I’m running out of new and creative ways to say “Welcome to yet another addition of 100 Things About Me!”
And since this is only Part 4 of a 10 Part series, I see much FUBARedness in my future.
Look at that. We’re already three sentences in. Hollah!
Ahem. (Sorry about that. Never happen again. I promise.)
We have already covered my family, my most memorable moments, and things that I hate.
Today we are doing a complete 180 and focusing on things that I love. Now let me tell you right away - I’m not listing my husband or my kids blah blah duh duh yada yada obvious. I am not a bad woman with fucked up priorities - don’t fucking email me. Instead, let’s take a look at a few more interesting other things that make me go pitter patter in my heart, shall we?
100 Things About Miss Britt: 10 Things I Love
- I love my iPhone. Did you know I have an iPhone? Because I do. I totally do. And I love it to bits and bits because it is awesome. If this is what it’s like to have a Mac, I get it. (And I owe a few “Mac Obsessed Fucktards” an apology. Heh.)
- I love that Prince needs a hip replacement. Does that mean he is old? Possibly too old for someone my age to lust after in such an impure way? No. Oh, no. What that means is that it will be easier for me to catch his sexy ass.
- I love Dirty Dancing. You might like that movie. But I assure you, no one loves that movie like I do. Sure, you know “nobody puts baby in a corner”. But do you tell your husband on a daily basis that you “did it for nothing! I hurt my family… you lost your job anyway… I did it for nothing!”? And then continue to chastise yourself because “no! Not for nothing, Baby! No one’s ever done anything like that for me.”? Hmmm? Do you? I think not.
- I love being left the fuck alone. Not always. Usually I’m a pretty social person. But once in a while, when the fates blow my way and by some fluke of nature I am left all by myself in my house… for a few peaceful hours… I love that.
- I love being right. Which is probably why I’m generally such a happy person. Because I’m pretty much always right. (Oh I’m kidding! (Except you know I’m totally not (of course I am! (not.))))
- I love when I find a book that makes me neglect everything else. My current addiction is Harry Potter. (And I owe a few “freaking morons who are obsessed with a kid’s book” an apology. Heh.) I picked up the first book from the series my son got for Christmas in an effort to give us something to talk about. And while we have had much fun discussing Muggles and the future of the Ministry, I have to admit I’m well into the fifth book simply because I can’t put it down. I love when that happens.
- I love smoking a Cuban cigar the size of Cincinnati in the non-smoking section and running naked through the street, with green Jell-O all over my body, reading Playboy magazine. OK, I stole that. And I’m totally not into green Jell-O. But I am really passionate about ensuring that if I ever get the urge to do that, I can. Few things get me as hot as civil liberties.
- I love the beach. I love the way the sound of the waves makes me feel big, while the endless stretch of the horizon makes me feel small. I love how young I feel when I squish my toes into the sand. I love how simple life is when I’m teaching my kids how to jump with the tides. It’s the only place in nature where I’m really alive and at ease, all at the same time.
- I love reaching people that others avoid. Whether it’s the gruff old man that most people fear, the quiet person at the office that your co-workers ignore, or the abrasively loud class clown that most people simply laugh at as they pass by. Those are the people that interest me most - the ones that have to be drawn out or stood up to. I love being able to see new sides of someone.
- I love making money. More specifically, I love coming up with new and creative ways to make money. Not because I’m a superficial whore (that’s why I wear make up and cute shoes), but because the challenge is a rush for me. It’s not the money - it’s the win. Business is like a life sized board game. I love marketing and advertising and the sense of satisfaction I get when something works. My brain is wired differently than most people. I look at the world and tilt my head and wonder… how can that be turned into a profit stream?
And so ends a random sampling of things that I love.
Next week we’ll do… uh… er… I have no idea. Any suggestions?
(Psst… Kapgar, this is how you pander for comments!)
See you tomorrow for another addition of How Much Free Shit Can We Suck Out Of Miss Britt?!
Psst... thanks for stopping by! I hope I didn't traumatize you too badly on your first visit. Remember to subscribe to my RSS feed if you want updates from the site!

OK, great, now I have this horrendous mental image of you hunting down a limping Prince…
Do you think he’ll be allowed back on his platform shoes after surgery? I don’t think soooooo, heh

I’m not really into “making” money but I can spend it like a mother fucker!
[Reply]
OH the Harry Potter! I just started reading the series myself (on book 2), after spending much time thinking I’d never find a children’s book all that interesting. Of course, now I love it. Now I get it.
Em’s last blog post..LOST

Amy:
Freelance Guru: well yeah, I suppose it is. Sometimes that’s OK though. ;-)
DutchBitch: I’m OK with that!
Tori: Yeah… LOL… I see that now. I feel like I should pray now or something.
Peggy: and I’m not really all that great at spending it. How weird is that?
Em: so I am not the LAST person in the world to read them. Awesome!
[Reply]
The spooky thing is that the traits in number 9 are all pretty much me and I ain’t seen you around. Humph!
RW’s last blog post..Doing Lately…

Next week you could do 10 Favorite Movies or 10 Cool Things You’ve Done.
And you don’t just love being right. You relish being right. You love rubbing “being right” in everyone’s faces. You lust after being right. You have loud raucous sex with being right.
[Reply]
I totally get number 4. Being an only child, there are moments… Hell, there are days that I want to be left the fuck alone.
And? My Mac had to go to the Apple Store, via Ty-man, for a repair yesterday. I thought I would go insane. When he brought it home, I snatched my baby out of his hands and disappeared for two hours.
Poor, sweet, darlin’ MacBook Pro. Did you miss Mama? Yes you did! Is Mama ever going to let those nasty Genius Bar men man-handle you ever again? No she’s not!
Oh, sorry. That should have been a private moment…
Coal Miner’s Granddaughter’s last blog post..Is this thing on?

