This is serious.
Hate: Voicemails. It is 2010. Anyone who still leaves voicemails (with a few exceptions) probably doesn't know how to check their own voicemail. I saw that I missed your call. It's right there with your name and it says "Missed Call" or something to that effect. I don't need you to leave me a voicemail telling me you called. Yep. Saw it. Redundant. I will call you back. If you're calling and it's very urgent, a voicemail will do nothing. No one checks their voicemail. You need to send a text saying CALL ME RIGHT NOW VERY URGENT, or something else of your choosing, because if you leave me a voicemail saying that very same thing I will first ignore it, then be angry that I have a voicemail that I have to delete later when I have the patience to deal with the process. Even then I probably won't even listen to it, I'll just delete it. Always text, and if it isn't urgent, just wait until I call you back. What may be even worse is my parents. If I don't answer the phone on her first call, my mom will follow it with a slew of texts saying that she has called and the reason and whatever else she might have on her mind. Although this is a text, it's the same general idea. Mom, chill out, I'll get back to you. Worse still is my dad, who will call, leave a voicemail, then continue to call until I have one or two voicemails and 20 missed calls. I realize I did not answer the phone when you called. The most likely reason is I am busy or I can't hear my phone. Either way, one call would be suffice. In conclusion, unless you have a SUPERB reason to leave me a voicemail, do. not. Unless you want to feel the wrath of my hate blog. In fact, from now on I'm going to have a special little hate for everyone that leaves me a dumb voicemail.
Ok I'm over that.
Love: Cheap things. I spent more money today then I have in QUITE some time on my new apartment. Some things were excitingly cheap which makes me happy. A lot of the time I spend a lot of money on things just because they're cheap, even if I know I'll barely ever use it. I realize this is a huge waste of money, but I can't help myself, I just love it. I find that there are few things that I can justify spending a lot of money on. I'd much rather have cheap things that may not last me forever. I don't need to be thinking about if this dish drying rack will last me past next week right now. I just want cheap shit that I can throw out when I'm done living in this apartment because I'm not going to want to move it anyway. The most exciting purchase of today were some pillows for free.99, even if it was by accident, it was exciting when we realized.
Anddd I'm over this. Goodnight.

you left me a voicemail a couple of days ago and you didn't even sound like yourself. probably because you were so ashamed of leaving a voicemail message. haha.
