I decided to make a list of things that I really don't like. Not in order of degree...just as they randomly come to mind.

1. The same person telling me the same story over and over again, especially with medium spaces of time in between the tellings...so that it's not long enough for them to possibly have forgotten that they told you before, but not so short as to be continuous. It feels like deja vu and makes me feel detached from reality.

2. Cats fighting.

3. The sound of metal scraping against metal - enough said.

4. Babies crying angrily. Babies and anger just don't go together.

5. Unflattering haircuts. People have so much potential for beauty...why squander it on lousy haircuts?

6. Music that is sung or played just a tad off-key the whole way through.

7. Cynicism. I can't live with a lot of it...it just makes me sort of wither.

8. ...
