Photography Day Twenty... And these are a few of my favorite things.

I have a lot of things that I love and cherish and consider to be my favorite. But the things that I love and cherish that have the most meaning to me would be my salt and pepper shaker collection. They belonged to my Aunt Buddy (R.I.P.), so not are they only cute to look at, but they bring back wonderful memories of better days passed.

Day One... (Favorite)

This is one of those questions that people ask you all the time and is the hardest one to answer. What is your favorite movie? I have a million favorite movies but I have decided that the only way to properly answer this question is by choosing the movie I watch the most and can watch over and over and over again without getting tired of it. That movie is 'That Old Feeling.' It's a romantic comedy which is so not my kind of movie but I think it's great. I saw it for the first time years ago and instantly fell in love with it. Bette Midler stars in it which of course makes it instantly wonderful. It's hilarious, has a happy ending, and is an all around feel good movie.

Day Thirty... (Time of Year)

This time of year is usually when I'm making my musical transition from country to more rock/heavy metal. This year I found a new song, well new to me, that works perfectly for this transition. "That was Yesterday" by Wynonna Judd. This song is so amazing it gives me goosebumps everytime I hear it. And the story she tells before singing the song makes it that much better.

"'Cause I was your woman...

...but you threw me away..."

Day Nineteen... (Favorite Album)

My favorite album of all time is Brooks and Dunn number 1's and then some. It's got every Brooks and Dunn song one could ask for, plus a few new songs that were never before released. It's an amazing CD and I'm glad to have it in my B&D collection.

Honky Tonk Stomp

"Cowboy camped on a barstool...

...shootin' double whisky with a longneck back..."

Day Eleven... (Song from Favorite Band)

My favorite band was Brooks and Dunn (surprise, surprise, I know), but since they have retired my new favorite band is Montgomery Gentry. The song I chose to represent my new boys is "All Night Long" by Montgomery Gentry. It's a fun, fast paced, loud, and very entertaining song. Plus, Charlie Daniels is featured in the song playing his bad ass fiddle, and in my opinion shit don't get much better than that.

All Night Long

"How long you think this party's gonna last...

...all night long."

Day Five... (Favorite Memory)

This is one of my favorite memories. Every summer the whole family would get together down south at my Aunt Connie's house and have a huge famly reunion. I have never had a better time in my entire life. It's when all of my famly was still alive, there was no family drama or disloyalty, we were young and having the time of our lives. These are memories that can never be taken away from me, regardless of how fucked up certain people turned out to be. That's me in the pink innertube, Jason floating by himself, and I'm pretty sure Uncle Larry (might be Uncle Lee) about to land on his back in the pool. Ow. I miss him so much. But that's just what makes this an  even better memory.

I wouldn't be able to recognize the good times...

...if I had never had to deal with the bad.
