A Bit of Frippery

[corvus_imbrifer]

So these good people: http://community.livejournal.com/spn_het_love/3631.html set out a Challenge entitled "These Are a Few of my Favorite Things" so I went to work. Naturally it does not follow the instructions for the challenge, but perhaps they'll find it amusing nonethless.

Gunmetal polish and music that's blasting;
Cheap one night stands and true love everlasting;
Saving good people and hunting bad things;
These are a few of my favorite things.

Barbecue ribs dripping sauce down my shirt;
A saucy old waitress that likes when I flirt;
Spark plugs and beer mugs and aces and kings;
These are a few of my favorite things.

Miller time shift at the end of the day;
Sam's sleeping head at arm's distance away;
Rock-and-roll, sports bars and buffalo wings;
These are a few of my favorite things.

When the beer's crap,
When the girl's mean,
When I'm feeling sad,
I simply remember my favorite things,
And then I don't feel so bad.

Research on laptops and Latin-filled volumes;
Lock picking tools and sneaking-in costumes;
My greyhound tee shirt and Dean's spinner ring;
These are a few of my favorite things.

Faded old jeans and bitch-face expressions;
Snarking and squabbling and childhood regressions;
Disco decor and motel mattress springs;
These are a few of my favorite things.

Reach for the tapes, Dean says "Don't even think it."
A sludge-dripping jar and "I dare you to drink it."
A touch on his arm and the mocking it brings;
These are a few of my favorite things.

When the vamp bites,
When the sex kills,
When I'm feeling sad,
I simply remember my favorite things,
And then I don't feel so bad.
