    polyester
    preparation h
    ninja skills
    diet dr pepper

    i think i got all the rest–i esp. liked mariah carey and lead based paint. awesome post.

  4. I’d like to add:

    – Red lipstick (okay for over lips over 30, or too aging?)

    – Sharp pencils (useful as a writing tool AND a weapon)

    – Sex and the City, the movie (insightful or oddly hollow?)

    - 88 degrees in San Francisco (global warming, or just freaky weather?)

  5. Kami says:

    Let’s talk cracked heels, what to do, what to do? And how about spray tans, such a necessity these days being inside all summer…and loving it!

    Great list! I would love to know your opinion on #8. Also, when you get to #43, I would love to add my two cents, I know who makes the best one (even though I don’t own it – dangit).

    I totally read “Condensation” (#21) as “Consternation.” And I thought that was weird because that wouldn’t help keep your mind off of anything frustrating! Duh, Emily.

  7. Crowley Kid says:

    Wow, sneakers and shoes made it as well as miracle grow and hoses; sounds like you need to go work in the yard with your shoes on. And you thought you were being random. :D

  8. Becky says:

    mmmmmmm, fortune cookies!

  9. Tim says:

    Don’t forget the heartbreak of Psoraisis…

  10. Tim says:

    Or, more correctly, Psoriasis.

    Wondering if Jakob and Bob Dylan like each other.

    Twists and turns of the next season of The Office.

    And what list would be complete without … Gerald Ford.
