Quirks & Favorites

You know what I love?

I love in movies when it shows up close someone writing.  Usually it's some artistic angle of the pen or pencil scribbling out words on a piece of paper, and you can hear the scratchy or smooth movements of the hand-writing.  I love that.

I love when someone is typing in a movie (like "You've Got Mail") and it shows up close every little letter they're typing on the screen, as they usually read their thoughts aloud.  I also super love the sound of the keyboard tipper tapper typing away.

I love the smell of books.  I smell the inside of a book any time I open it to read.  I smell books in the store.  So what.  I don't have to be sneaky about it.  I just do it.

I love the sound of clicky shoes.  Not necessarily high heels (barf) but more like in movies when the cops or FBI guys are chasing down someone in the halls of a hospital.  Those kinds of clicky shoes.  My mom said when I was little I loved the sound of shoes and often judged whether or not I liked someone based on the sound of their shoes.  I think I've grown out of that phase.... maybe.

I love the sound of my little "text" chime.  Who doesn't?!  I often have "false alarms" in my head where I'm certain I just got a text but lo and behold, there is nothing there.  But I still love the chime.

I love the sound of a tennis match.  Especially the real ones on TV (which I don't really watch all that often) but I love the silence, except for the "pop" sound back and forth of the little tennis ball.  I love that.

What are some of YOUR favorites?  :)
