I would like some sites not being suggested as I type, but don't want to have to remove them from my bookmarks either...

This can be adjusted in the Options dialog, on the Privacy tab, in the Location Bar section.

orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Privacy

More info: Address bar autocomplete suggestions in Firefox.

I should mention that the options appear to be limited to "bookmarks or no bookmarks." I don't think there is any built-in way to show some but not all of your bookmarks in the auto-suggest.

Also note this if you visit a bookmarked site that this URL becomes a history item and will thus appear in the list even if you only want to show history items.
