- Some days are much better than others.

- Never a more true statement: "Different strokes for different folks."

- I wish more people would respond to my e-mails.

- I'm annoyed when people want to talk and talk and talk and talk.

- I've had four freakin' speeding tickets and paid them all!

- I have a lot of dreams, including nightmares from time to time.

- I love the sound of the ocean and kids playing out in the distance.

- There is a lot of things I wish could be different, but I'm still very blessed.

I am not happy about growing older but feel better knowing what the alternative is..

I talk way too much

I have been known to have the "foot in mouth" disease

I worry about what this world will be like for my grandchildren

I don't like exit polls

I am addicted to play station I love The Sims

I don't do mornings either

Coffee is a necessary substance

Today is Earth Day, Am I Green enough?

I wonder why they put floatation devices on airplanes in case of a crash seems to me they would put parachutes.

"Life is short, do the things you love, forget the stress it will be here after you are not." This is a wonderful statement, to bad I can not abide by it.

Mornings don't bother me, unless I just don't feel like getting up. Most of the time I'm up before anyone else.

I've never had a cup of coffee.

I love Spring! Fall and Winter just get me down, and I hardly ever leave the house. I can't stand to be cold. I do love snow, however.

I loathe most sports, especially baseball. I can tolerate 1 or 2 NFL games, but that's my limit.

I'm addicted to my Nintendo DS... and I spend more time in my Animal Crossing world than I do in reality; or so it seems.

I'm allergic to pickles, but I love homegrown cucumbers... yum!

I'm a VERY opinionated person, and not all people agree with or understand the reasons for my opinions. But, that's okay. To each his own.

Being such an opinionated person, my mouth often runs faster than my brain.

Sometimes I wonder if McDonald's gives away driver's licenses in the happy meals.

"Today is the tomorrow that we worried about yesterday."

Why do we have mosquitoes? Does God have a plan for them?

Nothing can be better than early mornings on days like this.

Why are computers supposed to save time, yet we spend so much time with them?

I love cartoons in the newspapers, even the editorial cartoons.

Coffee is necessary, but I drink decaf.

We go to sleep with a CD of the ocean - no birds, no music, just those wonderful waves. It only gets better when they are live and not on a CD.

I'm not sure I can live if I can't travel. It's part of my life.

Evidently Chad has a heavy foot.

I'm probably one of the people that annoy you--I ramble!

I don't mind mornings, once I finally drag out of bed.

I would rather have iced coffee than hot coffee. It's easier to drink!!

I LOVE fall. It's my favorite season.

I've had 3 tickets. I paid one and went to court on the other 2. I ended up not having to pay them.

I love my job and the people I work with!

I'm goofy happy with my husband and my life in general!

I believe that everything happens for a reason and you meet every person in your life for a reason.

I also believe that things happen sometimes that you don't understand. And I have learned to think before I speak and to do everything I can to show the people in my life that I truly love them and appreciate them!

Why do we drive on a parkway and park on a drive way?

Do Vegetarians eat Animal Crackers?

Why are asteriods called asteriods, and hemorrhoids called hemorrhoids?

Ok, that was a little tacky, even for me. But I thought it was funny. This post may be removed if deemed necessary, lol!

Why can`t woman put their mascara on with their mouth closed?

and something I have always wanted to know but was too afraid to ask:

Why is there a light in the fridge but not in the freezer?

-- Posted by Disturbia on Wed, Apr 23, 2008, at 3:15 PM

The above post should read:

I get really upset when my co-worker can't hit the trash can in the restroom or replace the TP when she uses the last on the roll?

I love it when my 4 yr. old ask me to snuggle with him.

A love to travel, but seldom have the time or money to do it.

I am obsessed with driving fast even when I'm in no hurry to get anywhere. (probably should of been a racecar driver in hindsight)

I find no greater joy than seeing one of my kids excel in a particular sport.

My greatest love outside of family and God is Coaching softball.

I've had too many traffic tickets to count and paid most of them.

I wish the Tennessee Vols could do better on the field and clean up their off-the-field problems.

I love shooting pool and playing in tournaments, but can't find the time to do it anymore.

My wife is without a doubt, my best friend and at the same time one of the hardest women to get along with sometimes..

I love the ocean and staying in a cabin in the mountains.

I wish I had a better relationship with my kids.

I wish I had the money to do more for my kids.

I absolutely hate people who feel it is necessary to drive in the left lane when the right lane is open.

I wish I could see some of my old school friends more often.

I wish some of my co-workers who I don't care for would go ahead and retire!

I hate to eat "healthy", but with my metabolism, it isn't an option not to.

I haven't smoked a cigarette in four years, but still crave one almost everyday.

I wish I could lose some weight and keep it off while eating what I want!

Mike--I agree with most of yours!! Only, I never picked up smoking!! And my husband is my best friend and VERY hard headed sometimes!

Disturbia, I have actually learned to put on mascara without opening my mouth! It took a minute, though.

Chad--you have definitely got to do another one like this! I love it!!
