Stuff I love (not related to food).

bexominglex

Having a slightly stressful day. I thought I would make a list of things that cheer me up that have nothing to do with food. I already started that whine thread so this is to balance that out.


Rainy Days!


Animals. Especially cats. Especially my cat. No. That is not my cat.


I like napping. And sleeping (Yes, I like puppies, too).


The Museum of Anthropology in Vancouver, BC (and First nations art in general)


Dinosaurs! My fave are deinonychus!


MOVIES!


I miss living up North and seeing the Northern Lights.


Camping!


PUZZLES!


Brussels Griffons- I want to own another one some day.


Biology!

That's it for now...

Is this the thread where we trash people for what they like, or should I go to the whine thread?

Eventually someone will take offense to what someone likes and then it will deteriorate to everyone leaving snarky comments about how that particular person is bitter, judgemental, a "hater", or otherwise offensive. Before it does so, I'd like to add my own stuff I love:
1. A big book that I can lose myself in.
2. Cats
3. The smell of my partners hair
4. The sheets one has that are so so soft and omg so comfy.

How can people posting stuff they like that isn't food-based deteriorate to snarky comments? If that's going to happen, it's going to happen everywhere else...

RafterRattler

Awe come on. Lighten up. It was targeted at the Costner comment, and I was completely kidding. I'm actually enjoying this thread.

bexominglex

Glad you like the thread. Threads about happy stuff are nice!

A really good movie.
Coming home to an empty house (does not happen all that often anymore).
The sound of my children laughing.
Retail therapy in a smaller size.
Weekend get-a-ways with the girls.
The change of seasons.
The sound of the ocean.
iTunes.

I don't have anything particularly enlightening to say. I'm just enjoying the oddly pleasurable feel of the computer keys as I type...

I dream of sharing wisdom with others, but find I have none to offer, just random thoughts of no particular import...

The smell of freshly mowed grass could cause universal peace if tense world leaders would just lie down and breathe...

A hot, steamy shower after a cold, rainy run is bliss...

E-books are all well and good but they don't smell right and they lack the wonderful feel and sound of crisp pages being turned. I love the chaos of books lying about...

If you could purr, I'd curl up in your lap forever...

Of the many enviable physical gifts that have been bestowed upon cats, their method of bathing is substandard to ours...

Birds can fly and they are beautiful, but their method of bathing is also substandard...

Hot, soft and spicy...

Clean, crisp, cool and tight...

I don't understand people who think sleeping is a waste of time, they are obviously doing it wrong...

Laughter is a gift. Even that damned nervous laughter during funerals, that I personally feel is directly caused by the deceased having fun...

Dancing, wrapped in someone's arms, moving to music is beyond words...

Dancing to loud, rowdy tunes and singing at the top of your lungs is joy...

Kneading dough causes incredible upper body strength. I should open a gym that involves pasta making...

Sweet or savory. Hot or cold. Blanketed by tender, flaky crust...I could write an ode to pie...

Water is miraculous and feels so good...

Strong forearms are a feast for the eyes...

The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog, the quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog...there, I got to use all the letters at least twice...still loving the feel of the computer keys...

Stationery stores are my secret vice. I cannot resist office supplies...

I love the woodsy smell of Home Depot and detest the rubber smell of Canadian Tire, yet find myself in Canadian Tire more frequently...

It is unfair that a woman who runs gets "sort of" nice calf muscles and must do other exercises for the look she wants and a man who runs gets "cut" calves two minutes after starting out...

Flies exist to amuse cats and dogs...

Mosquitoes exist to give people purpose...eradication...

I exist to experience it all...um...barring eradication...

bexominglex

I am a woman and I have huge calf muscles. They are actually too big, look like pop-eye legs, and I don't have run that much.

parys1

I wish. I have calf muscles, too, just not the nice cut, well defined ones. Hence the fitness and weight loss site.

3) I love my cat Ash
4) I love the smell of fresh mowed grass

6) I love to snuggle under a warm comfy blanket on a cold night with my husband
7) I love the feel of my husbands arm around me holding me tight
8) I love to laugh, not just the haha, but the big old belly laugh that makes you almost pee your pants laugh
9) I love to sit on my porch on a spring afternoon and feel the breeze blow as I rock in my rocker.
10) I love the rare occurances where I spend time with all my brothers and sisters. I come from a large family (7 of us) and it 's rare we get to be together :flowerforyou:
