These Are a Few of My Favorite (and Least Favorite) Things

(Girl) - "...Usually when things has gone this far

People tend to disappear

No one will surprise me unless you do"

(Boy) - "I can tell there's something goin' on

Hours seems to disappear

Everyone is leaving I'm still with you..."

- Young Folks by Peter Bjorn and Jon

A few things I like:

- The smell of Sharpies

- Street smart people.

A few things I hate:

- The smell of freshly cut grass

- Stubbing my toe (makes me more legitimately angry than any human can make me)

A few things that scare me:

- Bees. Absolutely terrified. It's out of hand.

- The Grimlins & Chucky.

A few things that make me laugh:

- AFV is always embarrassing to watch with anyone else in the room, due to the intensity of my laughter during the show. I used to go up to Starbucks and just watch 10 minute videos of all the clips from a single episode condensed. I've seen over 100; my friends started telling me to stop looking at them. I know addiction to pills is bad for you, but they DO say laughter is the best medicine!..... Oh, Lordy.* And that joke didn't even really work either.**

- Whoopie cushions/potty humor/slap stick humor - I'm just a big child

The attorney that I work for was born today some odd years ago. I brought a Cinnamon Sock-It-To-Me cake and sent out a laughable mass e-mail something like, "Join us in DP for some cake to celebrate the wonder of _____’s life!".... I'm pretty sure that's not what the e-mail said. But the truth is.... I have a serious problem with mass serving- with eating in front of people, making people's plates, etc. I really hate having to perform any public action dealing with food where attention could be called to myself.... I realize that makes me kinda crazy. But then again, I don't really see it as something worth working on changing- I'd be fine never serving cake for the rest of my life. I'm a total pro at making drinks for people, so it works out.*

*Sarcasm. I mean, I'd like to think I can make a good drink, but really I'm just making fun of myself for talking about so much dumb stuff, when I could be talking about like world peace or AIDS... I'm so serious all of the time. And yes, it IS hard being me.

And finally, feel the passion... Smell the leather.
