Bad for the dear iPod, yes, but my thirst for music 24\/7 (and that is no exaggeration!) is insatiable.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Flipping through old magazines. I actually do find them more inspirational &#8211; and timeless &#8211; than the current ones. It&#8217;s a bit of an odd habit, yes, but I do love it so! This love for quote unquote &#8220;vintage&#8221; magazines and\/or designer collections (as in, 2 &#8211; 3 years old) has been made quite obvious throughout my blog, I should think. Dedicating an entire post to Michael Kors&#8217;s Spring 2007 collection is proof!<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Drinking an unprecedented amount of tea. Within the week, I believe I have refilled my mug of tea at least two to three times per hour. I&#8217;m beginning to form this theory that there is something in the tea that makes it so addictive; once a sip is taken, the entire cup is gulped down and left empty in a minute. Then it&#8217;s time to refill it.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">My new ankle boots. Perhaps the most comfortable boots I&#8217;ve ever owned; I&#8217;m in love with the slightly patent leather, the little hardware details, and the fact that it&#8217;s the perfect blend of those amazing utility boots and a more feminine bootie. Okay, so it leans more on the girly side, but I still love it anyway.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Spending an hour or so on a good workout for the tummy and the behind. It&#8217;s quite refreshing, actually, even with the knowledge that the next day I may wake up and be immobile.
