My Likes and Dislikes

The paragraph below is a collection of things that I like and don't like. I wrote this a while ago, so it's not formatted in the '25 things' format like everyone else had. AND, there is way more than 25 items. These are all just random, no particular order, just the order that I thought of them in.

I love spending time outdoors, going hiking, fishing, camping, etc. I love the summertime. The fall is beautiful but it depresses me because I know winter is on its way. I spend most of my free time either hanging out with friends or working. I love being spontaneous. Weekend trips are a favorite of mine. My political views are liberal. I can't stand liars. I'm not a big fan of people who are overly dependant on others. I love to eat, and to eat out! I love taking pictures and shooting video. I love music too, and playing for people occasionally. I don't eat a lot of junk food. I try to exercise fairly regularly. I don't usually drink a lot when I go out. Bar girls disgust me. Girls that drink too much turn me off big time. I hate when certain people call only because they need something. I have a habit of spoiling my girlfriends. I don't like when people answer their cell phones in restaurants, or when the ringer goes off. Direct connect calls are ANNOYING! I'd rather get a handmade birthday card with a lot of thought than an expensive gift. I can eat a Chipotle burrito bowl faster than heck. I have no known allergies. When I go fishing, I tend to get poison ivy because somehow my shoes end up coming off and I start exploring. DQ and Baskin Robbins are a definate weakness for me. I've never had a sworn enemy. I've ran the bases at The Field of Dreams in Iowa. I travel a lot and have been to 24 states and 2 countries in the past two years. I love Las Vegas and would go yearly if I could. I've never had a cavity and I never had braces. No glasses or contacts either. I work in Illinois and live in Indiana. I drive over 70 miles a day for work. I like Tom Cruise movies, but watching him in an interview makes me want to give him a forearm to the head. I love a good comedy show. I would love to get married if I found a girl who wasn't crazy. I wonder sometimes if there are any girls out there who are not. I think nose piercings are cute, if its the right piece of jewelry on the right girl. Tongue rings aren't so hot. I have no tattoos and wouldn't want one. I'm very close with my family. If I'm shopping and I see something that I really want, I usually buy it. I'm very good with money and finances. My credit score is near perfect. I've considered running for a local political office in my city. I try to make positive differences in other peoples lives. I love cookie dough. I feel strongly that people need to take responsibility for their own actions. I love odd looking animals, like Moose, Hippos, Armadillos, Giraffes, Koalas, and Meercats. I saw my first bald eagle in Southern Indiana. I would rather watch a movie than sports on TV. I currently have no points on my drivers license. My favorite beer is Corona, and my second favorite is Gumballhead (Three Floyds, Munster, IN). I do not like Heineken or Old Style and in fact, I think it tastes like ammonia in a can. Thursday night is my favorite night to go out. Love at first site doesn't happen. I've always had a fish tank. I have very little skeletons in my closet. I like dancing and clubs, but don't go often. I looove green eyes. I do a fantastic Aaron Neville impression. Almost every song I know reminds me of a person or a place and I could name a song that reminds me of each person I know. This list is getting really long. Poop jokes make me laugh. So does the word poop. I'm a night person, but I'm not crabby when I wake up. I don't snore. I'm not a picky eater. Pretty low maintenance. I love Frosted Flakes before bed. Two bowls usually. Peanut butter toast too. I usually eat the same thing at most restaurants. I have a huge 65" HDTV. I haven't eaten McDonalds or Burger King in over three years. I don't drink coffee. I'd love to take pictures of Central Park in the snow. I drink 2% milk. I can't stand the look, smell, or taste of a Payday candy bar. I always sneeze when I walk outside into the sun...usually twice. Target is my favorite department store. I could spend hours in any electronics store like Best Buy. I have a weakness for cheesecake. I'm very particular about having the inside of my car clean and smelling nice. My oldest t-shirt that I own is a 1996 Silverchair tour shirt.

That statement is an oxymoron.

I like dogs. I like country music. I like gospel music, I like color green. I like outdoors. I like the same things most people like.
I like our family. I know many things, There are some things I don't know. I like to debate. I am smarter than the average bear (person). Like my friend in college told me, "Ron, you're a hard guy to like." It irritates me when I come accros as a jerk. I am very happy that I was a public school teacher for 28 years.

I am soooo glad you shared your likes and dislikes with us. this is an impressive list. I like to feed people who like to eat! You are a fun person to be around and now I know why. All girls are crazy, because of the men we live near! They make us crazy!!!! (Believe me I know! Boys are fun, but men drive me crazy.)

I had started this list before we had gotten together and added to it over time, oops! I should probably take the crazy girl part out, lol. Christy is not as crazy as some others before her :p
