Better Than the Toes?

As Karyn has so subtly pointed out--and it is a very valid point, might I add--that when opening up our blog, a picture of hairy toes with purple nail-polish is a very jarring welcome. So today, I will wait until the end of the post to add any potentially disturbing photos.
I've been in a bit of a blogging funk lately. I feel like I haven't had anything fun or exciting to share. I'm still searching on the job-front, and sometimes feeling a bit defeated. I love where I work now, but I'd just like something a little more stable.
Here we go, I hope you learn something new...

I DISLIKE

1. The sound of chewing - Many people believe that because of this, they cannot eat around me, ever. It's not normal chewing sounds that bother me, but the crunching and open-mouthed smacking of people who seem to be raised by bovines. Popcorn is a particular problem for me...I even wear earplugs to movies (GASP!) because it bothers me so much--well, that and people who talk at normal volumes throughout the movie...IT'S NOT A SOCIAL HOUR!--the movie's more than loud enough to hear through the earplugs and I can focus on the movie instead of getting frustrated by silly things like popcorn chewing.
2. Suds scum in the sink - It's just gross. I shouldn't have to clean the sink before doing the dishes...
3. Salespeople who make me feel like I'm not good enough to be in their store. Enough said.
4. The little crusty chunk that forms in the nozzle of your lotion. Yuck.
5. When the streets are wet and the bottom of my pants get wet then I get home and take off my shoes and it soaks my socks.
6. Fergie (as in the singer, not the Duchess of York) - just in general
7. When my neighbor decides to go out to his car at 3am, open the door, insert the key and then go back inside for awhile so that the "dinging" can gently drive me insane. That as well as his hacking cough (dude, just stop smoking!).
8. Gas prices...can someone just give us a break?!?
9. People that don't know how to merge properly... (uh oh, maybe I shouldn't have gotten onto this whole driving thing...I could start on my "proper way to drive in a traffic circle" rant and I think I would lose all 4 of my readers then and there)
10. When people use the wrong "their/there/they're" or "your/you're"

Enough negativity...
I LIKE
(in no particular order, well, except for #1, 2 & 3)

1. Craig
2. My family
3. My friends
4. Cuddling up under a blanket with a cup of tea to watch a movie
5. Singing at the top of my lungs while driving or cleaning the house
6. Trying new restaurants
7. Chocolate and 5 cent candies
8. Sleeping
9. Edward Norton, Hugh Grant (I can't help it, I don't know what it is), and Colin Firth
10. waking up in the morning by myself - by which I mean, unassisted. No alarm set...
