Five Things that Don't Suck, Sunny Sunday Edition

1. getting up and out for a run despite the fact that my sleepy brain was trying to convince me to stay in bed and go later
2. knowing I wouldn't go later
3. brunch with my mother-in-law
4. the fact that delayed coffee is all the more delicious
5. delusions

Edited to add: I realized as soon as I posted this that the "delusions" item could be read as applying to any number of things here. It's only meant to apply to delayed coffee. I really wasn't taking the opportunity to make a mother-in-law joke, I promise.
