A few of my favorite things

The other night I was looking through some old journals and I came to an entry where I listed a bunch of my favorite things.  Since then I have been revising that old list in my head and these are a few things I would like to share...

1. Dark chocolate.  Currently I have been munching on a Green and Black's Mayan Gold bar Jessica brought home from her work Christmas gift exchange.  It is heavenly.  

2.  I love the Fall!  I love the cool crispness of the season.  With fall comes some of my favorite things.  I love Halloween, the beauty of the changing leaves, bonfires and apple picking.  There is just something about the onset of October that brings a smile on my face.

3.  Lost.  I worry this silly writer's strike is going to ruin the

upcoming season of my favorite show.  Things seem to be on track for at least 7 or 8 episodes to be aired this season.  Not enough for me.    In preparation Jessica and I have watched season 1 and 2 and are currently making our through season 3.   It's a sickness... I know.  I don't care.

 

4.  I might be addicted to my cell phone.  Shocker, I know.  It is kinda embarrassing but I have a hard time being apart from it.  It's not that I love my actual phone type... I just really like being able to be in contact with friends and family at any time.  I am usually on it... either talking or texting.  I am sorry to those of you who have to endure through it.  

5.  Sushi.  This past year (thanks to Jon and Libbie) will be forever remembered as the year I became truly converted to sushi.  Not only do I like eating it, I just enjoy the whole ritual of it.  Add a little Gretel and I am a happy camper!!!

6.   I love to make a good mixed CD.  Currently I have one in my car that plays everything from Bread to Flyleaf.  I find that I get stuck on certain artist... favorites are Keane, The Fall Out Boys, The Graham Colton Band, Journey and Dashboard Confessional.  

7.  Can I have 2 favorite TV shows?  Well, The Office is more then a show... sometimes I really feel like I work at Dunder Mifflin with Michael, Jim, Dwight, Pam, Stanley and the rest of the crew.  I am sure I am not alone.  I think everyone who watches the show feels like they work with these people. 

8. Flowers.  I love flowers.  I love tulips, roses, lilies... all kinds.  I love getting flowers.  I don't know why something that's is ultimately temporary can bring me such joy.  I especially like it when someone sends/brings me flowers.  Sigh!  I just love it!

9. Fierce.  Yummy.  I don't know why more boys don't wear this stuff b/c it is good.  I sure do thank the people at Abercrombie & Fitch for allowing that smell to waifed through their stores.  I don't really like their clothes but it gets me in the doors. 

10. Rain.   I love the way it smells right before it's gonna rain.  I love to walk and play and to dance in the rain.  I also like thunderstorms.  Sometimes I find myself watching them from the window.  There is something almost peaceful about them for me.  Is that strange?

That's all for now.
