things I can't live without...

In the half waking land between snooze alarm goings-off, I thought of something interesting. I elaborated on it in my own mind while getting ready this morning. What things can't I live without?



Aside from the Big Four (Friends, Shelter, Sustenance, Clothing) I absolutely cannot live without:

coffee - without which I would be lost
long black sweaters - without which I couldn't maintain my spooky/alternative look
mobile phone - without which I feel cut off, isolated, and alone
high heels - without which I'd just be slighty taller than average, and not of heroic proportion
french fries - without which I would die of depression
mayonnaise - without which I cannot eat french fries
escapist fantasy life - without which I'd go crazy and die of ennui
fantasy authors - without which I wouldn't have my escapist fantasy life
iTunes - without which I would be unable to experience the delight that is
musicals - without which I would lose my primary source of angst and drama
contact lenses - wihtout which I'd still look like the tru geek I am
email - without which I'd never have amusing spam - or contact with far flung friends
Halowe'en - without which my inner child would come out in less healthy ways
car - without which one cannot function in the Bay Area
Apple Computer - without which I wouldn't be able to maintain my operating system sense of superiority
acrylic nails - without which I couldn't have my every-three-week-dose of self inflicted pain
hair color - without which I would actually look my age
the internet - wihtout which I couldn't expand my repertoire of useless knowledge
too many interests - without which I could not complain of having too little time and avoid bigger issues
