Things I Adore, Things I Abhor

[Yep, I'm doing this again. Nope, I'm not putting links to previous TIA/TIA. Too cranky.]



5 Things I Adore Today:


  • Free cherry tomatoes! (I "liberated'" them from Neighbor John)

  • A cool breeze (finally, dog walking without the sweat)

  • Fluffy, non-itchy dog fur (looks like Boom's new food is working. Sadly, his fart incidence is on the rise)

  • This blog (amazing pictures and a chance to lire en francais)

  • This interpretation of Pachelbel's Canon on guitar (get hooked on the classics, kids!)


5 Things I Abhor Today:



  • Bad Irish accents (I'm talking about you, new thug guy on Heroes)

  • Lost wallets (my fault, I know. Hate the loss, not the loser)

  • Mondays (I work for the Man)

  • Mondays (felt like a twofer)

  • Absolut New Orleans (I'm not much of a vodka fan, but who seriously thought mango and black pepper was a nice thing to do to drinkers trying to support Gulf Coast relief efforts?)

Hmmmmmmm. The lost wallet really annoyed me (DMV on a Saturday anyone?) but I'm getting over it. I think Adore wins, but only by a Boom-length tail.

We just finished watching tonight's Heroes episode, and I was cringing over that horrid accent. What gives? Is there a shortage on Irish actors in Hollywood?

Thanks for falling on your sword and saving me from blowing my money on the new Absolut. I was excited about it if only for the NOLA connection. Nuts. I was so hoping it would be a tasty tribute to the Crescent City.
