This is the album I’m playing at least once a day. Even though it’s from 2015, it has a ’90s aesthetic that I appreciate. “Leach” and “Downswing” are some tracks I find myself repeating, but it’s hard to pick a favorite. The riffs and melodies of “Gushin’ Blood” are also fun to jam out…
