My Favorite Things

In the tradition of The Sound of Music and its subsequent soundtrack's incorporation into the Christmas music universe, I'd like to list a few of my favorite things when it comes to cold weather.

List compiled with the help of Traci C. Thompson

I'm done. Your turn to add some.

...Never ceases to give me a good laugh.

You know that game where you type "[Insert name here] looks like" into Google and see what happens. Here are a couple of my favorites:


April looks like Alton, the guy who operates the Tilt-A-Whirl down at the shitty amusement park behind the Walmart.

April looks like a ghetto slut.

Why is there a remake of The Birds?

It's true. They are.

I debated changing my blog colors to a more Thanksgiving or Christmas friendly scheme, but decided a) I don't want a brown blog, and b) it is too early to decorate for Christmas, despite what the department stores tell you.

I am pumped, though, for the return of pumpkin and gingerbread flavored things, soups in bread bowls, apple cider, scarves, and fireplaces. If you are not excited about these things, you better check yo' mind.

I caved. My blog is officially Thanksgiving-friendly. I need to find some hand turkeys.

That was a close one.

Oh What a Beautiful Morning...

Mike-o gets here today in exactly one hour. We'll see what sort of hijinks up with which we can come.


I tried to make that a proper English sentence. Deal with it.
