litlover12 . You ask for a letter of the alphabet, they give it to you and you have to come up with ten things that you like that start with that letter. I got the letter "R"
1. Red: as in my favorite color. It seems like nearly everything I own is red - my cell phone, my iPod, my 2GB flash drive, my car... the list goes on (I even have a red bookcase). Red is the main color of the University of Utah and a few other teams I like (and a couple that I don't like, but that can't be helped). Coincidentally, I'm a hardcore conservative and that has become associated with the color red (I'm just glad I didn't live in the 50s ^_^)
2. Right Wing: Speaking of hardcore conservatism - my dad says that Congress isn't as into politics as I am. Well, admittedly, it's his fault - he got me into it (he also quips he's created a monster - hee hee)
3. Rush Limbaugh - Right wing political commentator, the father of modern conservative talk radio, the Most Dangerous and Troublesome Man in America, Harmless Little Fuzzball and All-Around Good Guy (I think I covered it all).
4. Ronald Reagan - (wow - I didn't realize there were so many "R" names/words associated with conservatism). The Greatest President in All of Our Lifetimes and Beyond. He was president when I was born, but I don't remember it - sad day :(
5. Reading: been doing it since I was three. (wow, something not associated with politics! ^_^) The aforementioned red bookcase (plus another bookcase I have that isn't red) is full to overflowing with books I've read and even some I haven't quite got to yet. I love to read!
6. 'Riting - (hey, it fits in the "reading, 'riting, 'rithmetic model - but I don't like math, so I won't be using that again). If reading someone else's stories is fun, then 'riting your own is a blast. I love to 'rite! Whether it's fiction or just my own thoughts of the day, it's very therapeutic.
7. Roses - My favorite flower. Call me uncreative, but nothing beats a nice vase of red roses (oh, and I also love "Sailor Moon," and Tuxedo Mask throws roses and he's one of my favorites, so there you go - I had to get that one in there somewhere ^_^)
8. Ryan Shupe and the Rubber Band - Musical group based out of Utah. Country/Bluegrass, but they're not what you think of when you think of bluegrass. They are soooo much fun to see and I recommend going to one of their shows if you get the chance (they're best live). Here's a video (and another one).
9. The Return of the King - Third installment of the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy (books and movies). Tolkien wins at life. Just thought you'd like to know that.
10. Relief Society - The oldest (and largest - I think) organization for women and the women's organization for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Responsible for the gospel teaching and care of all women in the Church (it took me a while to think of a 10th item for this list, but luckily it's General Conference this weekend and I thought of this one). Official website is here.
That was a bit of a challenge, but now I can't stop thinking of "R" things that I like. Anyway, if you'd like to try it out, just comment and I'll give you a letter!
