Argh! Go away!! And 10 Things I Want to do Before I Die

So, It's nearly 7 a.m. and I've been awake since 5 a.m. ... itching. I took another dose of Benadryl at 6 a.m. and slathered some more Aloe Vera with Lidoaine gel onto my legs. The itching is now tolerable and I'm getting loopy but I can't go to sleep ... I need to be at my OB's office when it opens. **Sigh**

Since I've been awake I've been a bit grouchy and have been adding little things to a mental list ... things that irritate the hell out of me. They are:
  • Itchy freaking rashes that won't go away!
  • Mowing your lawn at 6:30 a.m. Is that really necessary?
  • "Hip Hop Harry" on TLC ... it's like Barney meets the ghetto. Don't believe me, check out the website, http://www.hiphopharry.com/
  • "Forgetting" to take out the trash. Honestly. Do I look stupid?
  • Leaving cabinet doors and silverware drawers open. For goodness sakes! Close them when you're done!
  • "This is Emily Yeung." This little girl is irritating to no end!
  • Refusing to kill a spider because you don't want to "take a life." ("Black Widows aren't that dangerous!") ... and then turning around and eating a turkey sandwich.

There are more, I am sure. But my Benadryl-laden mind is a little foggy at the moment.

Finally, I got one of those forward emails about "what if you died today?" and what would I still like to do with my life. You know what I'm talking about ... I'm sure that you've been sent at least one. Well, I replied back to my friend with my "10 Things I Want to do Before I Die" list. Here it is, in no particular order:

  1. Become a season football ticket holder at the University of Florida (GO GATORS!) because buying tickets off of other people, especially scalpers, really does suck.
  2. Travel to either Guadalupe Island or to South Africa to do a caged Great White Shark dive. I really do have a thing for Great Whites.
  3. Tour the Vatican
  4. Meet the Pope
  5. Attend Christmas Mass at the Vatican ... with a good seat to boot.
  6. Tour England
  7. Visit St. Petersburg, Russia
  8. Build a really nice house ... and be able to afford to keep it up
  9. Become financially secure
  10. Spend a weekend at Discovery Cove

So, just out of curiosity, what's on your "10 Things" list?
