Scars...I have several...inside and out. :) Hot showers...so nice after a long run. Tight jeans...during marathon training YES! Now, um, no thanks....I'm liking the baggy look. Ha! Nonconformism...yes please.

Glad you still like me even though I can definitely overreact, chase perfection with some things even though I know I'll never be. But I think I hate perfection more than I expect myself to be more perfect. ha! Sometimes I just want to gag myself when I'm at the elementary school or around people that pretend to be perfect. That's usually when my filter is broken the MOST....ha! But one of the things I love about YOU the most is that you are REAL...you say it like it is...you accept imperfections as brilliance and you don't just settle.

I agree with all the things you don't like. I don't like them either especially when I see some of them in myself;); September 28, 2012 at 11:47 AM

Naps, books and chocolate also work. I would add pumpkin and coffee. I not only hate cold coffee, I can't stand luke warm coffee. I always pour a bit and taste it before I fill my cup to make sure it is hot enough. I am also going to add triathlons. What do I hate? Rainy weather forecasts for Saturday when I want to take a long bike ride.; September 28, 2012 at 2:47 PM

Katie said... [Reply to comment]: Great lists! It has been making me think about my own lists. I tend to agree with almost everything on your lists. I might add that I love Fall (perfect running weather), and really dislike overly dramatic screaming children (mine like to do this when they're tired or hungry or sick).

Miss you!; September 30, 2012 at 4:20 PM
Raina said... [Reply to comment]: Is there a correlation between chocolate and tight jeans? I like tight jeans, but not unzippably tight. :) I miss the days of denim that was thick and didn't stretch.

Books? what are those? Financial planning? bahahahaha!! I plan my trips to get hot coffee.

Dry skin. Have it. Must bathe in lotion..
This was fun!; September 30, 2012 at 11:59 PM