Oh Britt…you should totally do a pictoral next week…..”My Top 10 Favorite Pairs of Shoes.”
Signed…The Shoe Whore Who Lives Vicariously Through Others’ Fabulous Shoe Posts.
P.S. Are you serious that The Tiny Purple Freaky One needs a hip replacement? Probably from all that gyrating and air-humping he does on stage.
[Reply]
Dammit all to hell, when I posted above, I forgot to sign in..new computer. Sorry about that, I am forever The Shoe Whore.

I love Dirty Dancing too! My husband hates how much I watch the movie… I can’t think of a favorite quote, I like them all!
deb’s last blog post..SIL from Hell!

8 Made me want to be at the beach liek you wouldn’t believe that is one of the only places I can be find standing still not vibrating like I need tying down being by the seaside really does break out the serenity in my insanity.
Thanks Britt ;)

I love the beach. There has only been one thing in my life I love more than the beach.
I also love being alone–not always as you pointed out –but solitary hours in my house are a treasure.
Oh and I am typing this on my MacBookPro ;-)
turnbaby’s last blog post..So Into You Haiku
[Reply]
Harry Potter rocks my socks…
when you are done the series, borrow Avitable’s Twilight series. Seriously.
Sarcastica’s last blog post..Absolutely…stable?
[Reply]
I agree with the one about a good book! I love finding a great new book and getting lost it in for the day!
B’s last blog post..More SPCA Volunteer Stuff
[Reply]
Cuban Cigars are illegal here. And I would NEVER do something illegal, so I don’t know anything about Cuban Cigars at all. Nope. Not me. Mr. Law Abiding man.
They’re not illegal in Mexico though. ;-)
ABC Family is having Harry Potter Weekend! HP movies all weekend long.
The books are soooooooo much better, but at least it’s Harry.

i carried a watermelon.
oh, and i second the shoe pictorial for next week.
[Reply]
Mmmmmm…beach. And winter will be over here in about 2 more days.
I suggest New Smyrna on the east coast or Anna Maria Island/Bradenton Beach on the west coast.
New Smyrna-eat at Boston’s Fish House.
Anna Maria- eat at the Beach House in Bradenton Beach.
Every time I’ve been to Anna Maria (all the beaches are Free) I have seen dolphins.

I love me some Harry Potter. Incidentally, my husband looks just like him and sometimes I like to shout “WINGUARDIUM LEVIOSA!” in order to ready him for some sexual activity and then he will oblige me by sticking his wand in my vagina.

#9 is just awesome.

[Reply]
Mellow greetings and salutations Miss Britt.
I loved Demolition Man…Sandra Bullok makes me hard.
If you do shoe’s next week I sure hope there’s something about 4 inch Stiletto’s and black fishnet stockings. Or you could do 10 things you would never ever do EVER.
Trukindog’s last blog post..CRAZY 8″s
[Reply]
#9 is my favourite and the Cuban cigar one. Even though I don’t smoke I am partial to a good cigar on a special occasion.
Selma’s last blog post..The Unfeeling Walk Amongst Us
[Reply]
RW: yep, and now you know why I’m so insistent on reminding you (and anyone who will listen) about the soft mushy sides I see in you.
avitableKettle AND the Pot: oh really?CMG: LOL - yeah, I wonder if I’ll ever make the switch. I suppose the biggest thing holding me back is my inherent cheapness.
Stephanie: I think (if I can get time) that I already have another Shoe post slated for during the week.
deb: my husband hates that when I watch it I quote it line by line. “You’re wild.. you’re wiiiiiild!” LOL
L: yea, me too. I think I need a trip to the beach.
turnbaby:
Sarcastica: I’ll have to remember that one!
B: me too - although my husband is getting tired of doing all the laundry. LOL
Jay: but how do you feel about green jello?
hellohahanarf: “i carried… a watermelon?” hehehehehhe
Little Miss Sunshine State: even though it’s the closest one to me, we haven’t done New Smyrna Beach yet. Something about Shark Bite Capitol of The World kinda freaks me out.
Ironically, the last time we went to the beach, a little girl was bit.
Kyra Sutra:
See, and I just keep yelling “STUPEFY!!” I’m obviously doing it wrong!
Rich:
it can be.
Trukindog: me too - that movie is so cheesy - but soooo good. I think everyone should watch it before they vote.
Selma: I don’t actually smoke cigars either - but I like what the quote is trying to say.
Mainly - don’t fucking tell me what’s GOOD for me. Let me make my own damn decisions!

Now not so fast with the hip replacement thing! I think it means you can trade him in for a less defective model. Well, depending on the size of his paycheck. If he makes good money you might just want to supplement him with a cute on-site cabana boy.
Steph’s last blog post..“Just in case”

For the past month, I have felt like a child waiting for Christmas to come. My Verizon contract expires March 5th, and my iPhone is sitting on my dresser waiting to be activated. Only three more days. Whimper.
Gecko Rock’s last blog post..Splitting the Difference
[Reply]
Am I the first (or only) person to TOTALLY get that that’s a “Demolition Man” quote?!?! Cuz I hope so
[Reply]
Steph: there is no other model. He’s the Only One.
Gecko Rock: oh I can imagine! I called my old company and cried and threatened and all kinds of stuff so I wouldn’t have to wait.
Creed: I think you’re the second. ;-)

Whenever my wife watches Dirty Dancing on network or cable (which is EVERY FREAKING TIME it airs), she will identify every scene that has been cut and every line that has been altered. She also does this with Grease and Saturday Night Fever.
