The Little Things...

I had a list of "little things'' running through my head. A pointless list of things I love and hate. So I came to the decision while I was eating dinner, that I would write a blog post about it. A pointless one, so you needn't feel obligated to read it, though I will probably announce on facebook that I have a new post up.

Things I Absolutely Cannot Stand:
  • That people seem to feel the absurd urge to punctuate each sentence with "Just Sayin' ". This in my opinion displays a rather diminutive vocabulary. If the best you can do is the afore mentioned verbiage, I would recommend a Thesaurus to add to your reading list, post-haste.
  • The word "Incling" I don't know what it is about this word, all I know is that it makes my skin crawl. Uhgg..
  • The perfect alignment of little weeds growing where we planted the lettuce in the garden. I'm thinking that Burpees may have possibly mistaken what seeds went in which package. All though I don't know who in their right mind would purchase weed plants (and no, I'm not referring to the Marijuana type. California this is not)
  • When I lose my keys, and then realize that they weren't lost, I just couldn't see them right in front of my nose.
  • Library fines. Particularely large ones that I had paid, but they never updated it in their systems, so it always tells me I have one.
  • When people try to prove me wrong when I know I'm right. (and no, I'm not referring to the age of the earth)
  • The fact that my beloved camera has bit the dust, with no explanation as to how or why.
  • The 25 cents I know is in the bottom of my pocket, but all I can seem to pull out is nickels.
  • The fact that society has chosen to cheapen women by marketing clothing that shows more skin than actual material.
  • When my sheets eat my socks and I always have a mismatched pairs.
  • When people speed down the road at 1:3o in the morning with their radios turned ALL THE WAY UP!!!
  • Mosquitoes.
I could go into more, but that is all for now.

Little Things That I Love:

  • Gardens
  • Rubber boots. Seriously, I love them. And I don't care if I look like a dork marching around in them with a too big t-shirt and an old pair of over sized shorts at 7 in the morning. I'll change out of what I slept in when I'm good and ready.
  • My neices and nephews.
  • My car, Max.
  • Throw blankets on a cold day, with a good book.
  • The Fair!!!!!!!!!
  • A good book.
  • Spearmint gum
  • my guitars, Eulalie, Benny, Tuck, Marty, and Jolene.
  • The fact that I named all of the guitars that I play ( even though only Benny, Marty and Eulalie are truly mine)
  • My Bible.
  • The New Testament (especially Paul's letters)
  • Celtic music
  • Rolled down windows, as opposed to Air Conditioning.
  • The 1940's
  • going barefoot
Ahhh. There are way more, but I'm sure I've lost you by now if you actually read this hole thing.

But, as you can see, the good far out-weighs the bad.
Good evening all :D
