Random Thoughts of the Day:
I wish Google Maps had an "Avoid Ghetto" routing option. So true!
Nothing stinks more than that moment during an argument when you realize you're wrong. I hate it when this happens!
Have you ever been walking down the street and realized that you're going in the complete opposite direction of where you are supposed to be going? But instead of just turning a 180 and walking back in the direction from which you came, you have to first do something like check your watch or phone or make a grand arm gesture and mutter to yourself to ensure that no one in the surrounding area thinks you're crazy by randomly switching directions on the sidewalk. This happens to me ALL the time... only coming out of a store in the mall.
I totally take back all those times I didn't want to nap when I was younger. I also would like to take back NOT napping when Tyler was a baby and slept all the time.
The letters T and G are very close to each other on a keyboard. This recently became all too apparent to me, and consequently I will never be ending a work email with the phrase "Regards" again. Hilarious!
Do you remember when you were a kid, playing Atari and it wouldn't work? You take the cartridge out, blow in it and that would magically fix the problem. Every kid in America did that, but how did we all know how to fix the problem? There was no Internet or message board or FAQ's. We just figured it out. Today's kids are soft. I still do this!
There is a great need for a sarcasm font. Duh!
Sometimes, I'll watch a movie that I watched when I was younger and suddenly realize I had no idea what in the world was going on the first time around. I never really understood what Dirty Dancing was fully about.
How the heck are you supposed to fold a fitted sheet?...Without rolling it up?
I would rather try to carry 10 plastic grocery bags in each hand than take 2 trips to bring my groceries in. I have the bruises to prove it.
I think part of a best friend's job should be to immediately clear your computer history if you die. Mine would be filled with shoe websites.
The only time I look forward to a red light is when I’m trying to finish a text. I hate to admit to this one.
Was learning cursive really necessary? It is kind of obsolete, but kids are silent when doing learning it. Go figure.
I have a hard time deciphering the fine line between boredom and hunger. Who doesn't?
Whenever someone says "I'm not book smart, but I'm street smart," all I hear is, "I'm not real smart, but I'm imaginary smart." Hehe, kind of true! Too bad I am kind of the reverse.
How many times is it appropriate to say "What?" before you just nod and smile because you still didn't hear what they said? This reminds of parking lot duty after school as parents tell you who they are picking up and you have no clue what they said...
I love the sense of camaraderie when an entire line of cars teams up to prevent a jerk from cutting in at the front. Stay strong, brothers! Even better is when a speeding demon flies down the freeway swerving in and out, and then you see them up ahead getting a speeding ticket.
Every time I have to spell a word over the phone using 'as in 'examples, I will undoubtedly draw a blank and sound like a complete idiot. Today I had to spell my boss's last name to an attorney and said "Yes that's G as in...(10 second lapse)..ummm...Goonies." I have said, "K, as in... cart..." Again, I am book smart, not "street" smart.
While driving yesterday I saw a banana peel in the road and instinctively swerved to avoid it...thanks Mario Kart. :)
Map Quest really needs to start their directions on #5. Pretty sure I know how to get out of my neighborhood. I have thought this many times. It's a waste of printer ink!
Obituaries would be a lot more interesting if they told you how the person died. Very true!
I find it hard to believe there are actually people who get in the shower first and THEN turn on the water. I suppose if you had a tank less water heater, you could do it this way.
I can't remember the last time I wasn't at least kind of tired. Me too!!
Bad decisions make good stories. Unfortunately, yes.
Is it just me or do high school girls wear less and less clothing every year? Yes, again!
Why is it that during an ice-breaker, when the whole room has to go around and say their name and where they are from, I get so nervous? I know my name, I know where I'm from, this shouldn't be a problem.... I really felt this after I got married and changed my last name.
Can we all just agree to ignore whatever comes after DVDs? I don't want to have to restart my collection. Beta, anyone?
There's no worse feeling than that millisecond you're sure you are going to fall after leaning back in your chair a little too far. The moment before hitting the ground is the longest second of your life!
I'm always slightly terrified when I exit out of a Word document and it asks me if I want to save any changes to my ten page project to which I swear I did not make any changes. This sets me into a panic!
While watching the Olympics, I find myself cheering equally for China and USA. No, I am not of Chinese descent, but I am fairly certain that when Chinese athletes don’t win, they are executed. At least the girls are...
I hate when I just miss a call by the last ring (Hello? Hello?), but when I immediately call back, it rings nine times and goes to voicemail. What did you do after I didn't answer? Drop the phone and run away? LOL
I hate leaving my house confident and looking good and then not seeing anyone of importance the entire day. It's a waste of good make-up.
I like all of the music in my iTunes, except when it's on shuffle, then I like about one in every fifteen songs in my library. Why is this??
Why is a school zone 20 mph? That seems like the optimal cruising speed for pedophiles... Good point on this one.
Sometimes I'll look down at my watch 3 consecutive times and still not know what time it is. Goes for the date, too.
It should probably be called Unplanned Parenthood. So true!
I keep some people's phone numbers in my phone just so I know not to answer when they call. Doesn't everyone do this?
Even if I knew your social security number, I wouldn't know what do to with it. Me neither.
Even under ideal conditions people have trouble locating their car keys in a pocket and pinning the tail on the donkey - but everyone can find and push the snooze button from 3 feet away, in about 1.7 seconds, eyes closed, first time every time... This describes me perfectly.
It really angers me off when I want to read a story on CNN.com and the link takes me to a video instead of text. I know it has the little video icon, but you can't expect me to pay attention all the time.
I wonder if cops ever get mad at the fact that everyone they drive behind obeys the speed limit. I know it bugs me when others drive under the speed limit when a cop is around.
I disagree with Kay Jewelers. I would bet on any given Friday or Saturday night more kisses begin with Miller Lite than with Kay. I don't care who you are... This is funny...
