HEATER!!

Going to a gift exchange and actually getting a gift you want!! We had a Christmas dinner tonight with all of our friends and somewhat significant others and everyone had to bring a gift under $20 but couldn't be a gift card. SO other then the two GIFT CARDS...lol... there were some nice wines gifted, a scotch decanter with glasses...BUT the gift of the night was the classic worst gift that you could possibly ask for....a game of SHOTS AND LADDERS! (sorry Pat). However, it does get worse....my friend Marcus decided to buy a mini-keg, which was selected by a young lady friend of ours who then EXCHANGED it with Marcus!!! HEATER!!

COOLER!!

Bird Sh*t!! Regardless of whether its on your car window or on the back of your shoulder (always the shoulder) birds just seem to have a radar to hit EVERYTHING that has to do with a human. I once made the mistake of parking under a bush at my sons Timbits soccer game because there wasn't much parking available and low and behold when I got back to my car it went from red to egg shell and by egg shell I mean BIRD SHIT WHITE! COOLER!!  

HEATER!!

Creating your own alcholic beverage and sharing it with your friends!!  This past summer we came up with the "HQ SLAMMER" which was Gin, Pink Lemonade and Strawberry Fruitopia.....with ice and fresh fruit on top.....fantastic! Next came the "RUGGED TUMBLER" which is Vodka, Cream Soda and Orange Juice WITH Pulp. Delish! Sometimes they are created from pure genius and other times due to the fact that there's nothing else in the fridge to mix with, but regardless of how you come up with it, it's your creation, your drink, your masterpiece!! HEATER!!

COOLER!!

Being HUNGOVER!! I won't lie, sometimes I don't mind the feeling of being hungover....but there's always that point in the night where you know you're at your breaking point and that's when you've given up the right to complain about the morning after!! You slowly roll over and realize it's morning and it came WAY to soon. No chance of you going back to sleep due to your exploding headache and turning stomach, so why not stare at the wall for an hour, doze off for 5 minutes and then wake up and run to the porcelin princess. :) Cold shower, a couple tylenol and back to bed. Ahhhh the good life!! I'm sure there will be much of this over the next couple weeks due to Christmas party's and CHRISTMAS period. So enjoy it while it lasts, and celebrate when it's gone....GOODBYE DRINKS.....HELLO HANGOVER!! COOLER!!

HEATER!!

Family members and/or pets that make you smile in the middle of the night!! This may not apply to everyone, but there's a certain feeling of happiness that's incomparable. I woke up in the middle of the night this past weekend to find my fiance passed out cold and our little "dog" Milly (yorkie) passed out in between the two of us. It made me smile. It also works for children sleeping, or your gf lying there with her mouth wide open and arms flailed accross the bed. Pretty much seeing someone you love at so much peace is a HEATER. Plain and simple.
(maybe I just prefer them when their not awake, haven't decided yet. lol.)

COOLER!!

Permacoldinthewinter-itis!  This is the syndrome caused by the inability to get warm in the winter regardless of how many layers of clothing, blankets, snuggies, furry animals and heating pads you have surrounding your person. Can I get a fire burning one tiiiime deeeeeealllller!!!???

HEATER!!

Getting a hair cut and it looks BETTER then you were expecting!! You always have that glimmer of doubt that something tragic might happen while you're sitting in that chair, but once the final hair is clipped, washed and styled....you look in the mirror and that is the turning point of you day! You either are extremely satisfied and walk out with your head held high, or you walk out coolered and looking like a blind man with a butcher knife cut it. Here's to all the barbers and hairdressers out there who make HEATERS of our days!!

COOLER!!

People who impersonate another race or culture all together to try and fit in!!
I was watching a Jersey Shore re-run the other day and have to say it grew on me this season, but the idea of other people outside of the show trying to act like "guido's and guidettes" is HILARIOUS. There was actually a group on Facebook a while back that talked about Ed Hardy and all the people wearing them were white people trying to act like guido's.....they were pretty much the funniest pictures I had ever seen!! Here's an example of one....COOLER!!

Looks like a little bit too much T and not enough G in their GTL!!

HEATER!!

Actually remembering your dream and it being a good one!! We have all woke up and tried to piece together what just happened in that mystical world of dreamland....but when you wake up and vividly remember flying through your old high school in your bathing suit eating a Big Mac with Barack Obama, you can sit back, smile and know that you are one of the few lucky ones who gets to relive the beautiful world of dreams! HEATER!

COOLER!!

Trying to explain the internet to a 4 yr old!! I was driving my son to hockey this weekend fairly early in the A.M. and he asked how I was able to send pictures to my family in Montreal.  I tried to explain to him that I am able to write something on the computer (as I'm doing right now) and people all over the world are able to read it. Now to us, we are used to it, but to a 4 year old, who thinks it's cool that milk comes from a cow and that we can control Yoshi as the touch of our fingertips on the racetrack....trying to explain how wirelessly FROM MY PHONE I can send a msg to China.......NOT gonna happen. GG lesson learned!
