[ I love when that happens! ]
I like that usually when someone speeds past me while driving - like I'm the one holding them back - I usually end up stopped right beside them at the next traffic light.
I like to sit on the porch and drink coffee while it's raining.
I like when I am able to get my Christmas shopping done early.
After class one day, I had stopped at the vending machines to see if they had any trail mix. (They didn't.) The guy at the Coke machine said, "Do you want a Coke? The machine gave me two." Sure! I thought, "What are the odds?"
I also like to sing and dance around while I'm driving. If you live in my area and see someone doing that, it's probably me. I'm not having some weird seizure; if I'm really moving, it's probably because the song "I Will Survive" is on.
I went to a shoe sale the other day. I decided to not get the flimsy, cloth, on-sale shoe; after much debate, I opted instead for the $3 more non-sale, sturdier shoe. As it turns out, the shoe I picked was on sale too! I *love* when that happens!
