Things I like

You know, they're not my favorite band, but I turn up the radio every time I hear them.

When I'm riding down the road, the conversation stops when I hear the opening riff to "Jailbreak."

Damn good road music.

 

"Fighting" is my favorite album of theirs. If you're not familiar with it, you can Youtube the whole album. It's been in my highway driving rotation for years.

raindrops on roses
whiskers on kittens
bright copper kettles
warm woolen mittens
brown paper packages tied up with strings
cream colored ponies
crisp apple strudels
door bells
sleigh bells
schnitzel with noodles
Wild geese that fly with the moon on their wings
girls in white dresses with blue satin sashes
snowflakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes
silver white winters that melt into springs

 

BOOOOO!

*throws tomato*

 

-- watching storms roll in at my house.
-- being able, on a clear night, to see every star in the sky.
-- watching my three sisters grow up.
-- getting hugs from a little girl known as tator bug at church.
-- being part of kids lives, and watching those transformations.
-- long talks with my mom.
-- my job.

 

Nooooo, those are "favorite things," not things one merely "likes."

 

Thunderstorms.

A snowy, December, Cleveland day

Two chicks at one time

Having a job

Driving a truck

 

Diet Coke (fountain preferred)
Laughing with my best friends about something funny from the past
Silence in the movie theater
Sauteed soft shell crabs
12 hours of uninterrupted sleep
Exile on Main Street
70 degrees with no humidity

 

-- Having 70 degree weather in July.
-- my bed.
-- sleeping longer than 8 hours.

 

Fixed.
