I'm grateful to JulieAnn for this topic - I've wanted to write for a while, and haven't been able to or truly motivated to - for a variety of reasons. This one, though, resonated so much that I had to write.
My feelings about my time in Utah are fairly well known and documented, on this blog in particular. One thing I loved, though, was the "Radio From Hell" show. I miss Kerry, Bill and Gina.
They made me laugh out loud on the way to work with their dead on assessments of life in Utah. I also, to this day, use the term "asshat", which I quickly appropriated from Bill. I don't know why it made me laugh. But it did.
I don't know if this will lighten things up as much as JA would like - but here goes.
THINGS THAT MUST GO:
1) My thinking I can fix things for people.
2) People who run red lights.
3) Viking fans. (I would have said Bears fans, but I love my cousin, so no go.)
4) People who don't like Boise. That includes the CEO of a certain corporation that shall remain nameless. You don't have to want to live here, mind you, but just be okay with those of us that do.
5) Tea Party members who use racials slurs. Actually, pretty much anybody that uses racial slurs.
6) Things that keep preventing Jeff Gordon from winning a race. Seriously, people, it's getting ridiculous.
7) Rainy weather (at least for a while)!
8) The Denver Nuggets (the Jazz beat them last night and I believe will continue to do so).
9) Brent Fav-rah. 'Nuff said.
10) My worrying about stupid crap I can't control. Enough already. (See #1 above).
Those, in a nutshell, are things that MUST go. Oh, you're right, I have a list of 100 or so more. But that will do for a start.

And here I thought you had a phobia about the number 100. I agree with a lot of your list. But even more important, I'm glad you wrote.
Negativism must also go. Only positive thoughts allowed. Love ya njp
Loved this post. I'm a day late, but you've inspired me to make a go at it myself.

I was pondering a similar list before I saw yours. So I might have to post min. By the way, thanks for the shout-out, Cous. I love you too. :)

I don't have any problems with Bears and Vikings fans per se. If they're actually good fans, I can respect them. I have a deeply rooted need to see them disappointed at least twice each a season. It's better when they're disappointed, say while watching the game at a Packers bar. But live and let live, I say. After all, they have to live with being Bears and Vikings fans. Don't they suffer enough already?
Cele -
Only when I have a deadline on 100 - lol.
njp - Yep, working on that. If only the sun would shine.
Don - I'm still checking for yours! It will be great, I'm sure.
Steve - I checked the other night but didn't see it, if you haven't done it, you should! It makes you feel better.
Cuphound - Jeez, and I thought you were being nicer than me, and everything. :) As someone who got off Facebook because of a crazed ex-boyfriend Viking fan, I think they all must go. Seriously.
