Loved it! Funny that we're opposites on #13. I always find calls to be an interruption. I'm with you on #14. I'd have liked to experience farm living. I'm a Cancer too (6/27) Lookism? I like that you visit your parents every Sunday. I'm a creature of habit too. And don't quite fit in. Why don't I get massages more often? I get a great discount. I'm afraid to try collages.
Was your 100 list easier than you thought? Once I started, it just kind of flowed. I'm so glad you did this.
Hi Cheryl,
Glad you stopped by so soon!
I enjoyed doing the list, It was easier than I thought, because I never thought I could get to 100.
I would work on it and then come back to it. I kept changing it. It was funny what things popped into my memory.
I bet you would be great at collages, you are so creative! Yes, you should get massages more often if you get discounts... I am jealous.
I think I am more confident on the phone than in person, that is why I like talking on the phone.
That is cool that we are both cancers.
From Wikipedia:
Lookism is discrimination against or prejudice towards others based on their appearance. The term is not in widespread use, though it appears in major English language dictionaries.[1]
Lookism has received scholarly attention both from a cultural studies and an economics perspective.[2] In the former context, lookism relates to preconceived notions of beauty and cultural stereotyping based on appearance as well as gender roles and expectations. Important economic considerations include the question of income gaps based on looks, as well increased or decreased productivity from workers considered beautiful or ugly by their co-workers.
I love your 100! We have a few in common like #31 even though I'm bad at it. And I hope to say #7 in the years to come as they grow from boys to men.
Hugs!! You are a beautiful person!
Great list. I could comment on lots of them, but I'll just pick a few.
I love the idea of collecting heart-shaped rocks.
Coffee ice cream is my favorite too.
Your #74 made me feel sad.
I'm probably going to do this list too, but not for a couple of weeks (when I hit my 100th post).
It was fun reading your list. It is a fun way of getting to know people more. I think of things that I could have said when reading some other people's lists. I hope that you have a good day.
Loved your list, and getting to know you better. Lots of items on your iist resonated with me as well.
I found it surprising when I did my list that I was able to come up with 100 things. One day I'll do a new list just to see how many repeats I get.
