Random Thoughts

> I had a stomach virus or just a pissed off stomach this weekend.  I live alone.  No one I know has access to my apartment unless I go get them.  Do you know how much energy it took for me to drive to the Pharmacy and pick up meds?  And how many times I barfed in a 25 minute outing?

> Never thought I would say this...I have too many books...anyone want to buy a couple?

> When a "friend" hears that your baby/dog is gone and says, "Oh, you want to call me back?" tells you they really are not a friend.

> That outgoing person I always wanted to be is not going to happen.  I stay in my head too much.

> On Ponce there is a guy in a wheelchair who refuses to use the sidewalk.  Apparently he believes his 2 wheels equate to a motorcycle and he can use any lane he chooses.  All while using his feet to move the chair.  WTF?

> People at the Plantation have been talking about the Idol mess.  Now these are the same people that if you say one word, one word about their habits, lack of talent, poor work ethic or idiosyncrasies will get straight hood on you, but love to pick fun at other people.  I need someone to hold up a mirror.

> I am trying to grow Mint & Rosemary.  Wish me luck!

> As of right now, I will spend another Heart Day alone.  I kidnapped my nephew so I wouldn't have to spend New Year's Eve alone.  Looks like another kidnapping is in the works.

> I have a habit of searching and befriending "unavailable" friends.  I need a microscope.  Some investigating is needed.

Sorry Y'all

Eyes that smile...I am so over and tired of people telling me to stop frowning and I should smile more.

Neither, either way hurts.

Neither.  Too much power.

Really?  Such a stupid, hard and complicated question....no answer...


Bonus (as in optional): What one thing, big or small, would you change in your life if granted one wish by a lamp-bound genie? Why?
Not to be alone.

My Random Thoughts....

^ How long has it been since I have seen a Mom sitting with her child as he reads?

^ I am so tired of sleeping alone.

^ I sometimes think there is a lot of freedom in being crazy. People leave you alone & allow you to talk to the people in your head.

^ Seriously - Seriously, your pants fastening below your butt is not a good look. It really isn't.

^ I really believe men are moodier than women. Truly I do.

^ I wish I was that type of person who can use people for what they want. I really want a new smart-phone. NOW.

^ Giving me your phone # while there is a female in the car is not a good look.

^ If 1 more person comments on my weight...I will bitch slap you....fair warning.

^ Do you ever think blog-sphere is recreating your high school years?

^ ATL is full of Real Estate Agents trying to sell you a house. & they are clueless of the Webster dictionary definition of the word NO.

3. That 4 foot lump of clothes will not wash themselves.
4. Your allergies get worse as the inches of dust continue to rise.
5. Late nights - pillows can only do so much for a snuggle buddy.
6. Flight of stairs + 7 bags of groceries + 1 trip = SUCKS

Reasons it is AWESOME to Live Alone...

1. You can walk around in the nude.

3. Lack of snoring. @ least you can't hear yourself.
4. If you don't feel like making up the bed...who is going to complain? You?
5. 3 am. Thirsty. Standing in front of the fridge downing Apple juice from the bottle. Priceless.
6. Walking through the door after work. Peace. Quiet. Peace.

19. All 8 pillows are yours!
20. You control the remote.

* I have lived alone since 19. So I am a little skewed when it comes to this topic.

Do you have your own list? Want to add more? Tell me I am neurotic and selfish? Feel free to add!
