Ten on Tuesday: 10 Songs You Hate

Caution: thinking of things you hate first thing in the morning is not going to make your mood any lighter. Yikes. And I didn't want to delve into the music of my childhood, because there's a lot of animosity there... I'm a product of the 80's. So, instead, I will stay somewhat current (well, within the past ten years). These are ten songs that would inspire me to change the station. Here ya go!

1. Big Girls Don't Cry - Fergie
This song has just annoyed me thoroughly, for quite some time

2. You're Beautiful - James Blunt
Repetitive and unimaginative... He talks about being "f#$ing high"... always a nice addition to an attempt at a love song.

3. Believe - Cher
No, no, no, no.

4. Bootylicious - Beyonce
I can't even say the word "bootylicious".

5. Nookie - Limp Bizkit
Yuck. Come on, Fred.

6. Blue - Eiffel 65
I WANTED TO SCREAM EVERYTIME IT CAME ON.

7. Lollipop - Lil' Wayne
I cannot stand him, and this song is just the icing on the cake.

8. Milkshake - Kelis
People need real jobs - writing music like this should not earn them a living.

9. If You Steal My Sunshine - Len
I just remember being haunted by it, on the radio.

10. Underneath Your Clothes - Shakira
loathe her, and anything she's released. She can dance, but that is IT.

Ten on Tuesday: 10 Things That Scare You

I forgot to post this last night... so, forgive me. I'm a bit behind! :)

1. Clowns. Any clowns. Thanks, Stephen King.
2. Rodents. They are the most disgusting creature known to man, and they give me panic attacks.
3. Misplaced, or misused, power/control. Unfortunately, we see it far too often these days.
4. Failure, in any form. The possibility never makes life easier.
5. Deadlines
6. Music that just sounds like a bunch of screaming… is that called Screamo? Whatever; it’s scary to me that people mistake that as talent.
7. Cancer
8. Childbirth. It’s bad to put “childbirth” after something as devastating as Cancer, and I know it’s beautiful and blah, blah, blah… but the thought of it terrifies me to my very core.
9. Animals dressed as humans (and that is specifically for Allison and Lacy)
10. Misunderstandings. Actually, any “mis” words in general. They usually don’t mean something fun and happy.

Ten on Tuesday: 10 Great Things That Happened This Summer

I only get to choose ten? Ok, here it goes:

1. I got to lay on an air mattress in Lake Chelan, for hours on end.

2. A family friend was saved during his first visit to our church.

3. Three words: Labor Day Weekend. Several more words: Dave Matthews Band @ The Gorge with amazing friends. Seriously, this weekend may go down in history as one of the most amazing trips EVER.

4. A best friend from high school, Stefanie, got MARRIED! (Yesterday, to be exact...)

5. I finally left South Hill.

6. Kid's Camp, and staying up all night to sneak down the waterslide at 4am. Oh, to be an adult.

7. We introduced "game nights" into our routine, then quickly dismissed them from our lives when the competition turned violent.

8. Political History was made - first female Republican VP candidate, and first African American Presidential Candidate. That's always cool.

9. The Truth Project.

10. We discovered an amazing "Sushi Happy Hour" at Dragonfish, in Seattle.
