A Few of My Favorite Things. And Not Favorite Things.

So, just kind of a rave (it's just there to disguise the rant).  But here's a list (in no particular order):

A FEW OF MY FAVORITE THINGS:
  • DONUTS!  (Come on, you HAD to be anticipating that one!)
  • Receiving random texts/emails from old friends.  So full of warm fuzzies!  (I try to do my best to send out random love into the universe too!)
  • Being polite.  I heart cashiers/other retail service oriented people who are genuinely nice and polite, and I am always nice back.
  • My Pandora mix.  It is superior to your Pandora mix, and it is wonderful. 
  • A clean house.  Namely, my own clean house.  I said this was a list of my favorite things, not things that are a regular occurrence.
  • The Hubs.  Generally all around.  Except on the rare occasion he things he is funnier than me.  In which case, we have problems :)
  • A cold, rainy day outside when you are feeling crappy and need an excuse to stay in bed and watch bad TV/movies.
  • Happy hours!  Just because I am all pregnant doesn't mean I have stopped going!  I can be happy too, you know!
  • My flower gardens!  Beautiful peonies and roses - and they were here when I moved in.  I just water them and cut them and then take all the credit :)  (Also, hoping to post pictures of them soon.)
  • THE BEATLES.  Seriously.  Almost everything.  As a group or as solo artists.  Even good covers, like the Across the Universe soundtrack.  I don't care.  It will put a smile on my face.
  • REALLY good food.  No matter where it's from.  Bonus points for home made/made from scratch, Mom or Grandmother's cooking, or just food that hits the spot or satisfies cravings :)
  • My family, especially my immediate family.
  • Honesty and straight-forwardness.  Because those things are important.
  • My friends!  They kickass.  No further explaination needed.
  • Blogs! And blog updates! And comments!  YAY!

A FEW OF MY NOT SO FAVORITE THINGS:
  • Mouth-breathers on conference calls.  Ugghhh...CREEPY!  Seriously.  Learn to use the mute button on your phone.
  • People who walk in the middle of the sidewalk and then stop for no apparent reason.  Usually causing the person behind them (me) to smash into them.
  • Rude people.  I can be rude too.  And chances are, I will make you feel stupid/inappropriate for being rude to me, so watch it.
  • Speaking of rude people, you know that driver in front of you who you "let-in" in traffic and didn't give you "the wave?" Yea.  Him.
  • Bills.  Obviously.  Namely that pesky MasterCard one.
  • A cold, rainy day outside when you have fabulous outdoor plans.
  • The check being delivered to your table before you're done with the entree.  What if I wanted dessert?
  • Used tissues. The Hubs has been known to leave them on his bedside table.  GROSS.
  • One-sided friendships/relationships.  The phone/internet/US Postal Service works both ways, you know.
  • People who call you "girlie" or some other term of endearment when you are not (even remotely) friends (read, my office manager)
