Things I CANNOT (or WILL NOT) Live Without

This post is a part of 20SB's Blog Carnival: Can't Live Without, and Alice.com is awarding prizes to lucky bloggers and readers!

Obviously my husband/friends/family would be first on a serious list... But those aren't the type of things that I am going to focus on here... Neither is air, water, food, or sleep... hahaha

In no particular order...

- Diet Coke. Seriously. I have mini panic attacks when my pantry stash starts getting low. I buy one almost every time I am at a store... I may be able to live without this, but I certainly don't want to.... hahaha

- My DVR. I can't imagine how I made it through life without one of these sooner!

- Funny websites - People of Walmart, Failblog, Emails from Crazy People, Passive Aggressive Notes, Cakewrecks, Crazy Things Parents Say... What would I do without all of you? And that was just the tip of the iceberg... I have TONS that I love.

- Jack in the Box curly fries. They are the best. Whenever I have an upset stomach, they are the only things that help.

- My laptop. I feel lost without it.

- Books. New ones, old ones... Doesn't matter. I wouldn't be happy borrowing my books from a library because I wouldn't want to have to give them back... I have tons of books and I like to re-read them.

- Target. I love Target. Maybe a little too much.... There was a while there that the checkers knew me by name at the one by my office.

- Converse All Stars. I've been wearing these since I was 11 years old. I am getting extremely frustrated by the fact that I can NEVER find my size at stores anymore... I always have to order them from zappos.com.

- Milk. Ice cold 2% milk, to be exact. YUM.

- Blankets. Throw blankets, quilts, vellux blankets... I love them all. There are currently 3 blankets of varying warmth and size piled up on my usual place on the couch and I just grab the one I need for the moment and snuggle up.

- Jammies - I prefer baggy yoga pants and a big t-shirt. Changing into them is pretty much the first thing I do when I get home from work...

- Re-runs of my favorite shows being played all the time. I love relaxing and playing on my laptop while The Office, House, Bones, or Scrubs plays in the background... Or Simpson's, Family Guy, What Not To Wear...

- Seatbelt Bags. They are awesome, they last forever, and they aren't terribly expensive... There are at least 6 that I can think of right now that I want...

- My Dyson Animal vacuum. Love it.

- AIR CONDITIONING! I despise being over-heated...

- Self-checkout lanes. Unless I am buying a lot of groceries... Then I'll go to the regular ones...

- Having every channel. Luckily this became a much less expensive must-have once my husband started working for a major cable company.

- A cable modem. I remember the days of dial-up. And it gives me nightmares.

- Pepcid Complete. Nothing works better for heart burn/indigestion. NOTHING.

- Johnson's Body Care Melt Away Stress Lavender and Chamomile Lotion. It smells fantastic, it's not greasy, and it makes your skin SO soft. I was so excited when they started making it in a pump bottle instead of just the little squeezy tubes...

- Really good dark chocolate. 'Nuff said.

- On-line bill pay. I always hated writing checks and buying stamps... Now I don't have to!

- My debit card. I almost never carry cash...

- New cars - frequently. A perk of my job... I will have my next car (it's at the bottom of the post I linked) for three years, and if I wasn't so excited about it, I would probably be freaking out a little bit about having a car for that long... I'm usually a 1-year kind of girl...

- Nice toilet paper... No more of that super-thin, sandpaper crap that I used to buy when I was BROKE.

- Video games. Yes, I am a 29 year old woman that loves her Wii and Playstation 3...

- My cute red usb mouse for my laptop... I hate using the touch pad...

Umm... My brain doesn't want to think of any more right now.... haha Enjoy.
